Frustrating Things

So instead, what you’re going to get is a brain dump of things that are currently annoying me more than they should…
- People who have no consideration for others. : I get really annoyed by this – it’s not difficult, that if you (for example) use up the last of the toilet roll, you replace it with a fresh one, rather than leaving just the carboard tube. Or if you use the last of the milk, you go out and buy some more. It’s not difficult – but so many people seem to have no thoughts on that score, so long as they’re not the ones that are affected
- Waiting : OK, I just want to know about the job I interviewed for last week. I know, they said I might not hear ’til today. But just get on with it, I want to know. (Yes, it’s a selfish perspective, but sod it)
- Incompetence : (It’s just taken me four attempts to spell that rightly) What with the office move/non-move/move/partial-move/non-move, and the efforts of other tossers this week, I’ve really had enough
- Timescales : Time just seems to be racing past at the moment, and I’d like it to slow down a little bit, please. Deadlines and events are coming up at a disturbing pace, and there just doesn’t seem to be enough time to get it all done
Edited in the name of pedantry above and beyond the call of duty There’re There’s probably others too, but they’ll do for now…
Lyle, I really know what you mean about timescales ….. my life feels like it’s flying by. But alas … there is nothing that you can do about it ….. theres only one thing more certain than the sun rising in the morning, and that’s the setting of the sun in the evening – marking yet another notch on the bedpost of life! That’s how I feel anyway, I’m just trying to max the laughs and minimise the shite things.
Is now a bad time to point out that you ought to have said “there’re” and not “there’s” there?
Ok, Ok, I’m going…
Ah, feck yer 😛
And in light of all that pedantry, you still didn’t notice that I’d mis-typed “cardboard” earlier on…
