The rare times I’m forced to use SalesForce are pure misery. It’s like the developers took everything wrong with Sharepoint and amplified the pain.
SalesForce with Sharepoint. Seriously.

This is my life now. I hate it already.

What I would really like on phones and please show me if there is (android), is a feature whereby all social media settings are immediately set to hide your presence like incognito on browsers.

This would immediately allow you to navigate without having to explain why you were seen browsing but not replying as you just wanted some peace and quiet for a bit. That's my room 101 bit, the fact you are consistently wired up. No wonder people have problems.

When your kid knocks your phone off the table (because you put it in a stupid place) and the screen cracks. :x
Between tedium and fright
Such is the song of the nether world
The hissing of rats
And the jarring chants of angels

When you have your rubbish bin stolen to be set on fire for the umpteen time this year. And with street cameras that can't tell who is doing it.

Scumbags. Who pays for new bin, you I guess?

In a way we all do I suppose.

However we seem to be ignoring the possibility that it is in fact Lee that's stealing his own bin before setting it on fire.

Yesterday.

I came down with a shitty cold, my Xmas present arrived from Sweden and opening it showed that it was damaged in transit, and my computer died, cause currently unknown.

Just before I finish work for 2 weeks.

Ouch. Hope you get the stuff all sorted and stop being near sick people at this time of year!

This idiot lawyer who bragged on twitter about killing a fox. Got zero sympathy for the backlash he's getting.

What's worse is he's anti Brexit and now people are saying "Remain voters kill animals" which is doing my nut in like what's that got to do with it?

Flickr:

My sister quit because of the price. She got an email today from them stating that they got taken over last year when the company was losing a lot of money.

In short they're still losing shitloads of money and want my sisters help to save them by taking out a membership and will offer a 25% discount to do so.

They can get in the fucking sea :lol:

Had an Asda delivery which was 30 minutes late, which isn’t usually the case and in itself isn’t the end of the world. But when the driver finally turned up, there wasn’t a word of apology or acknowledgement that he was that late for a 1 hour delivery slot. Then he made me wait while he spent bloody ages going back to get the shopping from his van, which he’d parked down the street for some reason.

I don’t like to rant about delivery drivers too much because most have shitty working conditions, but fuck me if some aren’t a waste of space.

I agree, I know that most delivery drivers work their butt off for little pay.

I had an Amazon delivery during the holidays though which was not of insignificant value - several PC components. I happened to check their tracker which showed the driver being outside my house, so went down to open the door to them only to find my packages left on the porch step (not behind the recycling bin which is my designated 'not home' location). Fucker didn't even ring the bell.
