Things that piss you off!

There was an all staff email the other day from our communications team on reflexive pronouns (bear with me) in which something was described as being very pedantic.

I had a tingling in the gentleman's region with the joy I got from thinking about this joyous expression.

Still annoys me that someone was paid to write that.

In before someone says they only have themselves to blame or if you want a job doing properly you have to do it yourself.

The in phrase on government I.T. projects of the moment.

"The art of the possible"

In one meeting lasting 1 hour the phrase was used 11 times. What a load of bollocks. Should be the art if wasting even more money.

When the snooker commentators refer to a really good tactical battle as "Not the most exciting" just because there are no big breaks.

The same applies when the players are playing badly. It can be edge of the seat stuff, but apparently fast play and big breaks are all that matters.

Tossers!

Haha! Spot the salaried guy!

Invoice day is the second most incredible day of the month (right behind the day the money lands)

Just went to order a mini iPad for a xmas present. The site says 2 weeks for dispatch with 3 - 7 business days for free delivery or 1 - 3 days delivery for £8.
So if I order it today you'd think that it would here in no more than 17 days. Stated delivery date 27/12/12 how the fuck did they work that out???

I may have posted this before, but as it happened again today, it bears repeating.

Only half the tills are open in the supermarket, they rustle up a few extra staff and open another couple of tills.

Someone who hasn't been in a queue for 20 minutes will inevitably waltz up to the new till and start unloading their trolley, totally jumping in front of the poor saps who've been waiting.

Which supermarket?
At my local Sainsbury the staff approach the waiting customers to advise them of the tills opening so nobody can jump the queue.
