Yep I got them for a slow worm, didn't know it was a slow worm at the time. I just don't like things like that, certainly wasn't going to pick it up. Happily paid the guy to do it and all.
 
There was a time when I could stay up until daft o'clock and be right as rain the next day.

Not any more - I'm cream bliddy crackered! :D
 
I find it really annoying to sit next to someone who is chewing loudly but even more annoying when they send a voice note whilst clearly eating at the same time...

...mother's eh! :o :D
 
Has anyone else got a really moody postman/woman?

An incident occurred just after lockdown where the postie, usually a pleasant chap, had a go at me for not answering the door in what he described as an acceptable time frame. I was quite taken back by the outburst, I got quite defensive and informed him I was home schooling my 5 year old, my wife was working from home and also teaching our 8 year old whilst our 2 year old was running about. It's unfortunate but we couldn't get to the door very quickly. He didn't understand my answer and in the end I told him to cheer up. Everyone was stressed at that time so I gave him the benefit of the doubt and didn't think about it.
5 months later, this afternoon, I was home alone on a work call/meeting. I heard the knock, then again...30 seconds later I excused myself and went down, I could see him at the door, presumably writing a card, I answered, apologised for being on a work call, he said nothing and angrily shoved the box in to my hands, he then walked off and said "unbelievable". I opened my mouth to say something then literally couldn't be arsed, so instead I'll rant here. My wife said to report him but what's the point, he will only probably sabotage any post we need. But honestly, what a ****.

What would OCUK do :p

I would do literally nothing unless it gets worse to the point of damage to property etc. It's not worth it.

Also, i'm surprised he hangs around for 30 seconds. Mine would have posted the card in less time.
 
Some people really don't seem to have the patience for working in roles like that lol. Thankfully my post lady is fine. (And she agreed with me that my neighbour was out of order for trying to get me to take her parcels in...When she's home!)

Maybe just throw him off by being super friendly :D
