My company since the outbreak of COVID-19 has advised all customers purchasing beds settees and the like that we are not allowed to come into peoples houses and to ensure If an item needs to be taken to the back or upstairs of the house that sufficient people be on site to achieve this. Anyway was on the job this afternoon and I’ve got this new settee to his blokes door who then asked me to help him carry it upstairs, told him sorry mate and he went mental shouting, swearing and barking like a dog. Had to leg it in the end I have no time at all for people who seem to think because they have paid for a particular service/product they own employees and can tell them what to do. I used to work in a wedding venue and we had a bride once that absolutely lost it because my boss wouldn't make one of the serving staff give her a foot rub. "it's my wedding day" "I've paid a lot of money". Yeah, you paid for food and the venue, not some poor bastard on minimum wage to touch your disgusting feet or risk losing their job. Luckily the boss was good at protecting his staff and laughed her away. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KenjiOgiwara Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 (edited) People who are English and don't know the difference between it's and its or their or there or loosing and losing. Worst bit is that I think most people know, they just don't care. I'd also add my job. I have a great new position, good job, good salary. I'm lucky. BUT since we work in consultancy we have heaps and heaps of work. It's a recession proof business to a certain degree, so we have done quite well during Covid, but what pisses me off is how difficult it is to take vacation. I'm due 10 weeks. Had plans of taking out 4 weeks this summer, and was supposed to be off already last Wed. but work has just kept ticking in and it's just fecking impossible to get away from it. I'm hoping I can take vaca from today, but I can already see 2-3 projects causing problems within the next couple of weeks, so I fully expect people to start calling me to do stuff. It was easy when I was single, but with a SO that expects me to be there when she's off, it's not so fun anymore. **** knows how it pans out when you get kids. I genuinly don't get what my colleagues with kids do. Guess they just don't care and turn off their phones.
