A sore point with me and one I've posted a thread on.

The honours system is nauseating enough but rewarding people for incompetence and then rewarding them again with crucial positions and big salaries really gets my goat.
Websites that load in stutters and leave the last page shift downwards until three seconds after the penultimate, so your finger - that was heading happily towards ‘special offers’ - instead crashes into ‘terms and conditions.’
No, bloomin’ 150Mb FTTP. Doesn’t help, though.Are you still on dial-up in Marchbank Towers?
like "what? They're shit!".
And so to resume:
Businesses that are 'here for you'.

This thread is here for you
This is the best post I’ve read in ages.Once again, we can only apologise for the interruption to this thread. It too it seems could not escape the effects of the pandemic, with the efforts of forum members being totally expended trying to keep it together whilst the world turns to shit that the capacity simply was not there to complain about the little things in life that really shouldn't matter but somehow still do. Whilst this situation is understandable it cannot be allowed to continue. And so to resume:
Businesses that are 'here for you'. My bank is so here for me they have emailed me 3 times this month, including one that the Chief Irritating Officer personally wanted to write to me (me, not you) to assure me that he really cares how I am and that the banking facilities that have remain unchanged for ages and I pay for are still here for me.
I even had one from the water company telling me that the water is here for me too. 'I know', I thought to myself, 'it's pissing it down as I type'. He neglected to mention what they had told me a few days earlier though, which is that between the hours of 10pm and 6am this week the water may not be here for me, or at least might be a bit cloudy and hungover. But no problem, to get it clean just run the tap for 20 minutes. What's that sir, middle of the night you say, water meter you say?
