    Middle aged men who wear velcro fastenings on their shoes. Just learn to do up laces like a grown up...

    As you get older, and I know, bending down to tie laces gets difficult if not impossible (blood runs to head and one passes out!). The answer is either slip-ons or Velcro.
    Where does the blood run to when you're younger and why don't the young pass out ? Genuine question.

    The young have less brains, so there's more room for the blood - Raymond Baxter told me that, if you don't know who he is, then you are young!

    Jeez lighten up fenny, I'm sure there's a 100 things I do that annoy others but it's an irrational thread all round innit not meant to be taken that seriously!

    Right, I'll be off for a routine, run of the mill, bog standard toss now...

    Older people are excused Peter I wouldn't want to be held responsible for a rise in A&E figures.

    You'll find out when you're middle-aged.

    That sounds fair enough to me, most tickets are too expensive but that doesn't mean you can't go.
  • The war on " insert whatever ".
    I think this started with "The war on terror", but now used for every single campaign going!

  • I referenced business speak some pages back. I came across the following profiles on the team page of this company's website.

    http://www.tmsdi.com/about-us.php

    Each one is more sickening than the one before it, right down to the very end. However, the ones that really got me were

    "I like coming up with creative bespoke solutions to meet our clients’ needs, seeing their outcomes and making sure that they work in practice."

    "From accreditation through to client support each interaction is as important and valuable to us as the next - I love delivering such a high level of service."

    "I take great pride in knowing that when our clients contact us, we’ll take every step to ensure we can meet their individual needs."

    Surely all this bollocks goes as standard. You have clients you have to look after them. You cannot tell me you cherish every bloody interaction you have with them, it's not human. Sickening.

    People that say "I'm a labour voter" or "I'm a tory voter" etc.

    Exactly. Doesn't come across as genuine at all. If someone started talking about that in a pub when asked about what their job entailed they would be laughed at.

    I sometimes think I'm on the outside of this great big bubble re: how to act and communicate in the business world. I know these people are probably genuinely decent people working hard, but someone, somewhere has told them it'll be a really good idea to spout some generic blurb about how committed to their clients. It goes right down to their IT Manager.....

    I wrote my part of my annual appraisal today, it reads almost identical to the above.

    Appraisals really, really annoy me. For the life of me I cant see the relevance to the crap job (that really annoys me too) I do. When I questioned the the purpose of of my appraisal, stating its pointless and meaningless, my head of department told me not doing is not an option but just write something and pick a course to go on even an Excel course will do. That annoyed me so I Googled appraisals and copied and pasted a load of pointless guff I found on various sites.

    A box ticking exercise from what I see in many organisations. They have to be seen to be done.

    In theory, if people can interact constructively, they are a good idea but too often the employee fears anything said being later used against him or her and the employer uses it as an excuse to slag the staff off.
  • Been reminded by the other thread.....Comedy songs. What's worse is when someone in the office says "oh have you heard this one it's really funny" to which it gets played and they laugh, a couple of other people sort of laugh and I'm left to do that uncomfortable smile. Don't think I've ever heard a funny one apart from the 3 minute song by that Aussie bloke that wears eyeliner.
