I hate

Exactly.

I was once asked in a room full of medical professionals 'What type of biscuit are you and why?'

I had to watch a room full of people who should know better dutifully comparing themselves to custard creams. Like Blind Date but without the innuendo.

I declined to join in, pointing out in fact, I was not a biscuit nor did I feel it was helpful for my patients to think of me as such.

First day on a training course at a new company we were made to draw a sort of heraldic shield that described ourselves.
I probably ruined my career by saying that my Brother-in-Law had to do the same exercise when he was Sectioned under the Mental Health Act.

I had to do that one on a graduate group assessment thing. I was offered the job, 12 months later, 6 months after I'd started a job elsewhere and had moved across the country.

When someone specifies a time for a meeting (phone zoom etc) and I set aside the time. Then they don’t call or accept my call and I have blocked the time out for them. The moment I start another task they try and call.

Bring your Daughter to the Slaughter

Corollary: When someone accidentally sets a meeting as a teams meeting and then when you dial in from home gets shitty with you because you're not there in person

Fucking fucking Facebook.

Despised it from the moment I came across an ad disguised as part of the site, or was it around the same time I noticed a total lack of transparency and functionality of that fucking cesspit. Anyway, from about five minutes after I got an account forever ago.

Just been through a ridiculous runaround trying to help my old man recover his hacked account. Actually got through the stupid maze, I think? Link clicked in recovery email, etc, etc, going through previous account activity, trying to answer amazingly ambiguous forms about a couple of people unfriended by the hacker in the last few days, and, 'sorry, something went wrong' and now that stupid piece of shit app (which I absolutely refuse to install despite every bit of arm-twisting, and which I tell other people not to install because they can just use their phone's browser in desktop mode) is trying to say there's suddenly no internet access even though the phone totally has internet.

FUCKING ARSEHOLE PIECE OF SHIT I CAN'T EVEN

You should've removed Facebook at least 5 years ago

And then the meeting should have just been an email anyway.

I only use the shit for marketplace. Couldn't give a rat's arse if I lost access to my Facebook account, but it was my dad's account I had to recover tonight... Silly git has been conducting his life on it, so I had to kick those Nigerian scammers to the kerb for him.

And what an incredible fuck-around it was. Only a combination of bloody-minded determination and a deep-seated loathing for Zuck's giant blob got me through the 267 steps of dead ends and retries on a different device or a different browser, with one hand tied behind my back on fucking Fisher-Price Apple shit I had to google how to drive every. step. of. the. way.

No more Facebook app for dad, he's looking at it through Brave. No more fucking rotten Apples too, if he wants any more tech support from me.

Awards ceremonies. Just hate them.

Even the 2012 Chicken Cottage awards?

This is amazing. The appearance of Sadiq Khan was a real surprise.

Can't quite believe I watched all of that

I hate this American style documentaries where they are constantly showing people being interviewed in a poorly lit studio

I hate the ‘interview setup’ shots that loads of documentaries seem to do now. I don’t need to see the lapel mic being attached, last minute makeup being applied, snippets of the pre-interview chat or the clapperboard. Just cut that all out so your documentary is one 90 minute single rather than an unnecessary 3 episode 4 hour slog.

Thank you so much for this. It's amazing

Would love to see an all-comers Bossman World Championships. I think.

When mugs are all following the same direction on a mug tree .. ☹️

mug trees

Haha!

People who put the tv remote next to the tv.

Alternatively - People who leave the tv remote buried under cushions in or under the sofa.

Yeah this.
I put the remote on the arm of the sofa after every time i use it. My wife just lets go of it wherever she happens to be...
