Some people should not manage other people. They should go into senior roles without people-management responsibilities

 

 

 

 

Fixed.





Did Eric Clapton really think she looked wonderful...or was it after the 15th outfit she tried on and he just wanted to get to the party and get a drink?

This really annoyed me a lot. $15 online "convenience fee" for making an IRD online payment. Makes me want to go to an office with my payment in 10c coins and dumping it in their office for my "convenience" !

Could be worse. You could be charged a "knowledge" fee by the ignorant and an "innovation" fee by the luddites on every single government transaction.

Just lately I am being consistently annoyed by companies for whom "Getting it right first time" appears to be an achievement more complex and beyond their understanding than proving Fermat's Last Theorem would be.

 

 

 

I waste so much time chasing companies trying to undo their mess ups, get answers to simple questions and so on it is becoming ridiculous.

Tape an ice pick on the windscreen with the accompanying note: Dear A$$hole, If I was as selfish and anti-social as you, I might have rammed this pick into your expensive tyre right where the tyre cannot be repaired. That is what I feel like doing when wonkers like you take my mobility parking place. Maybe the next time my anger will overcome my restraint and you will find yourself with one or four flats. You have been warned.

I like your thinking but wouldn't do this as the disabled must remain humble and be grateful for what ever we get.

Seeing another moron using the new $multi-million Cycleway as a car park as usual!

 

(Hansons Lane - Christchurch)

 

Parking Wardens finish early on Sunday - not that they would come anyway!
