Things that piss you off that shouldn't

It's the Peter Principle at work. People get promoted based on their performance in their previous role, even if the skill set is completely different in the new job. 

I've seen a ridiculous amount of talent wasted by skilled IT workers being "promoted" to management, being absolutely crap at it, and not using their skills anymore.

When one of your supposedly best mates comes on to your missus and thinks in time I will forgive him. I also surprised myself that I never took the violent step of sorting him out which I'm glad I never, although every time I see him(we work at the same place) I feel like smacking the clearing in the woods. Must be getting soft in my old age or wiser.

I see a "falling off the roof" accident occurring...;)

There's a good chance he's busy as hell with all of the reports and metrics he's required to produce, far more frequently than anyone really reads them, or with other annoying tasks requested by more senior managers. Or he might just be a lazy word removed, what do I know.

Mary Anne Hobbs on 6 Music asked listeners to send in their favourite Ska tunes for her "Skank Holiday Monday" show. I send in my suggestion, and get a Twitter like off her (sweet). Then during the show she mostly plays songs that aren't Ska (although she's played some good Reggae, Dance Hall and Roots etc). If you say you're going to play Ska, then do so.

Arrived back from Mallorca Friday, only they didn't put a tag on my suitcase. My girlfriend told me she thought they hadn't, but not till we were near security :bang: 

Even then I thought that they can't have not but it on, it's pretty much what they are there to do as well as a couple of security checks.

At Birmingham they said it had been located in Palma and would likely be sent out to me Saturday. On Saturday they said it will arrive Sunday, yesterday they said it will be with me today. It has finally arrived in Birmingham, but won't be sent to me till Wednesday :rant:

Wouldn't be so bad if I was home but my holiday has been continuing in UK, so been getting by with few clothes.

Clothes are overrated.
