Excuse the ferocity of the following rant but anyone else had any experience with Fedex or DHL? What a bunch of useless c**ts!!!! I got a card through last thursday saying they'd popped by at 11am and no-one was home (not an unusual occurrence I would have thought). I telephoned to rearrange another delivery for the next day saying i'd be home 'til 2.15pm. At 11am the next day I checked tracking and it hadn't left the depot. Rang (again - at 10p a minute) to ask where it was. Response: the depot hadn't heard back from you?! Can't pick the parcel up from themโฆcan't see when they can deliver (I work in the week and they don't work weekends and can't tell you if they'll be passing in the morning or afternoon). The worst is that you have to pay extra (via telephone 0800 number) to solve their fuck-ups...ie they make more cash providing a shite service than they do a good one. Unbelievable.
Why can't shops send via the normal post???? I had even worse problems with DHL (driver signed in my name and left the IH jawns in front of a neighbors gaff on the 3rd floor, having opened the package?!). UPS seem the only service worth it's salt. Long live the normal Postal service and FUCK couriers I say!!!! -
I could rant all day, and all night about Parcelforce.

fuckin fuck fuckโฆ.
wifeys cars clutch thrust bearing gave up... got it back from the shop after almost 1000โฌ bill, Included oilchanges...After 80 km's that's about 50miles similar noice fom engine compartment, drove it back, tehy checked what's wrong, new clutch is OK, but A/C compressors magnetic clutch and pulley assy has gone south...
the whole fucking compressor was replaced 3 years ago... found new pulley assy cost only 210ยฃ express shipped to me...then to find a shop toย change it...fast, need to car to move daughters stuff from her school apartment back homeand not the second without third.
Yestrerday I received my new tank for my Indian...it was delayed only 3ยฝ months,ofcourse paid in advance.ย I took a look right away...what the heck, there's no oilreturn tube though we agreed that it will be added.
Pissed, but got it sorted by calling a buddy.
Went to garage to check how it fits and if the mounting boltholes are in correct places, yup, they are, fine.
Decided to tweak mounting plates in frame before the tank is painted....so decided to look inside of the tank, just out of curiosity. WHAT.....there is no inbuilt oilcomartment at all, though these tanks always have that.....I'm totally fucked...what a bummer...Sending the tank back today for fix up, and so I'm going to miss karate trainingย as I need to hurry to the postoffice to get the tank to germany as the seller will be traveling from 27th and he needs to get the tank before that....
Sometimes when life sucks, it sucks really hard....

A-fucking-men. So much of my life spent in apoplexy waiting on my work PC (would never run Windows is I didn't have to).

Ever since Hotmail became Outlook I am unable to access my emails for roughly 75% of the dayย

Smart to wear that shirt.ย I will keep you cozy, and being red, won't show the blood stains as much

People who don't refill coffee in an office or similar setting after finishing it should be disemboweled with a rusty spoon.ย Not one, but TWO empty carafes separating me from wakeful non-ripping-your-head-off-ness.
