Delivery drivers who don't use my doorbell which I can hear throughout my house and instead knocking which I can only hear downstairs

I then miss my delivery and then have to collect it or wait another day!

Evri left a parcel in my bin yesterday. Didn’t even post a note or send an email. I found it when I took the recycling out! I was in too. Bellends. That would’ve ended up in the back of a truck on another day.

Somebody's been to their local CO-OP today to post a parcel; then get four cans of Special Brew, a multipack of Walkers ready salted, a small loaf of Mother's Pride, a tub of margarine and twenty B&H.

Maybe someone can shed light on this, but the thick cunts in hospitality industry/restaurants.

Nandos last night, no white wine for her at all, but a tesco express was literally next door. Sorry, no white wine.

Right, what about food, anything off the menu? oh we've not run out of any food.

Place order, 15 mins later.... oh we only have 3 of the 4 orders. 4x butterfly chicken breasts ordered. You have whole chickens though yeah? Yeah we do. Well can't you take one off that? Oh no we can't.

Pub lunch today, waiter spends 15 odd minutes watching us study the menu. She decides on lasagne and me Rib eye, oh we haven't got that sorry.

So a) why didn't you tell us before and b) could you not go shop and then use that to sell your overpriced shite no?

Best one was about a year ago when nandos had ran out of pineapple rings...

"Hospitality industry struggling after Covid"

Think on your feet you thick cunts.

When you have to pay full price on a train and there aren’t any seats.

If they overbook it and you have to stand up then you should get a discount.

It's worse if you book in advance to get a seat, and then the buggers have all sat in your seat and blocked the aisles so you can't even get to it to ask somebody to move...

I’ve been getting the train to Brum 2 or 3 times a week since October and I think I’ve managed to get a seat three times.

Had a reserved seat on a Friday from Euston once. Packed train, and got to my seat and a scruffy youth was in it. Got him to move after showing ticket, and he left grumbling and muttering.

10 minutes later, there was an announcement: we apologise for this replacement service, and that reserved seating is no longer valid….

Those private parking fines. Got one sent to my parents the other day from…wait for it, May 2018. What the fuck? Gone up to £150 because apparently they had an incorrect address for me and been trying to find me for nearly 5 years.

No idea if I had parked somewhere dodgy back then obviously, I left the country 6 months later and haven’t lived back since. Just paid it cause I can’t be arsed but those companies are fucking scum of the earth

When you pay full price and the ticket isn’t checked once. I went from the Midlands to Scotland a few months ago and it wasn’t checked at all. Could have saved quite a bit bit

I had a CCJ on my credit file from a parking ticket I never received. when I looked into it seems it's a pretty common tactic to send them to the wrong address, or not at all. Cost me a small fortune to get it removed

Then I had to go to court to argue the original ticket which turned out to be a free supermarket car park in Stratford which can be accessed by going past an ANPR camera for a private car park you have to pay for. There's loads of people with problems at the same car park on line and it seems a total lottery what happens if you take it to court and argue it. In my case the judge was changed at the last minute, clearly hadn't read the paperwork submitted and ruled I had to pay despite the parking company not bothering to turn up or submit any evidence I'd ever actually been in the car park

System needs a complete overhaul, totally not fit for purpose

Being called grumpy for not being head over heels, fully invested in the whole Christmas thing.

I suppose it annoys those who try ramming the festivities down your throat though, that makes me smile.

How many times have you seen it or been sent it today though?

I think I was mainly triggered as the first two who sent it me are rugby fans.

I've obviously got less friends than you as I only got it the once.

But yes, it was from a rugger bugger.

Women (I guess you could include men), that would be otherwise pretty attractive but dress like shit because it's fashionable.

Don't get it at all.

Get to fuck. It's useless.

Got an appointment but it's ok it's October 2023.

Have to sort it myself again. Wish it was possible to opt out sometimes.

Can I get money back that would go towards it? Happily would.

Think I'll need to look into health insurance to be honest. It's a joke.

That’s not how taxes work. Just like you can’t claim pension spending back cos you’re not a pensioner or education spending cos you’ve got no kids.

Don’t think insurance will cover pre existing conditions (which I assume you’ve got if you’re already at this stage), you’d probably have to pay for whatever it costs. Dunno though, I’ve never really looked into it, though my new job gives me some cover so I might if it comes to it.
