If they waited until Christmas Eve to advertise these things, they wouldn't sell so much.
I'm always late, it's one of my many endearing features.

Alt: I don't understand why omnivores get upset about vegetarian food.
(, Thu 24 Jul 2014, 11:21, Reply)
Because they go on about it, and require more work because of their special taste.
Rarely do you get veggies who cook omnivores meat as well as their own meal.

Vegans are fucking worse though, filling my facebook feed with utter bullshit to try and convince me to quit eating real food.

Do you remember the Old Spice website that has fake links to ridiculous products that then chastises you for wanting them? Well I posted the Black Leather Bedsheets on on Facebook. I got an essay from a vegan about the sanctity of a cows life. It was a fucking joke you self righteous prick.

I do find it funny when people call me up about Google+
"How do you do this?"
"You. Are. Already. On. Google. It's actually less work to Google the answer than it is to call me. What are you thinking? Why do you have no ability to think for yourself? Oh look, two clicks is all it took. Two clicks. I hope you feel this has been a valid use of both of our time."

I probably infuriate people by never accepting meeting invitations.
Tip: if you use outlook/google to schedule a meeting that could be organised by wandering up to my desk and saying 'do you have a couple of minutes?' then you're a prick.

Oh yeah, that's shit too.
I used to have someone who used to send meeting requests entitled 'STATUS UPDATE' about 10 minutes before hometime for first thing the next morning.

All that did was ensure I was in a foul mood before I'd even got to work.

Christmas can fuck right off for another four months.
Although, working in a supermarket, I suspect I'll be seeing it in about six weeks.
I was brought up to be one of those stupid, dull idiots that will get to somewhere an hour early, rather than be ten minutes late.

Alt: do you mean 'carrots'?
(, Thu 24 Jul 2014, 11:47, Reply)
I'm punctual or early. I feel it's tremendously rude to keep people waiting around for you.
The times I am late, I'm pathetically apologetic about it and get quite annoyed when other people don't seem to have a problem holding me up.

That said, I don't see a problem cancelling a couple of hours beforehand if it's a bunch of people I'm meeting and I've got settled at home. Horses for courses, I guess.
(, Thu 24 Jul 2014, 11:52, Reply)
i don't really care if people are late, unless it's for a plane or something, obv
i always have a book on me, and it's a good excuse to get a bit of peace and quiet. but i always lol at shit excuses for turning up to a party empty-handed. yes there WERE PLENTY OF SHOPS on your way. no, a tramp DID NOT MUG YOU FOR THE BOTTLE. no, you did NOT TRAGICALLY DROP IT AND SMASH IT AT THE END OF THE STREET. you just turned up for a free nosh. admit it. that's fine. excuses are not.

i also hate last minute cancellations with a passion, unless there is a good reason. nothing worse than booking a table/area or buying food/drinks and then people can't be arsed to turn up. if they don't want to come, that's cool, just say so in the first place. but don't let people make arrangements and then drop out with a lame excuse. my friend catherine ALWAYS does this. she starts 2 days beforehand by texting with a "headache". grrr.

most contracts of employment will say that your working hours are X-Y "and such hours as the company requires you to work"
you have targets and deadlines. if you miss them, you are negligent and you get fired. that means working loooooooooooooooooooong hours sometimes, boy.
