    Two Airport related things:

    Wasted space, security areas that are crammed and have people tripping across each other, but the retail area is bloody huge.

    Those Duty shops (Dublin Terminal 2 for example) that have a winding walkway through them forcing you to walk about 500m to cover about 60m of space. You cant usually take a crow flies approach as there are a dozen gombeens and perfume spraying sales reps humping each others legs in the way.

    Numpty retired from our place about 3 weeks ago. He was a waste of space when he was here and basically was just counting down the days till his retirement. Despite being told multiple times before he went about how his work email account wouldn't work once he left he's just after calling looking for stuff out of it. And wasn't happy when he was told that the account (and everything in it) was long gone.

    I once worked with someone who didn't know how to use the phone. This only came to light when her PC stopped working, and she just sat at her desk doing nothing. When her manager asked her why she hadn't called the Help desk to get it fixed, she told her that she hadn't used her work phone since they were replaced around 2005/2006, and didn't know how to contact IT.

    I was parked in a small car park in town earlier. Came back and the car was blocked in, someone had parked behind me. Queue me giving out saying “we’re not going anywhere now, fecking eejit”. Then the lad who wasn’t parked behind me came out of a gate that led off the car park. Turns out I knew him from my last job and it’s highly likely he heard me.

    Mortified.

    I went to the park to enjoy the sunshine after work.

    I must have walked in petrol at the pump because my foot kept slipping on the clutch as I drove off. I had to pull over and wipe my foot in the grass.

    I'm fairly easygoing but even I'm raising an eyebrow at the ex's latest acquisitions which he's added to his collection in the garden.

    I spend a lot time repeating '' I'm afraid I have no idea what that is. It doesn't belong to me.'' Someone even lectured me on letting a perfectly good thing go to waste.

    Do I look like I fix cars and bicycles ?

    Reapeating to myself ''not my house , none of my business ''

    People who care about the environment. For example they'd give out about plastic on a packet or a straw but they have no issue flying all around the World for fun and spending a load on clothes and electrical items they don't need!

    That's quite nasty and not in the spirit of the thread at all.
    I've noticed you've made other similar posts like that over the last few months. No one likes a smart ass. Its very trivially annoying and its spoiling the thread.

    Car tax, car insurance, foreign stag and a week in NY all on the horizon within the next month.

    While I cannot wait for the holiday, the hit all at once to my bank account is making me slightly anxious.

    Yippee, a frugal lifestyle coming up.

    Its amazing though how often so many things that need paying for all arrive at the same time.

    The lack of sunscreen is ta today . I'm very anti-hat but found one I like. Being contrary, I couldn't just like a hat from Ireland . I'm waiting for the courier with it.


    Come on Dave from Dpd. I need you to save my weekend . My freckles are joining up at this stage.

    People in massive cars/SUVs pushing everybody to the side of the road and when they get to the car park, as I witnessed with some dullard in an enormous Audi Q7 today, they take up two car spaces in a packed car park with their contraption.

    If car park owners had the balls to fine/clamp these people who park into another car space, they'd suddenly develop more consideration for the rest of us.

    Adding gate to the end of a word or broken word/initials for any scandal or story breaking etc.

    Commenting under any or every photograph "That would make a great album cover". No it wouldn't f*ck off. #albumgate

    This. I really dislike shopping. I was just thinking about how to live a less consumer-centric lifestyle in a city. The amount of absolutely awful, sugar-filled junk I had to wade through in the local supermarket to get my few things gets more shocking. This pride of place given to awful, sugar-filled "food" has become much worse in every supermarket chain. There should be a Boards forum with advice to help people detox from relentless consumerism.
