The really minor ones that make you sound like a toddler having a strop, but you want to get it off your chest!!

I'll start.

DDs nursery sends a message to the WhatsApp group whenever someone brings in snacks to share (birthday cake etc). Except.... Not when I send stuff in 😭😭😭😭
Literally sent in chocolate rice crispy cakes to share.... Nothing. Next day, Oliver's mum sends in cakes... Message in WA and lots of thank you and "sounds yummy! 😋😋😋".

waaaaaaaahhhh 😢

Couldn't possibly say anything in real life because it's super petty 🤣🤣🤣

That is annoying! Sounds like it might be a cliquey thing? I would grind my teeth and ignore.

My petty complaint: DS2, light of my life that he is, blithely driving a coach and horses through my attempts to work quietly at my desk (which is in the living room, so I don't have a leg to stand on really). He breezes downstairs in his dressing gown at about 1pm, cooks himself a large breakfast making the whole house stench of bacon (I am on a diet Angry), then parks himself in an armchair 3 feet away from my desk and proceeds to eat it, noisily, while listening to mindless crap on his phone, punctuated by the occasional loud fart. I can't even put earphones in because he's pinched and lost them Angry

My NDN is the sweetest lady but is now deaf and has dementia. She has just become bed bound and stays up to all hours listening to the TV and singing to herself VERY LOUDLY! I'm loosing sleep but can't say anything

Canteen at work starts serving lunch at 11:30 on the dot... precisely.

There could be a huge queue of those on 1st lunch, everything is ready and Under the hot plate, staff behind the hotplate, but till that clock ticks to 11:30 01, no food will be served

Where I work,they make a huge deal out of birthdays
flowers/beer and a huge fb status wishing you ‘the best birthday ever!’
worked there 6 years-I’m the only one who’s never had a sniff of a status let alone a present

im fucking good at my job-but even the lazy,entitled nobs get something
