Petty Things That Get On Your Nerves...


Recommended Posts

Put order in at counter and pay. Get a receipt with a number on it, take a seat or stand out way if seats full.

 

Everything cooked to order. Number called, Salt and vinegar on everything, lots of vinegar,

take order and leave.

Too right.  Discipline in the chip shop has gone to the dogs.

I can remember when you said "Haddock and Chips, Sir."

I blame the parents, the teachers and the EU.

The sooner we take control of our own affairs the better - and that means proper behaviour and civility in the chip shop, the way it use to be in the good ole days.

Oh dear, where has my medication gone.

What "meds" you need, our chipper sells most of yer general prescription requirements.

I saw a vacancy for a Chipmeisterubenfuhrer.  Would that be of any interest to you?

I realise that my recent complaint may not be world threatening, it is petty but it annoys me and where better to express it than on this thread.

 

Exactly. If you stand at the counter while they're cooking your fish then you're blocking the people behind from coming forward and ordering. My chippy fries the fish to order but has the steak pies and white puddings and stuff on the hotplate (whatever that thing is called) so people buying one of those can be served and out the shop before the fish is ready.

There is another local chippy that I use, only as a last resort, where they serve the queue in order so even if what you want is available they won't serve you 'til you are at the head of the queue. That also annoys me.

The chippy to which I originally referred isn't really busy enough to merit numbered service order but they take your order and payment as you come in. The staff then reel off the orders to the "cook" in the order they are taken. If some are ready before others then it is no great problem to let the customer in at the "sauce station" to get it.

Anyway I don't want to elevate this beyond my pettiness of the situation so I'll leave it there.

The wife going on a night out tonight. Five of them are meeting at one lassie's house an hour before a gig. One hour.

 

They currently have:

 

- Two pizzas(one of which the wife is taking and is the size of a fucking dinner table)

 

- A ONE HUNDRED PIECE Indian buffet platter

 

- Three share size bags of crisps

 

- Litres of vodka

 

- Prosecco

 

- a case of Stella

 

- bottles of shots

 

Five of them have sixty minutes for all that. Daft bints.  :lol:

What's the consensus on taking drink to another persons house and not drinking it?

I would assume once it's left its no longer yours.

 

Etiquette demands you leave it. It becomes property of the host or hostess.

 

This is why I actively talked her out of buying another bottle of prosecco and a case of Stella in the supermarket.  :wacko:

This week I have worked 64 hours, plus 11 hours traveling time on top. The weather has been mostly nice. F*ck everyone who has been able to take advantage of it.

Folk in filter lanes who sit there until the arrow changes green, even though there is f**k all coming.

Just go you dildo.

Those points on your license aren't reward points btw.

I take it this is a green and then if all else fails filter?

Not a straight arrow and direction arrow light?

Saw one yesterday that flashes amber when you can go and doesnt light when you cant. Weird

Saaaakes. Own goal lad. Let her buy it and talk her out of taking it when you 'learn' the timescale. Booze for you and she doesnt feel bad
