The vent

I hate those fucking cunts from Deutsche Telekom! Yes, all of you!

Come my renewal date for DSL, I'm gonna drop them like a ton of bricks!

Fucking useless CUNTS!

I hate the sucking bugger 'My Landlord'...bloody cheater ...i pay him heavy rent ...in addition to the heavy borkerage to his ------- agent...and now he makes me pay additional charges for his ------- apartment...i want to use all those dirty words on earth to scold him @#$%!#$%%&*$@!!!@#$%^&&%$%&@#$ to quench my anger...GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGRRR

Dumbass SAP Support people!
They get paid so much money to support their SAP users and then, every little problem they have (my system interfaces with theirs), they point the finger at my system and say we must have sent them bad data. Newsflash*** we didn't freaking send anything to SAP yesterday so stop blaming my system for all your problems and start doing a little work (ie analysis) - that's what you get paid the ridiculous money for!!! Grrrrrr!! They are so f'ing lazy!

@ my dentist - Next time you send me an invoice check your books first for my down-payment. And cough up the remainder without further delay.

I hate the fucking wankers who burgled my flat in London and completely cleaned me out. I am now forced to fly out there on a last minute ticket which is costing me three times the amount I usually pay to go home plus I'm fucking skint. Bloody arschlochs!

Timmeh.

Cigarettes not for me (though I do smoke cigs, I thought it was better than starting to smoke Meth)

7000 Euro, she had had it, she has left. Simple.

If you ever go back, you can go for free (I think)

Put your brain into gear before engaging your keyboard (just a thought)

I am glad that you are still enjoying our hospitality in Europe, great here is it not???

you're not the manager of this workgroup- you're not even at the top of the hierarchy so stop keeping tabs on everyone!
who cares if they leave to go get food quickly? it doesn't affect you and they're still getting their work done!
who cares if someone messes up! they'll notice since the mistake will be checked 3 times in the process plus one more quality control so let them get it- it's not your job so why are you checking their work? you said you didn't want to do that job anymore so leave it! no need for 2 people to do the same thing.

ah stupid people!

also, when i jokingly warn people i might smell like a wet dog since i'm housebreaking a dog and we keep having flash flood and severe storm warnings (ie lots of rain) i obviously have to continually go outside. do i actually smell like a wet dog? no. (yes, i asked people if i did) so don't go on and on about how the dog is gross and stupid. the dog isn't stupid and is catching on faster than you would. It's not his fault he was abused then abandoned so is now scared and confused.

Fecking Air Berlin. First time in my life that a pilot aborts a landing just a few meters above the runway. And he later says " Oh sorry, there was another plane there". Wtf!

I am soooo sick of people bumping into me, saying nothing and walking on like nothing happened. what the fuck?

Yeah, sorry about that. I didn't spill anything, did I?

Fecking taxes! I'm paying a damn fortune there. Need a tax consultant soon I guess. Shit!

Shiiiiiite !

Fuckin women coppers !

Just got done for driving and talkin on the fone, 40 beer tokens up the swannee

Cue the ' You shouldn't drive and talk ' PC brigade.

Thats what Bluetooth headsets are for..

Prefer to pay the 40 yoyos than look like a twat wearing a Borg earpiece mate.

love the reply bluedave.

Damn cyclists. If you want to be respected, then you gotta respect the rules, which includes stopping when you see a red light. I don't care who you are back in the world, you cross on red light one more time, I'll bleed ya, real quiet. Leave ya here. Got that?

Another thing that's annoying. It's a bloody bank holiday in the UK today, Bayern steals all the holidays from everyone, how did they miss this one?

There is this fly in my room and it doesn't want to die (I've tried, trust me), and it's pissing me off! It keeps buzzing around my desk and it's sooo annoying!

And what is with all the hate topics on TT lately?! Do you hate this, do you hate that, I hate this, I hate that... lighten up people!

I've just spent a lovely long weekend with my kids in England. That's all great except on Sat they fly to Panama to live and I won't see them till Christmas, if I'm lucky. I tried to stop my ex wife taking them away and was even prepared to move back home and have them myself. The law is an arse and my ex wife a bitch. It really is tough to watch your 7 year old son walking around clutching a picture of his step brother and crying all the time. He's fucking 7 and shouldn't be put through this shit.

