Job interview feedback that is all positive when the job went to someone else. Pointless.

Cyclists. This morning whilst waiting at a pelican crossing one cyclist just sailed through the red light going in the opposite direction. I pointed it out to him, I may as well have been speaking Russian to him, he didn't see that he'd done anything wrong. Then on my side of the road another cyclist waited until the person had crossed and then he just went through the red light. When the lights changed I caught up to him and said that he'd gone through a red light, he said "I know". Then I said he's making all us cyclists look like cocks by doing it and he said "I don't care".
The first cyclist was just a gadge on a bike so it's almost understandable. The other one had a proper bike and was wearing proper cycling gear so you'd think he would give a toss, but clearly he didn't. I hope someone steals the stupid bellend's bike, that'll learn him!

Delivery companies, jeeze.
Had a notification I was due a delivery, for which I knew I would not be in for. Rang them to point this out, and that by a happy coincidence was passing through near their depot on the same day and could pick the package up.
Surely a win-win - they save on the cost/time of attempting a delivery that was not going to be fulfilled, and I'd get my parcel with no extra trip. Cost, and planet saving stuff.
But no. Can't do it, they stated they HAVE to attempt a first delivery, only then I could pick it up. So they're out trying to make a delivery today which will fail, I will pass by later today unable to collect my parcel as it will still be in the delivery van and then I'll have to make a seperate specific trip tomorrow to get it.
Fucking arseholes.

My girlfriend trying to tell me she's had a long hard day when she went figure skating in the morning, had a dance lesson in the afternoon then did 2 hours of tutoring work with an hours travel time, when I've been at work all day. If I had the chance to do what I loved for a good proportion of the day and work less I wouldn't be moaning about it! I don't moan I've had a hard day when I go for a 10 mile run on a saturday morning then come back clean the house.

Drives who, when passing though traffic light controlled roadworks, pull out about quarter of a mile back from the lights so that if the lights turn red again before said driver's turn will go through anyway, on the basis they're already committed. There is no need to pull out until you can see the 'stop here when the lights are red' sign.

Parents of kids at my daughter's primary school. Some kids turned up yesterday with bright coloured dip-dyed hair, which is against uniform policy. The school sent a text to all parents last night warning that ridiculous hairstyles are not allowed. One parent decided to stick two fingers up at the school by dip-dying her 8yo daughter's hair bright pink last night and then posted a picture of it on Facebook as if it's something to be proud of. Thick benefit scounging scumbags.

Not just dyed hair, dip-dyed hair. The area we live in isn't that bad and at least one of the kids who has had it done has "normal" parents.

Dip dyed hair always reminds me of My Little Pony.

At the gym, people using the one shower by the swimming pool / sauna to WASH THEIR HAIR! Dude, that's what the dozen or so cubicles in the changing rooms are for.
