Petty Things That Get On Your Nerves...


Recommended Posts

Wummin in the office next door came to ask me how to highlight a row (or column.. she didn't know the difference) on Excel.

I know how to do that. It's piss easy. But it aint my job. And I'm happy to go and help her with her computer nonsense when there's two people working here because someone can cover but she expects me to drop everything so I told her I don't know how and got her to phone IT Support.

Hopefully the IT guys will get called out often enough for basic Microsoft Office shit (she's asked me before how to save a word document) they'll just fucking send her away to get some fucking training.

Every fucker in this hospital thinks I'm a technical genius because I'm the only one here who doesn't remember black and white telly.

For the safety of everyone in the hospital I reckon you should get a new job. Someone is going to ask you how to copy and paste something one day and you're going to go all Seung-Hui Cho on the place.

I did call a patient a fucking idiot under my breath yesterday but they heard me. Asked me if I called them a fucking idiot.

Couldn't be arsed with them so said "Aye. I did"

Think they were too shocked to put a complaint in tho'

When stored in boxes and on shelves the flavouring that coats the crisps, some detachs from the crips and and settles at the bottom,

For a more flavoursome taste this is the best way to eat crisps as the the dusting of loose flavouring will now fall from bottom (which is now the open top) to top ( which is now the closed bottom) over the crisps as you eat them, rather than remain at the bottom of the bag. All packets should opening this way to optimise taste.

It's ok to hog the middle lane if the inside is one long queue of lorries, even if with the odd space, and you're keeping to 70/75 min. Otherwise just slot in behind a lorry and save fuel.

Unless you're meaning 70-75kmph you are advocating that everyone driving in an overtaking lane should be breaking the national speed limit. Slightly irresponsible...

I talked to a traffic cop who said they would never do someone for driving safely at 79 or less in a 70 limit. There's an unspoken 10% allowance for dodgy speedos.

Totally agree.  If they're doing less than 80mph they're not doing it right.

Going to pretend this thread is called "Fucking scunner". 

My return to Broadwood went well. Awful game, 88th minute equaliser for us to delay the inevitable followed by a potential own goal very late into extra time to pap us oot regardless and arsehole here lost his wallet. 

 

Edit. cannae spell either.

I put gin in my Lemsip. The alcohol goes up in the steam, really clears the tubes. It tastes better as well.

It's vital the youngsters learn these life skills. Lemsip espresso is my tip. Just enough boiling water to melt the fuckers, washed down with spirits.

I remember when I was a wee boy I used to stay with my uncle every other weekend. I have no idea why, he had 4 kids of his own, but anyway my wee cousin opened the packet like that and her twin sister told her it was wrong, so she turned it upside down and my uncle lost the rag. He was like a walking panic attack back then. 

Saying that, 5 weans running about on your only days off work... It makes sense really.
