People who speed up when you're walking behind them and then slow down again, only to speed up once more and repeat the process - they'll then keep glancing over their shoulder and shooting you dirty looks as if it's being done deliberately. Of loving course I'm not going to pass you if you keep doing this.

Gen. Ripper posted:People who obsessively abstain from using the word "retard" and its derivatives, chastise others for using it, and call it the "r-word" like it's somehow EXACTLY as offensive as the n-word. No. No, it really isn't, you goddamn pearl-clutchers, and I say this as somebody who's been diagnosed with a developmental disorder (Asperger's). Well if someone's going to try and get snooty about sexist and racist language, why should they consider the use of retard, etc, acceptable? I've never gotten a straight answer on this.

Baldbeard posted:They shouldn't. I absolutely love this post, and I'm not being ironic in any way. I work with people who are physically and mentally disabled so it's frustrating as gently caress to see people get on their high horse over bigoted terminology, except for those retards, heh.

Yeah, agreeing with the others. If you want specific change gently caress off to a bank - looking at you folk who buy something using nothing but 5p and 2p coins you were "saving up".

Oh my god stop checking your loving phone in the doorway of a shop you cretin. You automatically lose any right to get annoyed with other people when they push past you despite speaking up.

Thin Privilege posted:Commercials about some emotional thing (say, a cancer drug) where they have a "patient" and at the end they have a medium shot of them sitting and they have this expression of like, I don't know what to call it but their mouth is half smiling and they have these eyes that look kind of weepy but without tears. Anyways the part that pisses me off on top of the aforementioned poo poo is that this "patient" always makes a really slow, obvious swallow like they're ~choking back tears~ it's so fake and forced ugghhjjj I am very ANGRY There's a set of adverts doing the rounds over here which is about disadvantaged kids being offered support and help, so they can live up to their potential. That's a fantastic initiative but I'm irrationally irritated by the song using a slow, grungy version of Everyone Wants To Rule The World as its backing track. That song is meant to sound happy and perky because the lyrics are being subversive and mocking the sort of people who think of them as literal.

Tea Bone posted:I received an email from my ISP informing me that due to their improved customer service my broadband will be going up by 2.50 a month. If they provided decent a broadband service in the first place they wouldn't need to provide better customer service. I'm guessing you're with BT? I got a similar email from them after spending several fruitless weeks trying to downgrade my service to save money. I don't need super fast loving lightning broadband, you assholes put me on there without making it clear, and are now feeding me complete horse poo poo to delay a downgrade.

GOTTA STAY FAI posted:Comcast pulled this poo poo with me and I was furious. "Hey guys I need internet--just internet--and all I'm doing is light-duty stuff. I do not need TV or phone or a DVR or whatever. I do not need a custom T1 line. I want the cheapest possible cable internet package you have because it will suit my needs perfectly." My brother in arms.  I was furious when I looked at the account in detail - curious how said information package was delayed until after the line had been set-up - and saw how much poo poo I'd been strung up for.

Unrelated, but I get annoyed when asking people for sources or information on what they're ranting about is taken as a disagreement. Like, gently caress off, I know Donald Trump is a terrible person, I'm just asking you to shut up ranting for five seconds and tell me exactly what the problem is so I understand what it is he's actually done.

If someone is behind you on the street and speeding up to go by, please don't also speed up to keep a small distance between you, only to slow back down and close the gap again when you're several feet away. Let them pass.

When I worked retail I was the guy who did that. Talking to myself allowed me to keep track of what needed doing - I got very snippy when people assumed I was talking to them.

I always made a point of asking my old boss about holiday when his boss was present. Surprisingly, I never saw a request "lost" or forgotten about once I started doing that...

Spent all week so far working with temp staff that can barely speak English, which is a pretty goddamn big hurdle when dealing with a lot of older, generally racist old folk. Communication is key in this job and its getting pretty loving ridiculous how reliant on agencies we've become.

yeah I eat rear end posted:I didn't show up to work for like a month straight and nobody including my boss noticed so this is probably accurate. I'm beginning to think your work isn't actually that important if nobody gives a poo poo about it. Do the fire drill, you numpty.

Pastry of the Year posted:the Leper's Colony isn't viewable in the Android version of the Awful app < Used to work with one nurse that was queasy around blood and vomit. Fair enough - we were in a residential home at the time, and these weren't hugely common for the people we were looking after. She took a job in a hospital. Yeeeeah, didn't think that one through too well. Within a week she'd quit that and was trying for her old job - was all but told to gently caress off by management because she'd apparently been slating the home and its carers. We are a bunch of drama queens.
