What's pissing us all off today?

DS is having surgery next week and tomorrow we've got to go to a pre-clinic to see the pharmacist, the anaesthetist and the surgical registrar. This apparently can take 3 to 4 hours. We've booked DS's support worker to come to help as DS is not good at sitting in a hospital.

Last round of surgery, it was covid and all of this was done by phone. This is going to suck.

Got a message from our secondary school this morning that they will be closed to most years forv4 days over the next 2 weeks for teachers strike. After closing 2 days last week due to excessive heat. I'm lucky in that DH works from home, but still have to juggle on one of the days. I can imagine some parents will have a struggle. Even though at secondary, wouldn't want to leave the kids for a whole day at home alone.

So many things!
People who steal saplings taken from the Sycamore Gap tree.
The weather being all over the place
Not enough sleep
Not being able to settle to read anything
Why M&S aren't selling their paprika hasselback potatoes during the summer

Knock the phone out of their pigging hands. Ridiculous morons

Having to dodge people who walk down the middle of the pavement with their eyes glued to their phone. Look where you're going!

They certainly should - they did all my Dad's (not a hoarder, but he had a LOT of sheds full of things that might have come in useful one day...)

My neighbour is really winding me up
She rents from the council and we own

(I'm not a snob,this is context)

She's a raging narcissist and has taken a dislike to us (only us) and spends her time screaming down the phone or kicking her yappy dog outside

It yaps at nothing or if we try to use our own garden (then she or her fella scream at us for 'setting it off')

Yep,they get a yappy breed and it's all our fault it barks

They dump their rubbish at the side of their house and it's all our fault they end up with rats

They don't talk to each other-they scream at each other while what sounds like them slinging plates/cups at each other

She thinks nothing of banging on our front door to scream at us over nothing

Their fucking dog woke me up at 6:30 this morning and I'm at work until 10pm (she doesn't work)

We couldn't use our garden in the heatwave (partly because I had a trapped nerve in my hip,I couldn't walk and partly because of the dog)

Council don't want to know-they say they'll 'have a word' but don't bother

My next step will be my mp

Oh,and I'm going round in circles trying to book a smear test

You have to book online,tried that and was sent a message to say 'ring this number'

I rang the number,'oh,you need to book online'

Tried (again) to book online-'ring this number'

I'm so fed up

Pissed off that a peer, who thinks he’s my boss (hell no - he’s an equal) is trying to tell me how to run my team and causing the team great upset because of his piss poor planning landing huge stress and extra workload on us at the last minute when we have a massive project swinging into the active phase today!!!🤬

Having cancer

In defence of comic sans, it’s the easiest font for people with LD/dyslexia to decipher. Otherwise I would agree with you that it should be banned forthwith.

Would they do all the sheds and garages too do you think?

I really miss Wilkinsons. We had a large store, we could get everything there; toiletries, cleaning products, pet food, snacks, chocolate! Now we have to go to 2 or 3 different shops. 🤬🤬

My trousers are too tight after a fantastic two week holiday. I don't drink alcohol, but, by god, did I stuff my face with lovely food. Now my buttons are paying the price and I feel fat.

Work going on about their profits, while wanting us to work more and giving pay rises that are less than inflation.

Person at work who seems to ignore everything I say/ask/write until someone else says the same thing.

Generally having no time, not enough space in the house, too much to juggle. And the ex-husband calling me lazy (while he rarely has the kids and does nothing with them)

Do a quick pass through and take away anything that looks like it might be useful/interesting (folders/letters/photos) - put them in several bin bags to go through later when you've got the strength. Then get a house clearance firm to quote for doing everything - they've seen it all. Some are linked with auction houses and will sell off anything that has a value and take that off their charges. There will be a cost to it, but (assuming you're the executor and/or beneficiary of the will) it will be something that can be charged to the estate as it will need to be done before the house is sold. Its really worth it in terms of reducing stress.

Great stuff

I’m pissed off that my HRT doesn’t seem to be working and I am constantly boiling hot and overly emotional. Trying to speak to a dr is so difficult and they won’t even look at my request for an appointment for 4/5 weeks. I could scream.

Husband.

We don’t all wish to hear your conversations, please be quieter

Everyone keeps snacking on the packed lunch stuff I buy and then wondering why their packed lunches are shit.

Our financial situation has changed and I cannot afford to rebuy the same stuff 3 times a week now people! Reign in your greedy and eat the meals I make and the damn fruit in the fruit bowl!

@Charlize43 and @Nsky62 many years ago I was , along with paid carers, supporting my friend's elderly mum.
At a SS mtg held in her bedroom/living room,I asked one of the several people there to talk more quietly .
The room was crowded and it was overwhelming , distracting from the issue at hand .
I was told in no uncertain terms that in the African culture it was normal to speak loudly and that I was being racist .

True. There is so much sugar in foods, that there does not need to be, imo.

DH likes them. They were a novelty that I'm fed up of. Because I did the Tesco order for our holiday this month, I've chosen normal buns. I'd like to see him find brioche buns in the depths of the Pembrokeshire countryside.

We completed on our new house yesterday and judging by the state of it they stopped cleaning it the second they accepted our offer.
I wanted to cry when I walked in.
Manky fuckers!
So now I have to spend my entire day off scrubbing the whole house!
Luckily we aren’t moving in straight away.
But seriously what the fuck is wrong with people, they haven’t even hoovered!
