Yes, and she sings with the confidence of someone who has been told all their life that they are amazing. Instead of being told the truth!Oh dear, I guess my rant is now nepo babies who can't sing, dance or act being given such an opportunity...
Read your comment whilst I was listening to a symphony of lawn mowers and some power drill in the distanceHow can you tell it’s a bank holiday? Count the amount of power tools currently in operation.
I just got a box of these and felt like the world's stupidest person trying to figure out how to get into them.this is me with those new cardboard waste free bold/persil boxes. i think you’re meant to squeeze and lift in order to get into them but i just CANNOT DO IT - i’ve literally had to tear into the one i’m currently using, it looks like a dog has been chewing on it.
they’re child-safe and also lablonde-safe apparently 🥲
i’m so glad it’s not just me! i read those instructions MULTIPLE times and ended up just clawing my way through the lid. i’ve hidden the box away out of shameI just got a box of these and felt like the world's stupidest person trying to figure out how to get into them.
Mine's just been ripped open at the sides as welli’m so glad it’s not just me! i read those instructions MULTIPLE times and ended up just clawing my way through the lid. i’ve hidden the box away out of shame
I hope you feel better soon. There's nothing worse than not being near the toilet when you have an upset stomach.Came back from holiday last night.
Had an upset stomach. Thought I was over it so drove to supermarket. Thought I was going to shit myself so drove home as soon as I got there. The supermarket doesn’t have toilets.
Get home, feel fine.
FFS. Sorry for TMI, too!
Thank youI hope you feel better soon. There's nothing worse than not being near the toilet when you have an upset stomach.
Lost a family member years ago and someone used to post a long verse about him every year on Facebook. It drove me mad as it was for attention. This person would pass me in the street and not speak to me but thought it appropriate to post.Linked in posts. Just seen one where someone has used the passing of his colleague as an excuse to post. The guy died the day before and he’s posting on LinkedIn with an “rip mate” yes sure, wtf. If anyone used the passing of my loved one for a LinkedIn post I would track them down and beat the absolute shit out of them. How disrespectful.
I think people do it to take their frustrations out on people they know can't answer back.10 mins before work I took a bit of a danger trip into Tesco and waited at the tills as I had a trolley. Only one till open at 10 to 8, honestly not a problem as I'm the one who decided to go in. There was a lady paying at the till, a woman in front of me with her trolley full on the conveyer and then me waiting in the back.
The woman at the front had her shopping scanned and her eggs felt light to the cashier, who checked them and found two missing. There was no one else in as it was so early in the morning and so she offered to get the eggs for the lady paying herself. The woman in the middle then gave the loudest huff and eye roll ever, which makes no sense whatsoever as she's the one who chose to come in so early to work too? Like we've both made the choice, either leave your stuff behind and get it later or just suck it up that you'll be a few mins late to work. Why do people have to be awful to people that they see as working "menial" jobs
A couple of years ago, it was announced where I worked was closing, and we would have the choice between 2 other locations. One was customer facing, the other wasn't.10 mins before work I took a bit of a danger trip into Tesco and waited at the tills as I had a trolley.

That‘s awful, I’m sorry that happened to you. I do not get why customers are so horrible to retail staff.A couple of years ago, it was announced where I worked was closing, and we would have the choice between 2 other locations. One was customer facing, the other wasn't.
I was very pregnant at the time, and we were in the middle of a 40° heatwave. I was still trying to decide which job to take, when a woman came into the shop and proceeded to scream at me that I was a stupid c^nt because we had no fans left. What I wanted to do was scream back "they've been warning us this was coming for days now, why the hell did you wait until now to get a fan, you silly twat??" But I had to stand there being polite to this horrible woman.
That was the day that pushed me off the fence to choose the job without customers.
I've worked in retail since I was 16, and people just get worse as time passes. I've been screamed at, spoken to like dirt, and even had things thrown at me. But we have to put up and shut up, because God forbid we upset the customer.
When I was 17 I had a man look at me dead in the eyes and say ‘you can’t have done well at school then.’ That was 17 years ago and it’s stuck with me.A couple of years ago, it was announced where I worked was closing, and we would have the choice between 2 other locations.

That makes sense to me now, how the assistants looked as a customer coughed into the face of an assistant for 5 minutes. No one said anything apart from the entitled customer. The assistants just looked like "victims" - especially the one being coughed over who couldn't get away.A couple of years ago, it was announced where I worked was closing, and we would have the choice between 2 other locations.

I've just come across this that I thought I'd lost forever, from a magazine years ago.That‘s awful, I’m sorry that happened to you. I do not get why customers are so horrible to retail staff.
I still remember being in a central London M&S a couple of days before Christmas and a woman was losing her shit at the retail worker for something that wasn’t even her fault. Honestly, she was so rude and nasty I couldn’t not say anything so I did actually step in and tell her to back off and not speak to the worker that way. She told me to fuck off so I just said perhaps she should be the one to fuck off until she calmed down and could treat people with courtesy. Amazingly, she stormed off!
Sorry, I know that sounds a bit ‘everyone got up and clapped’
I worked somewhere with glass between the customer and worker and I remember the managers sending pregnant women out to see violent customers.I wish I had the guts to tell customers to shut up when they were being rude.
I have a relative that stood up to a customer and threatened them through the glass when she worked in a bankahhhhh I can only dream of having that level of IDGAF
