Posting on a thread, turning the laptop off, coming back a few hours later to see if anyone has added anything more and finding I'm still the last one to post and the thread is down page 2

- we are of like minds and I had it paypalled within ~5mins of seeing it listed - the only one they had too !!
Though it'd be my first eBay sell and I've heard many stories of sellers being ripped off by buyer claiming things didn't arrive or arrived damaged etc etc. But defn a simple(ish) way off clawing back some money.

I recently had this guy message me and I turned him down (nicely) and he said I was a 'shallow bitch' lol when his whole conversation was about how he liked my look etc - I told him he was a hypocrite and blocked him.
When things don't go their way they retort to insults, and if they truly though I was a 'slut' or whatever why did they bother talking to me in the first place huh?

What's annoying me today is that I'm trying put some images on a site but they have a max size of 300kb and it's a nightmare trying to resize 30 odd images. 300 kb is prob crap quality anyway I may as well not bother.

Also I walked (far) to my local bank (this noon) and they were closed! I wanted to pay off my debt - very irritating.

Chronically indecisive clients.
Especially those with poor manners. No apology and thanks for making me wait while you were trying to make up your mind for an hour or two, overrunning our 20-minute meeting? Screw you.

A certain moronic branch manager.
He decided to "revolutionise" our work schedule system without warning, leaving us no chance to reschedule our appointments.
As a result, I'm doing three double shifts this week. I already did night shifts last two or three days, so today was supposed to be my day off, but nope.
He's assured us that those "super-super-minor teething problems" will be "drilled down expeditiously", which brings us to this:

Trendy management jargon.
What's the point? Seriously, what's the point? It only makes you look silly. Think about it - "Let's have an idea shower." and "Let's park that problem for the moment and utilise our focus on this task bar ." (Task bar is his term for action plan.) So ****ing ridiculous.

Peas.
Why do supermarkets, restaurants and bistros put peas in everything? Stew, rice, soup, omelette, etc. I don't like peas, I don't want them in my food. *petulant pout*

I've had a really crappy day, can you tell? Doesn't help that I miss my kids so much. I wish they could return from their summer holiday sooner than the agreed date. Sorry for being so self-pitying, whiny and ranty.

Takae, having a good rant can often help. Hope you are feeling better.

if your kids know this methinks one Mother's Day you're getting a big box filled with nothing but peas.
Or they'll ask you to read this for their bedtime storytime.

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or motor neurone disease as it's known in the UK (or Lou Gehrig's disease if you're in the US) - it's what Stephen Hawking has had for over 50 years (although he is a rare case, most suffers die much younger).

We're in the same boat but if you might like to know that SOME blinds advertise themselves as easily adaptable to different sized widths,
