Re: What really grinds my gears, thread! - Ruan - 07-03-2012 As above - People who assume that Computer Knowledge is free... My work hire me out at £180 a day to customers - just because I'm round your house and I do computers for a living, doesn't mean I'm going to fix your computer for free...

You can have a look at ours, it's really slow and is full of Virusses" It's like saying to a Dyno-Rod guy: "Oh you clear drains for a living? You can have a look at ours, did a banging shit the other day and they're all blocked" And then expect them to do it for free... Total piss take. Just because we find it easy to fix computers, doesn't mean it's worth nothing...

Bearing in mind you have to take a day off every time you go because she only works weekdays. Also bearing in mind that this now means that you've wasted one precious day of annual leave and will have to use another one to finally get it. If I pay money for a service I expect that service to be delivered, if I pay A LOT OF MONEY on a service I expect it to be immaculate and the "service providers" to ensure things run smoothly! I'm not saying there's no room for emergencies and thank f*ck she phoned well in advance but I still feel VERY annoyed seeing as I've already paid her and now all the inconvenience is with me! ARGH! /rant! Re: What really grinds my gears, thread! - devils_fuel - 07-03-2012 What reason did she give you for the delay? If not a good enough reason I would say we had a verble contract for a service standard and a finished product, as the service is substandard to the original agreement, you would like to renegotiate the price as there is a new verbale contract....unless its in writing and you can show the contract breech ![]() But then that's me + I work for a student letting company and have to deal with tenancys all day so im anal when it comes to contracts Re: What really grinds my gears, thread! - Hitchos - 07-03-2012 Yeah Ruan the A1 up here from darlington to dishforth is all 50 miles an hour with average speed camers hence why i go down the A19 its much quicker Re: What really grinds my gears, thread! - Poodle - 07-03-2012 Ruan Wrote:Tourists on backroads, get the f*ck off the back roads and stick to the A30 where you belong, you can't drive these roads and you are incapable, so get your face in a map, not the sat nav. This too, any sunny weekend in the new forest will find you coming round a corner to find some useless londoner sat bang in the middle of the road. Will they do the intelligent thing and move over so you can both pass without slowing? Will they hell - the verge might bite their car! Instead they're going to slam on their brakes, stay precisely in the centre of the road and start swearing about how you can't drive, or worse, start reversing looking for a "passing spot"... You're not going to find a passing spot love, this is a two-way road, at least i can drive round the fuckwit who's refusing to move. ![]() Re: What really grinds my gears, thread! - ginge191 - 07-03-2012 Ruan Wrote:Anyone who's from a Touristy place will get what I mean on this... feel your pain!

Oi! I'll have you know I spend most of my time in Cornwall overtaking people doing 25 in 60 zones. Also, I know my way round Cornwall very well... Most tourists, not all :naughty: But yeah, what fucks me off royally recently is people STEALING MY f*cking SKODA-BADGED MACHINED ALLOY VALVE CAPS!!!!!!!!
