@derivative666:

I'm sorry Qin. I should know better =-(

That's ok - just so you know, it took me ages to measure and compose my response to your initial question about my butless chaps.

@mclaincausey:

Here's a white collar, first world problem that's not really even a problem to waste a few bits with.

I don't appreciate when people reserve a meeting room for 12 people in order to have a one on one meeting. Go meet in the closet spaced room, I have to find a place to get 10 people together and it's too cold to go outside.

If someone books my favourite meeting room (6 seats), I always look for the boardrooms next, generally I have about 4 in a meeting, and the boardrooms hold 20. Sorry MCL ::)

[mclaincausey]

In m situation that's not an option. We can't book certain rooms. With some ranting and raging I have expanded my universe a bit though. The rest of my black art is passive aggressive actions like opening the door and walking halfway in to the room I booked that folks are lingering in

It's how we survive in the jungle, right? Gotta get your jollies where you can in the office. Love doing such things.

Currently doing battle with Okayama denim..  Iron heart UK they certainly are fucking not.  Lesson learnt I spose

So I had to let the guys from the water company know how much water I'd used last year… Sure thing... Downstairs in the dark storage room... Hmmm this must be it... Right-o lad there ya go...

Got my bill: 237 €... For water... And I had already paid 120 over the course of the year... So I thought we had a leak... But now I'm thinking I gave them the figures for the gas meter...

The eejit (quite possibly) strikes again...

[Seul]

Yep - the eejit has struck… I've only used 65m³ of water - meaning I'll have to pay 20 €... Rather a big difference... 

[hajduk]

Eli,
237 Euros of cold or warm water??

[Seul]

Just water… Warm and cold... So yeah: it's not 237 but 20...

Money goes to the 666-UHR Foundation... 

[hajduk]

I was thinking you've somehow managed to get beer on tap. Literal water into booze ala Jesus.

Snow to rain to sleet and back to snow with thunder, possible lightning and high winds all in one storm.  I usually love it, but damn do I hate Michigan weather sometimes…

[ohighyo]

When I moved to michigan the realtor told me, I you don't like the weather wait ten minutes.

[emceeQ]

That about sums it up…

I feel like the people in every region I've ever lived say that. Except Hawaii. The weather there is always the same. 73, partly cloudy, chance of showers. Every. Day.

The mail has been utter crap lately.  I've had 50% of packages come at least two days late in the last month.

[ohighyo]

Just thinking the same thing. Why am I paying for priority when it takes 2-3 more days! Bullshit!!!

Just got done selling a shitload of patagonia shit that has been sitting in my closet for years. Got a good return on all of it considering some have been sitting there for 5+ years. Every package was two days late. Every.one.

[Anesthetist]

It seems like it has been this way since they added tracking to every package. It took three days for a package to get from Chicago to St. Louis which is roughly a 6 hour drive.

[bagley920]

Because they don't have the infrastructure to support it. Have you not noticed the commercials saying "up to 11 scans". Really? That arbitrary?
