End of the year rallye is about to start ...

That Vero changed the address on my car insurance to some random address south of Auckland a year ago and cannot tell me how it happened. 

Spam robocalls from lostpetfinders.co.nz that leave long synthesized voice messages describing the dog that used to live 100 metres away.

Took me nearly an hour to drive from Mt Maunganui to Otumoetai yesterday.... thought I'd allowed plenty of time but apparently not. 

Could have driven to vegas in the same time.

Sounds about right. We have an office on Elizabeth St and one in Whakatane. My boss lives in Papamoa East and says that both take about the same time to get to.

kingdragonfly: Seriously who describes anything as "uber smart"?

Apart from certifiable morons? Our overlords the Übermensch, Sheldon, and people describing for-profit ridesharing scams using Fortwos and Forfours.

Using German prepositions in the English language in a totally wrong context like "Übermensch." It's a philosophic term of F. Nietzsche even hard to accept by the average Fritz and for sure not a job description. :-) 

kingdragonfly: Job ads that use language like this:

"Professional, uber smart and empowering leadership"

It sounds like something Donald Trump would write. Seriously who describes anything as "uber smart"

I get annoyed when potential employers require you to answer questions such as "What makes you the best person for the job?", without being able to evaluate your competition. Ridiculous question!

Suppliers who take payment either $0.01+/- of what they have invoiced.

Someone who's uber dumb?

Non fillable PDF forms.

kingdragonfly: I like the spanish "hasta mañana" reply

When asked how long something will take, it literally means "until tomorrow"

If it's just a farewell, it literally means "see you tomorrow"

Usually tomorrow never comes. Bad news if you want an urgent repair.
