The simple art lost of when opening a door and checking if someone is behind you to hold it open for them, totally lost on the younger generation, it’s just fucking rude and bordering on total retardedness!! Fucking knuckle dragging imbeciles
Those fucking leaf blowers, the women next door spent the majority of yesterday afternoon blowing them into our front garden.
just who you want saying Covid is a hoax
A pointless activity this time of year.
Anything for a bit of BBC bashing from the right. Considering it’s current output I can’t for the life of me figure out why they still do it. Old habits perhaps.
People who don't have their house/flat number on their property or it's really hard to see.
Who are you trying to hide from?
Who are you trying to hide from?
Yeah!
And people who name their house when it’s just a standard semi or three bed. Fair does if you live in a grand country house but otherwise you’re a wanker.
The guardian and the Mirror have been all over it as well - often using the classic “too ill to talk” it’s a bizarre set of events if people were paid to fake bank accounts and falsify bizarre e mails
As someone who used to deliver for amazon i confirm this is so facking annoying!
And other than just polite, it’s actually quite a sensible thing to do today to stop someone else having to touch the door handle!
Along the same lines, when you open the door for someone and they don’t say thanks. Really pisses me off, I just say you’re welcome really loud and make it dead awkward
Im not that intimidating to look at and have quite a punchable face so i only say that in my head
Same as letting people through in traffic.
I forgot my daughter was in the back once and ended up calling somebody some names on a summers day with windows open for not saying thanks.
Where is this Nick?It's much cheaper than the royal mail to use a courier drop off though. I have only just realised that but have found a shop where you can go in and do it yourself
With Hermes you can go to the "Premier" in Longford by Capitol Gym. You just do it yourself and put everything in a basket.
Saves you holding people up in One Stop.
Yeah, but Hermes are utter shit, and lose parcels far more than the other ones.
To be honest I haven't had an issue with loss, had a couple of breakages though.
Still, a lot cheaper than Royal Mail and don't need to piss about going to a Post Office between 9 and 5. Also quicker delivery times and fully tracked
I was wary of using them over Royal Mail so started split testing but found the process easier, cheaper and quicker.
Yep....by far the worst of a really shit bunch. Its quite surprising that several large retailers such as John Lewis still use them.
I ship spare parts around quite frequently as part of my business. I've had & subsequently closed business accounts with most of them over the years.
Currently use TNT (now part of FedEx) for UK stuff & UPS for international deliveries.
But for complete unreliability, rough handling & ridiculously timed delivery attempts.....you cant beat Hermes.

Ah OK....If you're gonna compare Hermes with Royal Mail then you're looking at two very similar smelly piles of shit.
Exactly!
If it was high value items / large items then I'd be looking at other places. I wouldn't ship a TV with either of them.
for a £7 mug, people won't pay the same again for delivery!
Have to say, if I know something's delivered by Hermes, I'll avoid ordering it - had that many issues with them.To be honest I haven't had an issue with loss, had a couple of breakages though.

tbf the current driver around here is pretty good, so he'd better not leave, or get sick with Covid!
That's what Premium Delivery options are for
If people want to pay more for delivery they can, if they want it cheap they get Hermes.
I would love to catch one of my mates doing that for a selfie. They would be terrorised for the months for it.
I still remember when we found out one was putting oil on to take selfies of his body, sent them to everybody in his phone book. Nowadays it's fashionable and groups of lads get together and do it. What the fuck has happened to the world.
