Was it a particularly annoying van? Perhaps a Citroen?

My grandma had a greenhouse in the garden.

Some youts threw rocks at it and smashed a few panels.

Jokes on them because she didn't want it anyway and let me destroy it.

en-mass smashing glass is -extremely- satisfying.

So this plumber has come to do a job.

He's probably been on the phone more than on the actual job.

I'm not annoyed at him, I'm annoyed for him, he could be so much more efficient and make more money.

Usually they work by the hour. So more he chatters more he charges you.

Everyone is going to get there eventually and they're rolling in it.

It's a relatively simple and relatively cheap thing to do. For a company like Valve it shows horrendous complacency, so I stand by what I said.
I think you'll find they're too busy trying to win VR. If I was them I'd also be not wasting my time on "slightly more pixels in a UI" when said UI is basically just a launcher for other peoples shit.

That’s my main problem when I’m out working, the phone ringing all the time. Unless I can see it’s a real urgent call I will let the voicemail pick it up and then call back when I can. Otherwise, as you say the job just drags on and on because you’re having to constantly answer the phone

I think this guy answered his phone like 4 times and every time it was his boss organising new jobs for him, but in like 2 weeks in advanced.

Seemed really weird and inefficient tbh.

Scumbag CCTV camera company I bought two cameras from, with a promise of free cloud storage for life, emailed everyone who has them to say that the free for life offer was ending with 14 days notice. Obviously the free for life offer meant "for the life of our offer" or something. They're now being flooded with shitty reviews, which is good. One of the two I own was purchased from Amazon so they're dealing with it, but if that fails I'll try my credit card company too.

Y-cam won't even let you configure the camera to store footage on your own cloud, which I could do very easily. Obviously they're just in it for the money now, so I think I'll be getting rid and buying some Nest cams or similar.

It's just home stuff really, burglar alarms and insurance are all well and good but moving footage makes it easier to catch the scrotes.

Just got a full refund from Amazon for one of them, I can't remember who I bought the other one from so I'll have to do some credit card digging.

Bullshit overly complicated SQL tables and lazy/untidy SQL coding.

Modern BBC comedy. Someone, somewhere gives some serious head if Michael Macintyre and that awful Mrs Browns Boys are still on the TV.

Click and collect. Never done it before - DPD apparently dropped off a parcel at a local shop. Only apparently though - it's not fucking there.

Been on hold for 26 minutes. :eek:

Having a rather aggressive mole at the counter half way through a fish, chips and a battered sausage tea.

HE WAS POKING OUT MY ARSE, @Moriath OUT OF MY ACTUAL ARSE.

Or trying to, I don't actually walk around with cable hanging, I'm not French.

Never heard the euphamism mole at the counter before. Turtle showing his head yes. But never a mole. I dont understand why that would be a euphemism cause moles dont go to counters. But turtles do stick their heads out of shells.

Tho why you couldnt have said i was eating my tea and fuck me if i didnt suddenly need a shit.

The joke used to be, when the Chinese lady asks you if you want a battered sausage, you answer, only if you want your fanny slapped.

Probably not PC any more though.

Usually have a spam fritter (slice of spam in batter) but fancied a change.
