Others have tried, they gave it a shot
I’m back now bellwhackers, back in the spot
No messing about, no making a meal
You’re playing with Swing now and I’m the real deal
.
Let’s have your rants, let all others smirk
No rants about messages, preferences, work
Don’t go moaning that people don’t reply
You’ll get a 'denied' and a poke in the eye
.
It’s no democracy, my decision is it
If you don’t like it then that’s just tough shit
I don’t want any whinging, kicking up a stink
Or you’ll get a beating from my minder, Pink
.
Commenced ranting folks |

Customer experience is very important today. Skimp on that and you may end up with no customers

Why do old people drive in the middle of roads ?
Why do old people go in the bank at lunch time ?
Why do old people hold up all the other customers at the till & hold a full on conversation about the weather ?
Why do old people think it’s their right to Stand in the middle of a supermarket isle and don’t give a dam about others ?
Why do old people think it’s ok to walk through a door & refuse to hold it open for others ?
Bless them all |

People constantly moaning about Christmas starting too early, being too commercialised, being too much hard work.
I plan early and enjoy December. I’m bewildered by others running around like headless chickens spoiling their own Christmas
I do understand it is a difficult time of year for many people and my comment is not there to dismiss that |

I'm in a jolly good mood today..
So I'm using a week old rant!!
When Amazon give you a delivery date.
5 days before that date you get a notification the item has been delivered & signed for by the resident - Me.
Only person home was my 15yro & he didn't sign for anything.
10 days later, you're still arguing with Amazon that a very expensive Christmas gift is not in your possession. |

I do think the shops put Christmas stuff out too early but I’m an adult and can choose not to look or buy and my day is not affected.

In this week's developer wars:
The story so far
Delayed over 3 months, management incompetence and a kitchen that hadn't been built (let's not mention the tiling).
This week ... not much to report, and this is the subject of my rant.
You'd think, after all the hassle so far they'd want to keep us informed ... but oh no ... a call to the sales office results in a recorded message.
My last communication, was an excited sales rep telling me the good news is there will be trades in over the 2 week Christmas period.
Am I meant to be impressed???
After all the fuck ups, they fucking well should be in to catch up and fix the royally shitty mess of their own making!!!
But, we're in the dark as to where things are as I haven't been lucky enough to identify that 5 minute window when I can fucking talk to someone!!!
Tomorrow, maybe I will get to talk to them tomorrow ... I live in hope!!
Developer wars ... a monkey production |

Seems to be a growing risk especially around Christmas. They don't want to stop and take it next door as they have so many things to deliver.

I’m usually very neighbourly indeed. However when you’ve specifically taken the day off work to be home for your parcel (which was a nightmare to arrange in the first place) to only have people try and deliver other people’s stuff and not your own (and no sign of your own parcel).... it’s somewhat irritating.  |

Thank you
The original listing showed it as a Prime item, next day delivery.
Once I paid, it popped up, expected delivery 14-24 Dec.. Urmmmmm
8th Dec it was supposedly delivered.
They told me to check with neighbours, even though it says I signed for it.
I have, I trust my neighbours, no one has it.
I'm now in limbo over my 16yros Christmas present.. Aaaargh! |

Hey I am old!
I drive in the middle of the road because years of experience has shown me young people step off pavements without looking.
I go to the bank at lunch time, because that is when I am sober.
I hold conversations with people in boring jobs because it makes them smile.
It us my right to stand wherever I fucking well want to. Go around!
I am not a doorman, if I hold it, it is an act of generosity, so say thank you! It of course also requires me to stand still which has previously been objected to.
Forgive the young, they haven't learned how to function yet  |

I do not like eleventy billion other dog walkers and half a dozen horse riders getting in my way and winding my dogs up. Especially the ones that let their twatty off lead dogs run up to my on lead reactive dog. The school holidays will be even worse. Bah humbug. |

Surely 'play' is worse?
I'm sure if you received messages saying 'how about spending a boring half hour with me and having some shit sex' that wouldn't go down well either.
Nothing wrong with some positivity and expecting things to go well.

Ok so I arrived to take my daughter for her riding lesson which isn’t normally on this day or time. Therefore I’ve no clue how busy it is etc. When I arrived there was me myself and I in the makeshift car park, no lines for spaces etc. As it was so empty I parked differently than I would normally in the owner of the riding school’s space. I’d parked horizontally instead of vertically which is how the owner parks, this is the equivalent of two spaces. I was mid conversation on my phone sat in my car when this face appears at the window, ‘are you going because you’re taking up three spaces?’. I promptly parked in the normal way freeing up a space, not two spaces, she was exaggerating. When I’d finished on my phone I wound down my window, ‘I do apologise, the car park was empty when I arrived and I don’t normally come on a Thursday’. I accept that the way I’d parked was inconvenient so I moved and apologised quite rightly so. My rant is the woman continued to have a go at me despite me reiterating the above. I wound my window up so she then decided to tell anyone that drove up while pointing at me and saying how ignorant I was. I apologised and moved for goodness sake I didn’t argue or refuse to move. I didn’t deserve the tirade of abuse that followed, it’s Christmas for goodness sake, peace on earth and all that jazz  |

"This might appear a trifle petty but I set off early as the traffic is ridiculous but there wasn’t any traffic . Consequently I arrived 30 minutes early!!! Christmas is less than a week away, like I have 30 minutes to waste
It's weirdly quiet... "
I’d like some peace and quiet  |

Given the journey I had from work, I can't really go approving this one as you did have a hot chocolate while I was working

Really winds my up when people go on. Just isn't necessary and is a waste of time and energy.
I hope each of Santa's reindeer shits down her chimney and Santa wipes his tinky winky on her curtains

The reservations weren’t working on the train coming back today. Someone, of course, was sitting in my seat. I usually push people out of my reserved seat, but since they were a couple and claimed that someone else was sitting in their seats, I spotted a vacant seat and I let them have it. They caught in a good mood today, even though they never said sorry or thanks.
The upside was a lovely gentleman sat beside me and we had a really nice chat for an hour.  |

Swings and roundabouts but it's not really a rant

So there I was at work carrying a fuckton of plates, a "helpful" guest decided to balance a bowl tentatively on the pile, ignoring me when I said "it's ok I'll come back for that"
As I push the kitchen door with my foot, the body wobble sends the bowl crashing to the ground and into lots of noisy pieces.
The large group of diners the helpful one was with found this highly entertaining, so much so they cheered and laughed.
I will never understand why people cheer when a glass, bowl, plate etc gets broken.
Why would you not only celebrate but taunt the person by cheering publicly at their accident/embarrassment/personal financial cost if they have to replace it?
Cunts.

"People using a different website to get round my filters on here
Okay they get a much quicker "No thanks" message but I'm seriously considering auto block on both sites because have some respect for my preferences "
That's very sneaky and just not cricket

Work Christmas Parties
Or “Enforced Fun With The People That Wind You Up And You Them”
Someone always over-indulges in the booze and makes a tit of themselves. Usually in front of a boss.
Someone inevitably ends up crying (misplaced office romance gone tragically wrong)
2 or more Alpha Males end up in fisticuffs.
Someone pukes in the office pot plant.
Someone always brings Santa hats to “get everyone in the mood”
Bah Humbug

In the distant past at previous companies, no.
Nowadays, it’s a lot more civilised and the team are all good ‘uns. The youngsters go off “clubbing” after the meal. Us old ‘uns prefer to go home. Then see how many make it in the next day
