Petty Things That Get On Your Nerves...


Recommended Posts

I got reprimanded at work for that not two weeks ago. About ten of us round a table at a meeting and I just passed the card on.

That's ridiculous

I never put money in or sign cards for people I barely know

"Plate of food".

They must say this about 100 times in any BBC food programme. What's wrong with "dish" or "meal" occasionally?

Blah plate of food oh mate plate of food ha ha mate plate of food blah blah seasoning plate of food plate of food plate of food.

Buy a thesaurus or f@ck off. C*nts.

The last time I put money in was for some crazy burd's birthday who the night before her b'day was arrested, sacked and never got the money.

My £10 just lay in someone's drawer for months. I didn't want to be that guy who asked for it back.

It's probably been pocketed by now.

Don't worry not officially reprimanded but the boss had a word. Told her to give me a tenner for my pals birthday.

Pisses me off. I have a team of 13. All women. If it's not someone's birthday it's a baby/retiral/New job/engagement/flowers for a broken arm/flowers cause there mum died.

Got pulled up again this week as I hadn't replied to an email asking if I was coming to a cup of tea for some lassie upstairs who is leaving. I don't know what the poor cow even looks like.

I've went into a new team at work and was immediately asked if I wanted to go for a meal and could chip in money for the girl away on maternity.

I'm the bad guy for declining as I don't really know them and was unable to afford it just now.

Just stick a handful of coppers in

I'm pretty sure he already feels the system is policed to a much greater degree than it should be.

Collections are just the worst. Peer pressure in all reality, you don't want to be seen as a skinflint, but why should you put in for someone you barely know?

I'll put in for a collection only if it's someone I like or know really well. Anybody else can f**k off.
