You: buy our details from B2B marketing scrapers and spam us with your shit...
We: block your business at domain level the first time and you never contact anyone in the entire organisation ever again!
Hope it was worth it.

I bloody hate websites that say "Hello X201" or "Welcome back X201" as if you're already logged in and ready to go, but the minute you actually want to do anything meaningful they just direct you to a log on screen anyway.

Designers of bathroom fittings are the shittest designers in any domain.
Pop-up plugs, or any plug that isn’t a rubber disk on a metal chain, are useless, over-engineered wank. Ours has just jammed again and no amount of twisting, tapping or swearing at is working.
The same sink has a ceramic column around all the piping which is siliconed to the tile wall. So I can’t get access to anything to try to fix it.
So a big Fuck You to the sociopathic career failure that made those design decisions. You talentless fuckhead prick.

Woke up this morning feeling sick to my stomach, no idea why.
Downed some medicine, forced myself to go to work when all I really wanted was to stay in the bathroom and hug the toilet.
Light rain all morning right up until the moment I open my door, when it starts absolutely fucking slashing it down. Standing there at the bus stop with no shelter, drenched and freezing, bus turns up ten minutes late.
Still feeling sick, not helped by the bus driver being on some kind of "I must hit every pothole as violently as possible" mission. There was also a bloke loudly humming the same Dire Straits song repeatedly for almost the full twenty five minute journey.
By the time I get to work, I am basically a walking ball of hate and resentment, and the deputy manager decides to pair me up with a new starter. Normally I'd be alright with this, but one of the first things this guy tells me is that he'll be getting his HGV license in less than two weeks and then he'll be gone. Any training I give today will be a complete waste of time.
For fucks sake. I want a cup of tea and a lie down.

It could do with some TLC.
Why the fuck, in the middle of a bunch of Lebanon Hanover songs, is YouTube trying to push GB News horsehit at me? Algorithm my arse.

It may be a regional thing but nobody can say the word ‘escalate’ and always pronounce it ‘esculate’ for some fucking reason.

Someone I used to work with said "infantstructure". Considering how much they used the word I'm surprised nobody took them aside and corrected them.
I certainly didn't because it was always the highlight of back to back teams calls...

Bit different with ‘axe’ or more properly I think, ‘aks’ as that one is associated with vernacular from ethnic minority communities, so it’s quite different than just being a mistake and actually has roots in older forms of English too I believe.
The one I hear a lot in my sector is ‘adaptions’. That one really is lazy thinking.

Maybe, but when the people saying it are as white as the driven snow and would very much English I'm not sure that's always the reason I actually don't care much how people pronounce things, or if they get it wrong, as long as the meaning is clear |

Haha yes! Or from round are way, my old man saying ‘celery’ for ‘salary’, or ‘Kerry’ for ‘curry’. Only the old school really broad fuckers talk like this now though and everybody wants to be a Mancunian instead. |

The woman that makes the coffee at the work coffee shop always ‘corrects’ me when I ask for an espresso. It’s even more annoying than just getting it wrong. |
