That so much of our lives and data is online - but sorting pension payments still requires an endless paper trail on top of endless online forms.
Said paper trail also costs a small fortune in postage and large envelopes as pension companies don't seem to like spending their fees on postage-paid return stationery.

I've just been to the petrol station and lined up behind the car that I guessed would be first to leave. 30 secs later the driver appears clutching his Subway breakfast. This makes opening the car slow and awkward. Then he's arranging his food and drink before checking his phone and responding to messages. All this while I'm parked right behind him.

I eventually went to another pump and had pumped £50's worth before he finally drove off.

Annoying people that are big and aggressive looking so you have to vent your anger on a running website rather than dealing with the issue at the time.
