Red Squirrel May 2016 4:46pm, 17 May 2016 19,151 posts	Quote Pin Red Squirrel People ringing this office to complain their email hasn't been answered. When I ask them who their email was from, it turns out it's from staff at our other site 15 miles away. Why don't they just chase up the originator of the email? I end up getting involved and having to email the person they're complaining about.
Red Squirrel May 2016 12:13pm, 18 May 2016 19,154 posts	Quote Pin Red Squirrel Smartphone suggested words for the ones I typed. It offers 3 suggestions and often greys out the one I want. What's that all about? Why not just offer 3 options with none of them greyed out? Sly.
XB May 2016 12:18pm, 18 May 2016 3,339 posts	Quote Pin XB Surveys surveys surveys. Especially ones that ask "how likely are you to recommend xxx to your friends and family?" I always answer highly unlikely because I haven't got all the data to make an informed recommendation that Capital One's credit card is the best one in the circumstances. This morning I had my annual blood and BP test at the GPs. Two hours later I got a text asking "How likely are you to recommend Pendleside Medical Practice to friends and family if they needed similar treatment?". Fuck's sake.
