    Over priced pish.

    Got a 25 quid voucher off SKY for a Game of Thrones promo thing. Bought 1 pizza and 1 side and it still cost me 8 quid over and above the voucher.

    The wedges and chicken strips etc they use are literally out the Tesco freezer aisle.

    Had a walk out earlier to collect my train ticket for work tomorrow. On the way back decided to top up my Magners supply by buying 3 bottles for £4.17. Paid with a £20 and collected my change. Got home and checked my pocket and I had 83p. So somewhere between the Co-op and my house I have lost £15.

    Still * it. I hope whoever picks it up treats themselves or their family. You win some you lose some.

    I've got a Deliveroo voucher that says "£5 off your next order when you pay with Visa". I don't usually spend much more than a fiver on take away food. If I spend £4 do they give me a quid back?

    * that post on Facebook whilst away on holiday. Can't be that good a holiday if you've got nothing better to do than have your face glued to a mobile phone screen.

    Nothing trivial about this - Probate fees, some solicitors really are utter robbing *.

    The whole job application process.

    Doing a CV, getting references, writing a cover letter, sending the CV and cover letter to potential future employer, waiting for a phone call from potential future employer, receiving a phone call for an interview, the interview itself.

    All of it can get to *.

    Pettiness, in life but especially in work.

    I know myself if you're having a row or whatever its so easy to give in and be petty about something but I make genuine efforts to resist it.

    Doing the same * at the minute and I can confirm it is * torture. I have long been convinced that human beings are gradually making life more and more complicated for themselves. All I want is a job, not a specific kind of job, just one that pays the bills. I have just looked at a listing and I honestly cannot tell you what the job is! I don't want a bespoke opportunity or any of that *. I want something that I will moan about at the weekend but be genuinely glad it keeps a roof on my head.
    Stop complicating everything, ye *! My head is fried enough!

    Aye I'm done with all that *.

    Going to get a trade, sick of all the office bullshit. Don't get me wrong ill still need to apply and that but it will be a different ball game from going for sales and admin roles.

    You can’t get away from the *!
    He’s even got his mum in stuff as well by the sounds of it!
