Sitting in the toilet at work and having some cvnt come in and apparently oblivious to the presence of other people start talking to themselves in the next cubicle.

Some arse bandit from another department who has this twatty Irish lardlump of a boss just came in and started mocking his Irish boss with a comedy accent, not realising the boss himself was in the next ****ing cubicle the dumb fool. He quickly quietened down once he heard movement in my cubicle (i stirred intentionally to get him to stfu and thus help him out) but I'm in no doubt that the Irish boss heard the whole thing.

What a ****ing melon.

On the subject of weather forecasters - ****ing pick a forecast and stick to it, stop changing from torrential rain to bright sunshine for one day on a daily ****ing basis. 

 

That does seem to actually happen with the weather here though. Tbh I don't actually know why they bother forecasting in this country because the fvcking weather changes so fast and so unpredictably anyway they're wrong most of the time.

The **** were you sharing a cubicle with your boss for?

The Met Office, by the way, employs 1700 people. Whilst I accept that we need to employ people to look at things like flood risk, presumably that kind of trends analysis is hardly changing on a daily basis. 1700 people to come up with:

 

'there's a likelihood of some sunshine, but a chance of some scattered showers too.' in the summer, and

'it will be overcast and wet'  in the winter.

 

"and that's yer weather"

That 'Whistle/Whistling' message alert tone on the newer mobiles (e.g. Samsung Galaxy II, or iPhones).

Why is it that withdrawing money at a cashpoint take me about 30 seconds, yet whoever is in front of me always manages to take literally four minutes? How long can you legitimately spend at a cashpoint? It took me less time to arrange my ruddy mortgage!

:frusty: :frusty: :frusty:

 

Cashpoint morons warned to plan ahead

 

SIMPLY deciding in advance what you want from a cashpoint can stop others wanting to kill you, it has been claimed.

The Institute for Studies found that potentially dangerous bank machine deliberation could be avoided by planning your transaction before reaching the front of the queue.

Professor Henry Brubaker said: “If you’re waiting to use a cash dispenser, ask yourself a few questions. The main one is ‘how much money do I want?’

“It’s good to have a specific figure in your head, for example £20. Or any multiple of ten, whatever.

“Bear in mind that cashpoints are not places for quiet contemplation, phone calls or socialising. Nor are they crude arcade machines for your stupid, idle amusement.â€

Retail assistant Mary Fisher said: “But I like to be ‘in the moment’ when I’m operating a cash machine.

“It’s like free jazz, there are no rules and time is not a factor. I’ve just got three different cards – two of which have expired – and a headful of vague possibilities.â€

Office worker Tom Logan said: “I enjoy going to cashpoints and pressing all the different buttons because of the lovely computer music it makes. It’s like my own private Kraftwerk concert.

“How could anyone possibly have a problem with that?â€

I tip my cap to Coke's ability to tap into the "disabled market".

Well I got my Doctorate and changed my surname by deed pole to Pepper. Makes choosing soft drinks a lot simpler

I absolutely did not at all stand in the Sainsburys local on Narb Rd with Mrs Finners, turning round every coke bottle there to find ourselves.

Not at all. That would be juvenile, cheesy and embarrassing...

Teachers who only skim read work. I wrote 'I am a fish' in the middle of my English essay and she didn't notice :D

 

 

Maybe she thought, "you know, what? He IS a fish" due to your short memory span.

I actually did not, to be fair.

We were mostly just seeing if they had our names out of individual curiosity.

Although, we did leave them side by side on the shelf. D'awewwww.

Must have been funny for other people to see Tony and James side by side.
