    My daughter got hold of my work phone earlier to take a photo of her toys. Just picked it up and she's somehow managed to reset the bloody thing and wipe everything off.

    Tried restoring it to the last back up from a couple of days ago but it won't fucking work.

    FFS, came home early because both her and my wife are ill, intending to catch up with work when they went to bed. Now I can't get onto the work network on my laptop so can't access the fucking documents I need to.

    Either that or the wife found your porn stash and bribed your daughter to delete it all

    football commentators !!

    just heard one spouting off that Salah for Liverpool has scored more goals so far this season than any other Liverpool has done in an entire campaign since Suaraz did it................. in the 2013/14 season. That's only 4 years ago ffs !! hardly ages ago & I reckon I've got tinned fruit older than that.

    Thanksgiving. What are you thanking and who are you giving it to? American pumped up turkey types r

    Being thankful for what and who you have in your life. Time for family to be together. A very meaningful day for most Americans. One of the least commercialized holidays thankfully. A bad day for turkeys. Don't understand why it would annoy you.

    Aced a job interview today in Dartford yet annoyed with the Feedback that I've just been given

    Apparently I'm "the outstanding Candidate" from the interview yet because its an IT type role, they're worried about my experience dealing with IT Hardware (Software I'm excellent with) yet know I have the knowledge because I built my own PC from scratch.

    Because the other Candidates werent brilliant they now want the Agency involved to locate some more people for them to Interview so they've got someone to compare with me at the second interview stage... Should be pleased that it sounds as though I'll get to the second interview stage but does also feel as though they'll simply settle with me if they cant find someone better

    As it is I've now got to play the waiting game to find out if my long term future can be secured!!

    So further from the above role in Dartford... I know I've got another job offer so not too fussed but still pissed

    Had still been waiting on the Second Interview due to delays with the Recruitment Process and was forced to call last Friday to warn that another job offer was coming this week and that if they wanted me in for a second interview that they'd need to move themselves (got the usual response saying we definitely want you in for a second interview)

    Wednesday came and got the job offer which I accepted, yet was prepared to retract my offer if anything came from Dartford... Regardless though, gave them another call and warned that the job offer had arrived and once again got the same line of: We definitely want to second interview you

    Still hadnt heard anything yesterday and got an email last thing saying that the job had been filled and that they wanted to thank me for my interest in the role... Didnt bother to reply but proper pissed as they basically kept me hanging around when they clearly never meant to second interview me in the first place - Ultimately they could have cost me this job I did get, had I turned round to them saying I wanted a few days to consider

    Bastards!! - Hope the bloke they employed is bloody rubbish!!
    I worked as a recruiter for 8 years and am still loosely involved in the industry and stories like this always get to me.

    The recruitment industry as a whole lacks empathy, transparency and trust.

    It's the same people that treat people like this who believe that machine learning / Artificial Intelligence can't replace the recruitment process because it lacks the emotional intelligence to deal with humans. Pretty ironic really.
    I've worked in the Recruitment Industry for seven years prior to getting out so know how Recruiters can be myself - to be honest I'm too annoyed with the Recruiter that I dealt with as he did seem a genuine nice bloke who had empathy

    If the Company I interviewed at didnt want me I dont know what the Recruiter would have gained by stringing me along so my anger is definitely aimed at the Company hiring rather than the Recruitment Agency in this sense.

    Unless for once instead of being highly suspect I'm being a bit naive

    Christmas decorations in the office, specifically the people who get offended when I decline the offer on tinsel on my monitor and a big bauble on my phone.

    It’s only the 1st, I’ve got to deal with this shite until new year.

    When Ryanair send you an e-mail saying it's time to check in, so you go through the procedure then at the end it tells you that actually it isn't time to check in until 19.20 this evening...

    When you do finally get to check in you get allocated separate seats, but if you pay an extra £6 you can sit together - there's a spare seat next to mine. I ask if they cannot just seat us together - no, that is not company policy. So they deliberately seat you apart to get an extra few quid out of you.

    No wonder people have such a low opinion of that company.

    As the missus pointed out, we would happily have paid an extra £3 each for the seats in the first place, then they could have moved us together "free" and we would be saying "Don't know what people's problem is with Ryanair, they were most helpful when we wanted to move seats, they could have charged us but didn't".

    Absolutely clueless on the psychology of customer service.

    Hopefully the seat will be empty anyway and she'll just move over after take off. If not, I am sure she'll be happy to be away from my moaning for a couple of hours...
    We managed to get sat together anyway. Up yours O'Reilly... :lol:

    The fact that programmes like Shit Factor, Britain Lacks Talent and I'm Never Going to be a Celibrity, Please Recognise Me are front page news in the papers!

    Pubs that have footie on the tv but have the sound down and play a constant stream of shit music instead.

    Better than listening to Hoddle.
    But not better than also having to listen to the coked - up child - men at the bar.
    You said constant stream of shit music though.
    Very true. Inconsistent, that's me.

    Wireless headphones.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm sure they are quite useful and stop any hassle with wires getting tangled etc, but it really does look stupid. A white headphone just dangling out of the ear connected to nothing.

    Sure that will offend some people on here who use them so apologies, but just can't help thinking how ridiculous they look.

    Edit. By the way I'm not talking about the over the head ones. They look fine. It's primarily the white Apple ones that look absurd.

    I think the big over the head ones ( as worn by footballers disembarking the team coach ) look pretty daft too.

    with the Apple ones I just know for a fact that I'd lose one of the two almost immediately and be livid.
