Customers. 

 

I work for a bank. I regularly send paperwork to customers (corporate customers at that) with grey sections marked "Bank Use Only". 

 

There's a reason that's for Bank Use Only. It's not where you randomly write a nice note to said bank, or scribble reminders or phone numbers. 

 

 

Do you reject it and send them a new form to complete delaying whatever they were wanting to do out of spite?

 

Only if it actually will cause an issue down the track with another team (i.e. a low-level by-the-numbers loading team or similar). 

Otherwise I grimace and carry on.

Would the rest of the class care to tell Billy what his first mistake was here?

I mean... stuff isn't really any better :(

Booking a rental car in Aus, via booking.com ....in the fine print ...

Credit Card Charges
If this applies to you, the cost is A$196.00 including tax per rental.

Of course we are paying by credit card, rental companies practically demand payment by credit card.

I concur. These are usually digital facsimiles of paper forms, which customers then print and write all over and sign and return. Waste of resources, if you ask me. Just digitally sign and return. No need to print. 

Going to the movies, picking seats away from other people, you're waiting for the movie to start (John Wick 4) then suddenly an older couple sit right beside you despite plenty of other seats in the cinema. They then proceed to talk during the movie loudly and flinch with "ohhh" every time somebody was killed. Only get the message after being told to shut up 3 times (I was very close to getting somebody to kick them out). Also smelled badly of too much cheap perfume.

Way to ruin a movie experience.

We gave up going to a theatre to watch movies for this reason and covid. So much better at home... comfy seats, no distractions, endless beverages, comfort stops, no hassles with the chair.

Dammit you beat me 😀

Go to the movie theatre about once a year now. It's quite a novelty. Often spoiled by chatty fools with crinkly chip packets.

IME being in a home theatre doesn’t rule out people talking or too much cheap perfume. 😁

Companies/organisations that don't know their own name. For example, the information on isite.co.nz alternates between "isite" and "i-SITE" depending on where you look.
