Wonder how I got a three star, seems bizaarre.
Not sure what the average rating is for people.
Monster Munch, about 5 in a bloody bag now, get more in the ****ing bag, esp the beef ones 🤬
Some people have no idea how a rating system works.Quote:

I remember when I was an apprentice we got 6 monthly reviews through CITB who would come out on site and ask the tradesmen for comments and a score out 5 for certain things, I would never get a 5 because for some reason the Joiners thought they were to score me out of 5 on how good a joiner I was at the time and not as an apprentice, used to do my nut in.
The amount of things I'm seeing online about how Satanists are running the world, it's the new flat earth
I noticed they have done this with a lot of snacks, their aim is to get the bag down to 100 calories or below then they can sell them as that. Monster Munch are just 20g in a pack and 98 cals, Skips are 13.1g per pack and 100cals. Space Raiders are down to 13g per pack and 100 cals too. The smallest pack I seen was for Ringos, 12g a pack and 100cals. Can see the sense in it to help people on calorie controlled diets but for everyone else its like getting a quarter bag of crisps!!Quote:

My favourite part of that is that you're not wondering about the 1 star review you listed, clearly content that there was an occasion where that was merited. :greengrinQuote:

I didn't realise they'd see the tip before rating. Might be that, I don't always tip.

At the meeting with the Course Director and all the class reps, other reps mentioned the same thing about this lecturer and the Course Director said he wish he’d known there was an issue sooner.Quote:

Work team meetings. Almost all of them, especially when mass participation affairs. Window dressing, could've been an email pish
An email push?Quote:

Leaving aside that lot of them are far from brief, every single one would be at least a little briefer if that empty phrase were left out.
Another bin related one that could perhaps be on the driving pet peeves thread.
For some reason in my street, the food waste bin men just seem chuck the caddies any old place after they’ve emptied them into the truck, including behind them on the road. You then have to get out of your car to move them to get past.
Work meetings period.Quote:

It's just an excuse not to do real work.
So many of the decisions or whatever could have been reached with conversations involving about a quarter of the number of people involved in a meeting or by sending a couple of emails.
The change in actress playing Jennifer Parker in Back to The Future films.
Forgetting what the great pet peeve you were about to post about was.

Men who absolutely douse themselves in after shave. Met a guy first thing this morning and it was like he had covered himself in toilet cleaner.
Is there not a saying that fragrances 'should be discovered and not announced'? I can understand it when you see young lads about 16 smelling like an explosion at the Lacoste factory but by your 40s you surely know less is more and that scents smell stronger to others than they do to yourself.

Taking the day off after the Super Bowl and getting woken up early. Every bloody year!
Last year there was a knock at the door at 7.30 from workmen saying they’d be digging up the pavement in front of our driveway at 8am so could we shift the cars which I did. Got back in bed and started drifting off when a delivery came to the door. Drifted off again for the digging to start.
This year, the people across the road are getting work done today so there’s electric saws, drills and hammers being used outside their house. This started at 7.45. They also have one of those obnoxious sensors at their front door which makes a very loud noise whenever anyway goes in/out their front door so it is going off every couple of minutes or so as workmen go in and out.
The new Twitter. It was fine as it was, now it's just loads of tweets from accounts I don't follow with a seemingly endless right-wing/ conspiracy theory/ transphobic / anti-SNP tweets.
I know these things are meant to be based on an algorithm that serves up things it thinks you'll like but I don't want to see any of that pish, it genuinely feels like every time I open up Twitter there's an attempt at converting my thinking to align with those views. It's horrible.
That and every other video that comes up on Facebook is from Jordan f***ing Peterson.
Aye it's annoying. They're showing you what they think you want to see. It's called "for you" you can see the heading at the top of the page. Just remember to click on "following" and you'll get your content.Quote:
