What has really annoyed you this week

work related
asked one of my team to complete a task that involved looking at the notes prior.
he sent me a message asking me to bring him up to speed because he has no time to read notes.
honestly.
why do I bother?

My boss:

1. Not putting through my expenses since January so I’ve got to wait another month before getting it in my pay
2. having a 1-1 with me, talking about work and not once asking how I am (despite knowing I’ve had devastating news in the last 2 weeks)
3. asking me to do a piece of work (the same one) in two different formats in case she looks at the version in excel and decides a table in word would be easier to read (fuck my life!).

i think the devastating news has meant my tolerance levels have significantly fallen.

My 'to do' list. Every time I cross something off, I think of at least two more things I need to add.

^This. A pair of weasels.

Parcel delivery.. 3 times this week I've come home to find parcels propped up against the front door, fully visible from the street. There are bins they could put the parcels by, or better still knock on the door! The last one they did knock, I was indoors, about 8 paces away from the front door, and they legged it so quick I couldn't see them. But they didn't know I was in, didn't wait to find out, just left the package outside.

My mum.

My hourly paid colleagues complaining that they wanted a bigger pay increase in April whilst I’m salaried therefore I’ve had 50p in 2.5 years.

I know I’m so very unreasonable but it’s really grinding on me!

A hospital telephone consultation, got a call an hour and a half after the given time to say its been cancelled.

Other people deciding what I'm going to do with my own private time.

Bloody cinch. I ordered a car online to be delivered yesterday but I checked the MOT status on the morning and it was showing as having 2 months left. Their promise is that they always have 6 months MOT left - so I queried it. They obviously forgot. They are now going to MOT it 'as soon as possible' and give me a revised delivery date.
So I didn't get my car, had to reinsure my old car and I have to take another day off work. Grrr.

I’m also pissed off that my DH went to Morrisons and forgot to buy the dolly mixtures I’ve been craving all day even though it was the last thing I said to him before he left and I rang him while he was there.

I’m going to LTB

People who keep posting yet another thread about adolescence on Mumsnet without checking the 383747474 existing ones and replying on one of those. 🤦🏼‍♀️😣 My whole active feed is FULL of it and it’s giving me the rage.

3 very near misses in the car this week.

1. Waiting at crossroads, lights go green and I start to go forwards to turn right , car beside me turning left , nutter in a fiat 500 comes flying across on the red light, misses me by inches and went on the wrong side of the road to miss the car turning beside me - a few seconds either way and there would have been a multi car pile up as there was also a car facing me but a few yards back, intending to go straight on. I tried to report the driver as I have the dashcam footage but there is no actual way of doing it online unless there has been an accident.
2. Driving behind DH this morning ( going to drop off my car for MOT) idiot in a huge SUV decided he didn’t like me doing just the speed limit and tailgated me then swerved in between me and DH then slammed his brakes on. He was then in the wrong lane at the roundabout and nearly hit a bus when he suddenly went across all 3 lanes.
3. Coming back from getting my car at 3pm, Was almost wiped out by a black audi overtaking a line of stationary traffic coming right towards me , doing at least 70 in a 30. I managed to get over just in time, luckily the lane beside me had a gap - I don’t know how he didn’t take my wing mirror off . DH was 4 cars behind me and thought I was going to be hit head on.

I've had to rearrange a royal mail collection three times, they are lying saying noone was in when they called. They haven't called. We are housebound pretty much so have been in since last Sunday I'm getting hassled by my eBay buyer as I am supposed to despatch within three days. They don't message till after the post office is shut so I can't do anything about it.

Ugh, I'm so sorry you experienced that💐

Same

No, Habitat. I'm getting a refund and buying another one.

Work, lazy shits who think they can do half the work of others who all get paid the same as them! So annoying!

Never any peace and quiet at work which makes everyone tired and irritable

Having to travel by bus today and no one offered me a seat even though I’m obviously disabled (walking sticks and a very visible tremor). I actually asked if anyone could spare their seat, silence. So I had to ask the driver to let me back off. I actually sat and cried a little in the bus stop afterwards. People’s attitudes to disabled people has really deteriorated lately with the government insinuating we are all on the scam for benefits and don’t work. It’s upset me more than it usually would this week for obvious reasons.

My train was 10 minutes late which meant I missed my connection to London. Next train gets in 2 hours later, and because of buying tickets in a slightly roundabout way, can't claim delay repay so have to buy a new ticket.

I bought a sofa in January and they called me again this week to say it was delayed until the end of May.
