I bought tinned sweet corn from Asda rather than Tesco or aldi, I always buy the cheapest but this one is disgusting and flavourless. I bought 3 tins of it too Angry

Colleague X saying govt department Y already reported on Z. There are subtle reasons why that's untrue but I won't convince X we should do our own report. Pah

Boris. He annoys me every single bloody day - even when I don't see him on TV or hear him on the radio.

My midwife appointment. She rushes me in, talks about my weight, pushes paper, then rushes me out. I dread the appointments!

Driving. I don’t drive very much now with wfh, but I’m suddenly really aware how many bad drivers there out there. I drive a motorway and swear I was the only person in the left lane whilst everyone else was in the middle just plodding.

Getting blanked by some cliquey mums on the school run (but I’m flavour of the month of they want to leave their kids with me to walk in- so they can rush off to work). CF’s.

DS woke me up when he went to the loo at 4:20am and I couldn’t get back to sleep.

My recovery from Covid. It's 2 steps forward one back. Today is 'one back' day and I'm annoyed.

Snarky e-mail from someone I work with about the fact that I e-mailed him a document that he needs in hard copy (just a black and white A4 page of writing). Apparently 'everyone' knows he doesn't have a printer so apparently, I will need to drive to his home to take him a copy (and he has cc'd lots of people in the company when he tells me this- implying that I am incompetent in having e-mailed it to him). We have all been working from home for over a year now, printing this document is specifically part of his job (just as sending it to him by e-mail is mine). He is well off and lives in a large house, so could easily afford a printer and has plenty of room for one.

Actually, this has more than mildly annoyed me- the man is an arse

My DH just continually shoving stuff in the overflowing kitchen bin so much so that it's sticking to the bin lid but rather than be a grown up and changing the bin and putting it in the outside wheelie bin he just keeps pushing stuff down 😤. I should have left it for him but I can't stand it when it's overflowing.

Everything!

Upstairs neighbours started doing loud DIY at 8am.
My flatmate's coat has been stolen from our porch.
I waited in all day for a builder who has yet to turn up
I got notice of an interview, which requires lesson planning, in less than 24 hours.
It's raining and so I had to dry my interview clothes indoors.

I am fed up!

I made the toddlers have a good walk around the park with the promise of the playground at the end. When we got there it was padlocked shut for no apparent reason. Nothing vandalised, no one working on it, just why??

Trying to cancel a meeting with DD's teacher, only for her to come back and say "actually, it would more convenient to go ahead with it as planned."

Convenient for you, perhaps, but it's no longer at all convenient for me, and I'm as I'm not actually your pupil and don't have to do what you say, I'm not coming. Angry

My dd is adamant that she doesnt want to use the laptop that she used for school exams and now that she is in uni and wants a newer one cause everyone else has got new ones and she says our laptop is too big/heavy.

The one we have is a cracker but I dont want her not to have a laptop for uni!

Conducting interviews. Interviewee late, which pushed the rest of them back, which meant I had to run to be on time to pick up dc, which meant I got a blister on my heel.

Five minutes after shutting down my work laptop, my manager texts needing information that I've already sent. I then have to start up everything again and resend it. Hmm

I had just made a cup of coffee when I had to dash to take DD’s PE kit to her before school started. When I came back my coffee was cold. Sad

My freezer is pretty well stocked as I've been batch cooking lately. Went to get something out to defrost this morning and something else fell out. I put it back, then something else fell out. Repeat x 6. Just threw it in and slammed the door on it in the end. Seems like a problem for another day.

The women on the next table to my friend and me in the cafe. They were sat at a table for 2 when another woman joined them and made such a fuss about having to get another chair. My friend offered her the free chair next to her but the woman declined. She then spent 5 minutes wafting herself and saying she was so flustered because she had had to drag a chair from another table.
Then another woman joined them but there wasn't enough space for her to sit with them. What a palava.
