Stupid little things that bug you

Work related one this and only relevent to some bit when yoy recieve some equipment thats stainless steel you have the plastic film they cover it in to prevent scratches.
It really annoys the fuck out of me, never comes off properly and takes up half your day removing it and probably scatching the steel anyway as you pick at the tiny bits that dont peel off

Lol. I worked for a place that built Pizza Pizza stores over here and would have to deal with that crap all the time.
The worst is when somebody puts on handles, doors etc. without peeling back the Blue bastard first.

Chips always hanging out of the box they come in spilling into the tray that hundreds of people have touched, The workers that go around picking up trays just give them a wipe and that's it. The exact same cloth that they are after cleaning multiple tables with too. Dirty bastards.

It's not like McDonalds is cheap either, You'd get a turkey and ham dinner for near enough the price of a Big Mac meal these days. I can't understand the love for McDonalds the food is shit and you would still leave hungry after a meal.

They have these tablet things attached to tables now too for kids to play with whilst they eat food. The amount of kids and adults pressing the touch screen playing the games and eating is crazy, Turns my stomach that stuff.

You can go to a carvery and get a full plate of a roast dinner for cheaper than you can get a McDonald’s
 
No idea why this annoys me so much but the first thing I do when I’m on an early shift at work is go to put the kettle on for a brew and if there’s no water in it, I’m fucking fuming. Like literally swearing out loud even though I’m in a little room on my own. It’s about 20 steps to the kitchen. Probably takes 30 seconds there and back, including filling it.

I’ll even text the night man calling him a **** for leaving it empty sometimes, which takes me twice as long as actually filling the kettle.

This does my fucking head in. Lazy selfish bastards not re-filling it after they use it. If I use the kettle at work or at home I always fill it afterwards so it's ready for the next person to use.

I bet it's the same people who don't put paper in the photocopier when it runs out at work. Really fucking annoys me when I go to pick up my printing and it's not there. I fill up the tray and half of someone else's printing comes out which I promptly bin.

People who call Mcdonalds' "restaurants".
In restaurants you are provided with knives, forks and spoons.
Spot the difference...

I am afraid that is incorrect, a restaurant in anywhere you can buy food prepared there and has availability to sit and eat it, including fast food diners.

cutlery is not a requirement to eat many foods

Go to a Chinese restaurant and order lettuce wraps or a Thai restairant and order laab and sticky rice, you would not use cutlery for either or need it on the table

People who have jobs where they need to print little bits of paperwork out on a printer.

Those cunts need to be getting a proper man’s job.

To clarify, I believe that in American diners, plates are used (Although they don't appear to.use cutlery).
Chinese restaurants provide chopsticks with which to eat, as I believe Thai restaurants do.
A restaurant, to me, is a place where you sit down to eat and are served at your table, using the appropriate implements to transfer food from plate/dish to mouth.

whimpy was always the best burger place, shame the nearest one is in Huddersfield, need to open one in Manchester again


Also when do Thai eat with chopsticks unless it's Kuai Tiao, The norm is a folk and spoon for Thai food or your hands if it's from Isan

Weirdo :-)

Really? I pour it down the sink, fill it with hot water from the tap then call my wife a knob for putting too much water in the kettle the last time she used it.
I don't have time to sit around waiting for cold water to come to a boil.
