I hate it when I have queued for ages at the checkout and the cashier asks the person in front to put on the 'register closed' sign.

Yeah I know sigh

Same kind of situation as ATMs and bank tellers conversing

Was at Big W last week, waiting behind someone until a self-checkout was available, then realised there were 2 checkout operators nearby standing with nothing to do .. no one else noticed doh

I wont use them, because the moment we take to them, they will not only put people out of work, but also, the young lads that are employed from after school to take out our groceries to the car,their jobs will go... and I betcha that soonish, they will charge us for using them, just like ATM's...

Call me suspicious.... Yes. I am ...uh oh

i dont care what the experts say,i reckon everytime you use any money machine be it atm or supermarket checkout machine,your numbers are trying to be taken or viewed by some unscrupulous organization and sooner or later theyll strike it lucky and the banks wont be able to stop em.the experts are only one step ahead of the crooks,not two steps,sooner or later bingo

Newlife08: Don't you hate it when - you jump in the shower, finished, reach for the towels and remember you threw them in the wash this morning

You can't do a nudie run to the linen cupboard as your 20 yo son is home from work and if you bump into him he is liely to be scarred for life

So you have to do the best with the hand towel


Nope never happened here, I have extra everything, except bath mats and bath robe!
And yes I have had to go outside at 4.30am to retrieve them. No chance in hell of running into the kid at that time off day!
grin rolling on the floor laughing cheers

I hate it when you are the first person at work after the weekend, make a much-needed cuppa, pour in the milk and get chunky floaties; only to find there is no more milk until the receptionist arrives.

Then to top off your morning, you have come in early to get some photocopying done and some sod has jammed it and left it like that the friday before. I am so glad I don't work in schools with those issues now!

I only sleep between 4.5 and 5 hours a night, so it's always dark when I get up. I leave my trackies and hoody on the off side of the bed for a quick put on this time of year. I hate it when I pull on my hoody not seeing I've put it on backwards and end up with the hood over my face! laugh Seems to happen a lot lately. hmmm

I had an 'invisible' day today conversing


You know the one where you're in your local shopping centre and anyone with a shopping trolley, pram or whatever charges straight towards you and you have to jump out of the way confused

I just hate that....


I only use the house phone for ringing places like Telstra that leave you on hold for hours, the rest off the time the phone is unplugged, its only connected to the house for WIFI,
Telstra tried to charge me $450.00 to connect the internet? Plus line rentals and internet use up too $120.00 per month?
I had to call them to cancel the phone and internet as I was going to go with Iinet for $80 per month no line rentals?

After being such a good customer for 8 long years they decided they would match Iinets offer so I now get 500GB per month no line rentals for $80, that’s two computers going flat-out, you know what kids are like?

Since we moved in here I have had two calls on the house phone I didn’t want so I just plug it in when I want to use it? Anyone that knows me has my mobile number,
cheers grin dancing
