I think you should have gone to the foyer to tell them to ask on the tannoy that it’s been backed into the side of and the drivers fucked off.

junkyarddog Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Not a huge grump in the greater scheme of things,but today I decided to give my Golf a wash as it was extremely grimy(one of the downsides of living in the sticks). Gave it a good going over with the shampoo,rinsed it off,then dried it off too. Jobs a goodun. Went in for a cuppa and returned out to this. Fuck me,why do I even bother. 🙄 Remspoor, BorniteIdentity and Barry Cade 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minimad5 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Now those of you who have me on Facebook may have seen I've been having some trouble with DHL. Parcel was to be delivered on a certain date. I wasn't going to be home so changed the date (and got a confirmation) Get home to a note wedged in the front door (HELLO EVERYONE THIS HOUSE IS EMPTY) ... But yeah the note said parcel was in green bin. Checked both bins - Nada. Tracking says to be delivered the date I asked for ... i'm confused, so email DHL. They pass my email onto depot and say 'we'll be in touch' Today a delivery bloke turns up with a piece of paper in hand and starts asking me questions 🤦♂️, now don't get me wrong I understand they want to find out what's happened, but I just found this approach a bit too confrontational, why the depot couldn't have got a statement from him, then contacted me via email or phone 🤷♂️ Good job I was home, as my missus panics a bit when random folk rattle the door. myglaren 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wack Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 eBay made me sign a legally binding statement enforceable in court to confirm I'd received a return not in the condition I'd sent it Then refused the claim because they couldn't check it wasn't in the condition I'd sent it or it was even the same one So much for the legally binding statement then BorniteIdentity 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghosty Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 So we have to book our Christmas leave for the third time in the morning. I asked if they could guarantee we wouldn't have to rebook again. "Absolutely not" I just responded 'reassuring'. What are these people on. It's not even our fault ffs. myglaren 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High Jetter Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 My wife's usually a bit tired too! 😃 However, we're the same - if we're not expecting someone any caller is pretty likely to be a nuisance or a neighbour. Or maybe word has got round, since a few years back Jehovah's Witnesses rang the doorbell about 10am one Sunday and got a mouthful from me for waking me up!

You'd think closed curtains in both front rooms of a bungalow would be a hint. The last time this happened was in 2004. This is because the fucking cunts buzzed at 08:30. On a Sunday. I'd gone to bed at 04:30 because late shifts. So I asked who it was; might have been a neighbour in need of help. It wasn't, so I told the to fuck off and called them inconsiderate cunts for not taking into account shift workers. Cunts like that can get in the fucking sea. 😇 High Jetter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might work. I found it equally profitable to keep them on the doorstep whilst asking all kinds of trivial questions. After about 35 minutes they seemed desperate to get away.... Living in an Orthodox Jewish neighbourhood, I don't see Witlesses much now. Come to think of it, I don't even get visits from the local rabbi since I took the mezuzah off the door frame....
