I've just taken on a new management role at a large organisation.
The previous incumbent had taken the role on temporarily and whilst he is a pleasant individual, his quality of work and attention to detail was sadly lacking as evidenced by all of the mistakes I'm discovering.
He keeps giving me evils so I've tried to appease him by giving him added responsibilities with the the old 'it'll be great experience and exposure' bollocks but he still mopes around like a five year old who's had his favourite toy taken away.
I wouldn't mind but he spends most of his working day looking at images of trains and the South Eastern timetable on his computer screen.
Mamma Mia the eventim produced ‘immersive experience’ is over £150 a ticket and then they apply a £25 booking fee per ticket and then £1.50 charge for allowing you the only option available which is to print tickets at home.
Best by/Sell by dates that you can hardly read. Beer bottles and paste jars being particular culprits...
Used to remove the sell by dates off the bags of crisps with nail varnish remover and sell em way over their dates in me shop up next to Grove Park BR station
....store em up out the back till they'd expired and then put em out to sell. Was hoping to kill a few customers with food poisoning by crisp, but turns out the sell by / use by dates mean sweet Fanny Adams when it comes to artificially flavoured fried potato snacks

So I've been on temporary promotion for 3 months after my boss left. This week a new permanent boss has come in and I've returned to my previous role in the team.
She's already made it clear to me that she expects me to carry on doing everything I have been doing for the last 3 months (for 45% less pay) while she "oversees everything, leads the team and worries about the people management side of things". Because "it's great experience and exposure" for me!
I.e. you wanna do nothing all day while I do all the work and you take all the credit for it. Leave me to be doing 11 hour days all week while you knock off at 4.
ARGHGGGHG FUXJ
And I'm pissed because I wanted to be able to take back some of my extra hours worked today to get to the oval and see the trophy presentation. But I couldn't because she expects me to do two jobs and she is fucking useless.
Crys.
Do what your contract says.
Yep, throw the bone idle piss taker right under the bus.
No standard design for TV/DVD/etc remote controls - general layout for many is similar but critical stuff like channel up/down and volume up/down is at the same height on the remote but can be on either side - which is infuriating at least 50% of the time. Same goes for power on/off and mute buttons - at the top but opposite corners.
Companies that book interviews in the middle of the afternoon.
Should either be first thing, lunchtime or after 4.30. Hard to keep it under the radar when you turn up to the office in a suit for the first time in weeks and try to slip out unnoticed at 3.

Turn up in the usual gear but change into the suit later?

I bet you can't get the lids off either
'we might gonna need....'
And just generally that silly "road man" street talk accent that is common place amongst today's yoof over past decade.
Future London accent will sound like they've been winded whilst inhaling helium.
Grating. I blame uber mook Tim Westwood for ushering in such silliness.
