    People who try to take over and organise everything, but in reality, couldn’t organise a piss up in a brewery.

    This. Particularly if they know nothing about whatever they’re trying to do and don’t listen to people that do. It used to annoy me massively but nowadays I just walk away knowing they’re going to fuck it up and think ‘good luck to them’.

    NHS / doctors. Been on and off to the doctors for a year with a pain in the hip, finally diagnosed as a dodgy tendon, and the answer was a steroid injection, waited two months and today’s the day, 30 minutes late going in, asked do I know why I’m there, yes. Where the pain, showed him, well a steroid injection won’t work there. Get examined again they can’t find the problem, go back and see your doctor and start over again.

    Don’t get me wrong I’m pleased I didn’t get an injection that wasn’t necessary, but to restart all over again is very annoying. Now got to wait to the original doctor who will order more X-rays / scans etc., so will probably be another year of limping and my wife moaning that I can’t keep up with her and having to stop ever 1500 steps.

    Sorry about whinging but well down at the moment.

    Same. In the last few months (work and personal life) I do just that. Give them enough rope to hang themselves and when they ask for help or moan about it etc I give very little response.

    Same thing happened to my wife with her foot. Several referrals, appointments, day of the injection, nope, we can’t do that. Back to square one. Having worked in that field with data, I can tell you they do not link data, all different systems and don’t communicate. Not that that’ll come as a shock to you.
