...and furthermore,
Bars like Pitcher & Piano which seems to be where all works dos start. Would it hurt them to offer a decent beer from a hand-pulled pump? I don't want 12 different lagers super-cooled over melted glacier ice or tiny bottles of 9% belgian syrup with raspberries. I always end up drinking Guinness as the least worst option but even that has little taste once it's been super-cooled.
E-mail ping-pong. The number of times I've picked up a phone and rang someone to sort out some problem that has been bouncing around the company on e-mails for about a month...why e-mail me to say "The person you want to contact is Henry Dick in Supplier Management in Norwich" but don't bother copying them in!
The environment. Where to start? Governments that think growing plants to turn into fuel to keep their huge vehicles running at a low (monetary) cost but with no regard to the effect on world food prices. Idiots who say things like, "Well, we recycle all of our wine bottles..." when they brought them home on a plane from their gite in France. Shops that super-heat the interior while keeping the doors wide open to heat the street. Getting rid of goods trains so that the motorways are chocker with trucks spewing out diesel fumes. Why are all new homes built not obliged to have solar panels in the roof? This would create a cost effective solar-panel industry and save tons of energy. Et-bloody-cetera.
Working in a team. Why do I have to work in a team when I hate people? Why can't I have my own little office with a lock on the door? Bloody people.

Any bar not serving at least one real ale...
needs cunting in the fuck.
I'm sure when PJM is Prime Minister, this will be at the top of his agenda. Every single licenced establishment must provide proper beer, produced from a wanker-handle.

That's just town centre pubs though
But I know what you mean about Guinness often being the best option.

Student bars...
Are often the worst offenders, sick of being told the Tetleys is off and there being no alternative bitter, yet there is Fosters, Carlsberg, Coors, Grolsh, Heineken, Stella and two bastard types of Carling. Anywhere with decent ale/bitter is always full of old men in jumpers and beards, which is fine byme but my mates are strangely hesitent tio frequent these places.
As for the environment, I couldn't give a shit if wind turbines spoil your nice, middle class, rural view, they save the planet and should have been built in droves by now. Fucking NIMBY's.
