Catering companies delivering at 5am to the hotel I'm in tonight. Thanks reception, I asked for a QUIET room, not one I get woken up in as early as if I was at home and commuting in!

Constantly waking up at 4am for the last two weeks without fail, for no reason.
Absolutely shattered.

Stress is usually responsible for this.

Happens to me

So, yesterday's 4am is last week's 5am.
You're getting there.
Think positive!

I ask them to stop and they carry on, I ask to speak to a supervisor and they just carry on or give me abuse, I ask to be removed from their calling list and they either carry on or give me abuse, some of them just hang up. Seriously getting fed up with these guys.

supermarket self service tills

Put my stuff on the large one where the woman in front has just finished when she then decides it has made a mistake. she will not go to customer services and is refusing to pay until they check her 2 for 8 pound claim.

So after a couple of minutes I pack my stuff back in the trolley and off to a free small one.

It refuses to work for me, because I put my bag in place in order to load the stuff I scan. It worked ok when you had free plastic bags. But they are not there any more you have to bring your own and it doesn't like them there as it needs to weigh your stuff.

Left trolley loaded at the till and walked out. (taking my bags for life with me)

Grrhhhh
