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

DM asked me to help her with an on line return.
Turns out she was using the order number from shop x, to return an order from shop y.

The guy my friend met on tinder, who travelled hundreds of miles for a date then decided he didn't want to go home (without asking if it was OK with her). He walked out of his job, took months to get one here, and has slowly revealed his heavy alcoholism. I hate being around him.
She's just told me that he's also got a disabled toddler that he "might" see if he goes to pick up his stuff from his mums, which he's delayed doing for months so far.
She's also taken the huff with me because I can't afford to lend him the taxi fare to work - he doesn't like buses, apparently...

Fuck knows whats going on, but I don't think I want to be around the aftermath.

^ hm. I think I might be a bit more than mildly annoyed, tbh

Pensioners at Tesco having absolutely no idea about keeping a bit of a distance or wearing a mask.
Clearly they're indestructible.

Receiving some coaching on a task that I've completed for years - in fact I originally trained the coach how to complete the task in the first place.

Instead of filtering columns a,b,c then d of the spreadsheet I should be filtering d,c,b then a. Which incidentally ends in the exact same results! Confused

Our internet.

The cabinet at the end of the village has been knocked over by persons unknown so we've had no internet since Wednesday. We get 3G at the front of the cottage but because it's made of thick stone even that's patchy. We cannot listen to the radio, watch the TV, turn the lights off or start the robot Hoover.

I asked a company advice about fixing a broken item and they Offered to Fix it, sent it, waited, asked, waited, asked, waited, asked....best part of 30 messages back and forth now. Boss said I'd have a new one by Friday. Last Friday. It's been 3 months now. Arrrrrgh.

I ordered a pizza with extra sauce. It came with half sauce.

Half.

Sauce.

I have had to complain. I don't like complaining, I like pizza. With extra sauce.

DH has gone to bed before me, and he's pinched all the duvet already, so I know I'm facing tug of war, and I'm tired and have got backache Angry

Got drive through McDonald's this eve. They managed to get my eds right this time, Big Mac no cheese as she's allergic, but they completely forgot to put my chicken legend with cool mayo in the bag! I didn't know until we got home. I was really looking forward to it. Luckily my dh ordered a chicken mayo burger along with his Big Mac so I had that. It wasn't the same. Stern email of complaint has gone off to them again. We had a £10 off voucher for that mistake which was the last time we had McDonald's.

Missing out on another event because of bastard Covid

I ordered a posh frock from John Lewis and paid signifcantbedtra money for it to be delivered on Saturday, when I knew I’d be in. Instead, it arrived on Friday and was flung in the DC’s old Wendy house.

MissM94 · 18/09/2021 08:25

Having to pretend I'm not pregnant around my mum who tells me "you need to stop thinking about it and it'll happen" I just want to scream ITS HAPPENED. Telling me when to shag my boyfriend to get pregnant, I'm an ex smoker and she is a smoker and she smokes EVERYWHERE.. in bed, in the house, in the car and It's. Knocking. Me. Sick.. I move away and move the ashtray as I don't want second hand smoke but it's just everywhere. Oh and she flies over speed bumps and it's like someone's punching my tits. 2 weeks today till the big reveal and I can't fucking wait!

sandgrown · 18/09/2021 08:49

@MissM94 I can empathise. Before we told anyone I was pregnant we went to visit some friends who lived near a lake . They insisted we take a ride in their new speedboat. Bouncing over the lake jiggled everything and made me feel really sick!

MissM94 · 18/09/2021 11:11

@sandgrown oh nooooo! How the hell did you get thorough that 😂😂😂 I'm really struggling today I'm just so angry! It's probably because of lack of sleep but everything is on my tits today feel like I'm going to explode! Any tips to get through it? 😂😂

sandgrown · 18/09/2021 23:50

@MissM94 I found it really hard to keep quiet especially when people remarked I was putting on weight . Because of my age I was having an amnio and didn’t want to share the news until I got the result in case we had difficult decisions to make . Sometimes when I was really tired I just wanted to shout leave me alone I am flipping pregnant! . Good luck x

RosieLemonade · 19/09/2021 03:20

Had to go to a wedding of people I cannot stand. What a waste of a Saturday night. Haven't been able to sleep at all, DH came to bed and fell asleep instantly. I had been laying very still trying to get to sleep yet he still moaned at me for fidgeting. Now I'm on the sofa with a roaring throat and runny nose!

DressBitch · 19/09/2021 03:44

Tried to plan a surprise meal for my mum's birthday. Booking was for 2. Told my dad we'd all get there for 1:45 and wait inside the restaurant.

My dad decided to arrive, with my mum, at 1:30 and parked directly in front of the restaurant doors. She saw us all arrive. Surprise ruined.

Can't help but think he did it on purpose because it wasn't a day about him...

@justthecat

The cat throwing up on my bed 🙄 I only changed the sheets 2 days ago
My cat puked in my gym bag. I discovered this just I was about to shove items in said bag and rush out the door.
