What a load of prolix. I used to work 'Secured Loans' and colleagues used to call them SL Loans. I used to make a point of correcting them; "You're saying loans twice, just says SLs". Nobody really paid much interest, I don't think they understood what I was saying. It was a while before I realised the 'L' stood for Lending, not Loans. Hence the 2008 financial crash. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 I've had a next day delivery from Hermes pending since 31st of October. They tried to deliver it once, on a Friday night at 21:00, to an office. Then claimed it was the third time they tried to deliver it, even though their own tracking info shows that's not the case. The retailer gave them a kick up the arse and told them to try again. For 6 days it's been "coming out tomorrow". Today "We can not find your address". It's an office with 40 people in it. I think they're actually a storage company in disguise. **** Hermes. I will genuinely never buy anything again that's being delivered by this bunch of absolute **** amateurs.

Sam-AVFC Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 One of my teachers used to tell us how important it was to pre-prepare. Depressingly he was the most able member of the religious studies department by some margin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Main rule is never go into a trap next to someone else when there is one further away. The other one is never come out of a cubicle when someone else has just come out. You wait until that person has washed their hands and left before coming out. That way you avoid the awkward "we've both just had a shit at work look" with the other person. Didn't realise they had disabled toilets with multiple stalls in 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's the problem, no one has written it down. There are probably loads of unwritten rules around the world for males, females and maybe even animals. I think there is a book (Or a series in it for you) in it for you, "Setting it Down, Xela Abroad" In a cruel twist of fate I suppose, it is destined to become the ultimate "Toilet Book: The Code". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
