Robin.Hood Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 Pointless smalltalk conversations Every week at work Who've pars got this week? QOTS at home You going aye Yes, I'm going. I've got a season ticket. I've told you this about fifty fucking times. Two weeks later... You going aye, do you go to most home games? Count to ten Its nice to chat but genuinely some of the patter from OF fans is diabolical. They talk about football all day but couldn't tell you anything worthwhile.What league are you in noo? Least they are talking to you , I'm guessing you couldnt just tell them to be quiet as you dont wanna hear it, if its such an issue ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.A.F.C Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 Least they are talking to you , I'm guessing you couldnt just tell them to be quiet as you dont wanna hear it, if its such an issue ?Nah, they talk out loud all day long. Its divided into two camps. Talkers and earphone wearers.Some of it is ok but I've noticed if I work when they're off it's much easier to concentrate. In the grand scheme of things it's not bad. I also dont see why management lets them do it. Occasional chat yes but it's an obvious distraction. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes that’s kinda the whole fucking point, what’s the use in asking these pointless questions that you don’t actually care about the answer? You missed the usual one. "Can I go in your suitcase?" "No, you'd be way over the baggage weight allowance, plus I actually need my suitcase for my clothes." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a guy in my work who is similar to this, although he does appear to pay a bit more attention to Dumbarton games in that he knows the scores etc. It's usually "good/bad result at the weekend for yez!" followed by "you going this week?". I know he doesn't really care but he's one of these fuckers that verbalises every thought. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favourite thing about shite football chat at work comes in the run up to an ugly sister's game. When I'm asked who the Sons are playing that week, I'll answer then ask who their team are up against. It is almost always met with incredulity that I don't know it's an old firm match. I know full well but I love the look on there faces. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find with some OF supporters of english teams they're not really proper football fans. Its more about supporting a winning side and using it for banter.Sometimes they'll put you down for supporting a wee team when they've been to about two games in the last five years.I genuinely like to know about all teams and like view from the terrace and off the ball due to their mindset of theres more than rangers and celtic.TBH in all the places I've worked they've made up the majority of football people and I find the OF talk tedious as f**k. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTChris Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 I’m sure I’ve posted this before but adults asking (ie expecting) you to give them money on their birthday. Grow up.Also, my next door neighbour has just been wheeled into an ambulance that is parked outside my house and I don’t want to seem nosy by staring but I also want to know what’s wrong with him. Hope he’s alright. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
