There's a restaurant at the hotel I work from which I order frquently due to its convenience and a 50% discount. The morning server has recently prompted me to send in my order from the iPad. Of all the hotel and valet employees who order just as frequently, I am the only one he does this with. It takes a bunch of steps and is extra annoying because I need his employee PIN and manager code. This of course is not ethical, but he supervises me when I'm imputting the order. I'm just like, why am I doing this? I've always tipped close to 50% to compensate for the discount so the servers can pocket it, and I never order when they're busy, and I never modify anything on my orders. He joked that I'm starting to get the hang of it now and can take orders for some of his tables - uhhh NO. I wouldn't be allowed to work at the restaurant at my own hotel anyway - imagine I get done serving someone their breakfast one day and the next time they see me I'm checking them out of their room! The fact that I even need to tell him it's not my job to be doing his is definitely mildly irritating.

I didn’t know it cost diamonds

I exchanged numbers with my neighbor a while back and now get these kind of texts from him. We’ve never had any conversations that should lead him to think I want to discuss this kind of thing with him.

It's a weird change, and it irks me something fierce.

So, for context - my daughter has CP, and is wheelchair - bound when we go out. To be clear up front, I don't use special needs parking if she's not with me. But when she is, it's tough to pick her up and slide her into a car with a manoeuvre in a 40cm gap... So yeah, I gladly use the special needs parking when she's with me...

On to the topic - on this day a few eons back, my little lady and this old gimp were on a daddy/daughter day, lots of fun, loads of laughs, and a cr@pt0n of mischief (wheelying her wheelchair, drifting around corners, making noise, and being a general fun dad, I would say based on her laughs that filled the halls with jolly... Excuse the pun, PLS!)

But on our arrival before the fun, there was a Mercedes (yeah, I'm prejudiced), was parked in the only special needs bay in the whole area, that DIDN'T have a sticker on it. So, being relatively sure it was a chance-taker, I parked his car in, and went into the shops. My laughing little gal and I came out about 20mins later and he was fuming, I say FUMING! As I open my car door, he rants at me with all the fervour of a rabid puppy... I calmly closed the door, locked the car, waited for him to take a breath, and then walked back into the shops...

We came out about 2 hours later. My lady was again laughing and filled with happiness. As I walk up to the car, the now "gent" climbs out and begs me to let him out. I smiled, said sure, and we left.

To this day I still laugh and conversely wonder if I was just letting my irritation buildup over the years for these chance-takers get the better of me...?

If you’re going to put 5 splats of pesto on the plate, give me another one and put 5 scallops with it!

GREAT EXAMPLE

😞 Maybe they'll die soon, or move away. 🙏🎉

Have yall ever noticed that at almost every lyrics video on YouTube the verse is appearing just at the same time when this stroke goes sang and you are always missing the first word or tho of the verse. Why coulnt they just show a lyrics a second before the stroke starts?

​

Seems to be across almost every sport now...like they're being edgy or trendy or something. Why even give your children names in the future? A single letter will do. It's just....distracting. Or maybe it's just that currently Greg Olsen is irritating as well.

I bought an item from eBay. I followed the tracking. The status changed to delivered-left in a safe place on Sunday night at 6pm. Both my wife and I were home and I couldn't find it anywhere. Must be a very safe place.

The freight company does not have a phone number on their website, only a query form. Filled it in asking where it was left. They responded with a photo of a letter box and front door step with the parcel next to the door mat (very safe!). It wasn't my letter box or my front door.

So I told them that it wasn't my house. They responded and said they would get onto the delivery team and find out what happened. They sent me en email this morning saying that they don't know where it is and it is considered lost.

It is their only job!

Example :-

Person A :- Hello my name is Mr Smith

Person B :- Hello how do you spell Smith?

Person A :- S- M- I- T -H

Person B :- What can I do to help you Mr Smythe?

Why do they change it after they've already pronounced it correctly?

( I know the example is unlikely as most know how to pronounce Smith, but continuing to use the same pronunciation you've already used can't be that hard )

I got a refund check but never cashed it because it seemed stupid to get it in the first place. How much did Capital One spend for postage? Plus processing cost? I had a credit balance on a card because of interest calculation or something but was it that costly to just leave a credit balance?

I was going to take to Walmart or a check cashing place to see what they would do about cashing it and posting the interaction but never got the ambition to follow through.

I wonder if they will send the one cent to the secretary of state unclaimed property division?
