Hey guys,
I realised that I shouldn't let work get to me, I am wasting energy being annoyed by idiots. What winds you up at work? Any good stories about idiot customers? Did I tell you the one about the guy that shit himself? That was well lol.

Alt: What gets you upset outside of work, when I ride motorbikes I was much calmer than now, I get angry driving my car sometimes,

Altalt: what do you enjoy most about work and life?

Just had a bug raised that this rule we've created is bilateral when they wanted unilateral
The idiot had only gone and confused a RULE with an AGREEMENT. CRAZY!!!

I would have hoped it would be clear that a rule is something that applies to both parties whereas an agreement just applies to one.*
