Things that tick you off!

Re: Things that tick you off!

Yesterday I called into the BP servo on the Hume Highway at Lansvale (city bound). It isn't an overly large servo however they have a diesel bay off to the side with a rather large canopy over it which is obviously dedicated for 18 wheelers. Only problem is they have to drive front in but reverse out blindly onto the 3 lane highway to continue their journey. The site isn't big enough to drive throught the forecourt like you would in a car.
Anyway there was an 18 wheeler tautliner about to reverse out of the entry when I was driving out of the exit. I thought this guy could do with a hand so I got out to guide him back out onto the road. Next thing I know I am being abused by a coconut P plater because I am holding him up from also exiting the servo. I probably cost the coconut 40 seconds of his time. Try to do a good deed and cop it from the other end :evil:

These damn new age parents who will not keep their kids in check and let them do what they want. Now apparently after a camping trip i am a bully of small children cause i lost my temper and told the precious little s##t kid where to go, and how dare i disipline someone elses kid. and as i am not a parent i could not possibly understand the damage i have done blah blah

Fine no problem with that then get off your lazy ass and take care of your own kids

No one on this forum; just an event that happened a year ago that a mother happened to bring up with my wife last week if you were that upset why didn't you mention something at the time.
Rant over

Re: Things that tick you off!

when a certain someone drives 15km to work on tar with 4 roundabouts and some nice 90deg corners and i get a phone call saying the 2 blue switches are on and the car makes funny noices when i turn a corner, and yes we all know what those switches do, :evil: cheers samo

Aghhhhhhhhhhh.......... :roll:

Similar story, mine called when i was interstate and asked how to get the little stick out of L.. (auto) when i asked her why she was playing around with it, she said she just wanted to see what happened.. i told her that if it didnt just pop back in then obviously she has broken something inside the gearbox and to limp it back up the driveway into the garage and use her own car... there was a slab in the fridge when i got home!

Re: Things that tick you off!

Bosses who invite questions from the masses and then get annoyed when you ask a question that they cannot answer. (I'm pretty good at finding those sorts of questions). And then, they get someone else to chastise you for asking the question because they are too gutless to confront you themselves.

So much for an "open forum."

What are they going to do with me - send me bush?

Yup, I've learnt that too. An MD feedback session is for you to tell the MD how good they're doing not to tell them what they should be doing better.

HI ALL On that subject people who ask your opinion on some matter, knowing full well they are going to do it there way anyway, only asking your opinion in case there missed the bleeding obvious.TINKERA.

Re: Things that tick you off!

What Ticks me off today is, having paid an excess for the back bumper the missus stuffed, she then smashes the LHS mirror. Then a week later we get the third flat we've had in 6 months, and the nail happens to have gone through the main tread, then bend into the sidewall from the inside - 2nd BRAND NEW M/T ATZ in 3 months. With that all that money, I could've had an airlocker :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

When does it stop???

Ouch... and to think I hated the sound of reversing into my wheelie bin on collection day... a damaged mudflap, some recyclables to pick up and a dented ego. A 4K bike would be a sinking feeling like no other :shock:
