Gripe of the day - What is yours?

[BanannaMan]

Fortunately warmer temps and high winds removed the snow for me this morning.
Wasn't much I could do otherwise, still waiting on this leg to heal.

Just the same thanks for the suggestions. No doubt it's going to happen again.

whilst playing hockey today took an incredibly firmly hit ball right on my left index finger, has swollen up like a balloon, but I can move, so I don't think I've broken it and we lost to boot too

Especially when you've put all the effort in back in June and passed all the details to the accountants then, for them to get you involved in sorting out a bunch of stuff before the end of January deadline!

Similar issue here.
Had a meeting 2 months ago where I had to explain financial calculations in great detail. Today I was given 5 minutes to run through them because the person who should have taken notes couldn't be bothered.
To add insult I am now cast as the baddie because I got the hump as I went through all my figures yet again.

They're not even easy numbers to run through.

People who stand at the pelican pedestrian crossing having pushed the button waiting for the lights to change, at six in the morning when there's hardly any traffic.

It seems that young people and women more likely to do it, most men just dodge across the road when they see a gap. I can understand people with reduced mobility doing it, and people with prams but for able bodied people bit of a nonsense when no traffic around (in Germany though it is an offence to cross without using the lights, me and my mate did it and we got some proper bad looks).

If we had just put some red lights on the border in WW2 the Germans would have just waited patiently in their tanks for them to change to green, probably until they ran out of fuel LOL.

People who push the button then cross the road without waiting for the lights to change, so I have to stop for an empty crossing...