I think I have the early signs of whiplash and I'd like to twat the twat who gave it to me... me. I took my son for an enlightening afternoon to the Deutsches Museum. After a good three hours wobbling around looking at everything and discussing with a four year old I took him for the final hour to the children's area (which is very, very good, but... has very, very dangerous things for adults to touch). After getting boats up and down through a lock (his grandfather will be so pleased) and a few other things, we discovered the pulley systems... only he wasn't interested in them. So I said, "Look son, it's easy", stood on the little disc that the kids sit on and pulled on the rope. This was the event that happened 1.75 nanoseconds before regret reared its ugly head. The pulley system was very, very efficient. My pull lifted my feet off the ground and the disc (and my feet) swung forwards. The efficiency of the pulley system meant that my hands (and body) came downwards, pulling my feet even higher. I hit the play area floor totally horizontal and with a big thud. My son thought this was hilarious. As I lay there a good five minutes totally winded, my son suddenly saw the fun in sitting on the disc and pulling himself up. I can't move my neck without wincing. Why don't they put big signs on these things to say "No adults"?

Ahhh! Stupid stupid cow! Do your work correctly so you don’t waste my coworkers time, my time and also your own since I’m going to keep coming back to you to fix things! I cannot stand you and I’m glad we’re getting more translators to slowly take over your work because frankly, you suck at it!

sometimes I wonder how people get into certain managerial positions. The manager in charge of the importer office I look after has now managed to make the third person resign within three months. She hasn't a clue about people management, teamwork, leadership or showing respect to her fellow man/woman.

This woman should be stripped of her rank and made to wash the dishes in the staff canteen.

Some people just majorly suck and don't get what their role is supposed to be or the nice way to react/respond to things!

Fecking Lufthansa and their bloody propeller plane which can't be on time.

I hate people that want to attack me with their open umbrellas in the rain, and I also hate pedestrians and car drives who think that bike paths are there for their convenience.

Also those people (probably the same people ) who insist on "swinging" their umbrellas (the big ones, not the fold up ones) and poking everyone with the tip of it when they are walking (when not raining and poking them in the heads with it).

Rant - weekend spoiler - husband gets a copy of his credit reports to find that he's been a victim of identity thief AND this is the kicker...his ex defaulted on a 6200 pound loan from the Bank of Scotland. The reason for the default is unclear especially since it was listed as a JOINT ACCOUNT and she got this loan at least 6 months after the divorce was finalized. He has had no contact with her since before the divorce was finalized and now finds he's responsible for a loan he had not signed for. I can't wait to see the outcome of this mess.
He doesn't want to contact the police for the fraud, only wants to clear his report, clear his name and get it removed. I am furious at her. My husband is the type of guy that trusts everyone first, but I can't be that way, too jaded I guess. He's going to contact the credit agencies and hopefully, the police will be notified for the fraud and she can be hanged for this. The nerve of some people.

Okay, rant over.

Why is everything dubbed here? I am watching CSI New York right now, and it's in Spanish!

Okay, so everything is dubbed in Germany as well, and that sucks almost just as much, except I understand everything in German.

Spanish TV sucks.

But I guess the upside is that it can help me understand Spanish better.

I tried onlinetvrecorder.com yesterday. The interface is a bit cranky but it lets you record German TV shows. Maybe it works from Spain, too. wikipedia: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Onlinetvrecorder

The problem is, my internet here is a bit slow, so downloading TV shows isn't really an option. But thanks.

some people can be jerks (by jerk i mean asshole)

Stupid Canadian Geese! They’re obnoxious. As a kid they’d squawk at early hours of the morning. The past few days they hang out in the middle of the street. The geese and idiots on the freeway (know where you’re going if you’re getting on the freeway at rush-hour) have added to a crappy start of the day.

DHL sucks! incompetent lazy bastards.

Would you not just call them assholes then?

I had the pleasure of having to phone our company-internal "resolution centre" today (Me in US, home server in Hamburg unreachable, Res center presumably in India. Its evening back home so fear that no-one is working on issue)

A gentleman answered : "Your employee number?" "I am speaking to xxxxx"? "Well how are you doing today?"

Me: "******* as I am having to phone you cos I can't get any **** work done!" (stupid question).

At least he was able to determine that people were working on the problem.

So now I'm in thumb-twiddling mode with only 24 hours left here...

I have this 1 German supplier, and whenever we discuss stock issues they come back with stuff like "It will be available week 38".

Week 38? Talk sensible you tossers. When is your birthday? Week fucking 47? Fancy a quick drink Week 28?

Don't inflict your buggery pain in the arse internal system on me. Just say 2nd week in October and that will do just fucking fine.

Er... whatever you've ordered may be coming to you quicker than you think. Week 38 is next week. It was only when my German cow orkers pointed it out that I realised that practically all diaries have the week number on them. It allows morons who cannot commit to a certain day, the luxury of a whole week in which to do whatever they have said they will do.

Why are some delivery guys so stupid? Doorbell rings, I get up to answer the door, halfway there doorbell rings again. We are talking about perhaps 20 seconds. Then the guy asks: Do you know where this office is? and shows me the address. The same company name as is posted in the elevator for the first floor, we are on the second floor. I should have slammed the door in his face but it opens outwards. So I said, Try their doorbell, it's one floor further down. Oh, and only ring once.
Arsch mit Ohren.

Surely the correct response is "oh, they're in the basement...yes, that's right, through this trap door"?

Why can't people mind their own #*(*#$(# business...

ARGHHH!

Come on Carm, share the wealth, why an arrrghhh?

too many people on TT would be very upset with me if I actually told me what is pissing me off! So, I will just scream instead!

Don’t come up to me insisting I stop what I’m doing to open a new program for you to show me something. I appreciate that you want me to know whatever it is you’ve been ranting and insisting on, but at the moment I haven’t a clue what you’re talking about and it’s not my priority. I just spent the majority of the day helping with a workshop full of some of our more important members and people on the Certification Board. I’ve had a headache all day, but have had to be pleasant and with it. Since I haven’t been working on my stuff I have to get a few things done in the next 45min before I leave. I need to get this stuff done and sent out so that people can review and I can have the results on Monday. When I ask you politely if we can go through this some other time and explain I’m busy don’t go on and on telling me my stuff can wait. Fine, if you want to deal with pissed off people in Argentina, China, and Korea then it can wait, I’d rather keep them happy and also keep to the schedule/deadline since we’re getting down to the wire to get this stuff to be printed.
When our boss tells you I don’t need to know whatever it is you keep bugging me about and let me be since I need to get this done let me be! When she leaves the area don’t come up trying to re-explain and taking my mouse to open up one of the databases to show me. I asked you nicely to leave me alone and our boss has tried to nicely tell you that what I’m working on is more important than what you’re trying to do at the moment.
Oh, and I’m not some “silly kid� as I heard you just refer to me. Yes, I might be mumbling to myself in other languages, but that’s because today I’ve been translating conversations for people and now I’m trying to get through a mess of Spanish stuff—leave me alone!!! Just turn around and do your own job and leave me and my headache misery alone!

Too many profiles and not enough profile pics. This not why I signed up for supporters status EB.

Why do some people seem to know more about my life (or aspects of it) than i do?!?!!

What the heck is it with people who walk their dogs off-leash along paths in protected wilderness areas where leashes are mandatory. Don't these idiots know that they could not only be fined, but if their dog takes off and a hunter spots it chasing a rabbit or deer then he can actually shoot the damned dog? And then I come along with my two on-leash and the silly buggers don't even attempt to control their dogs. Two women with three dogs off-leash, and one of them comes charging at me and mine. What the heck am I supposed to do? Can't drop my leashes since my dogs have a very strong hunting instinct, are young and don't have a reliable recall yet. So my dogs go crazy, barking... and the idiots start yelling at me to control my dogs? What the FU@#%#$@#!!!

There... I feel better now

what is it with me and airlines?

fecking Lufthansa!!!1

supposed to be on my way to Cardiff via Birmingham but instead I am back at home cos they overbooked the fucking flight.

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
rrrrrrrrrrrrr

Don't you get $$ back and other bene's cause of $hit like that???

what the fuck good is the peasily compensation they give if I've got tickets for Wales v Australia at €250 each going to waste?
