The grumble thread

[ComaChameleon]

Sometimes it can help to just scream it out what's [Removed] you off....

I'll start...

As my "company" (aid relief, but behaving like a company) changed so many things.... Our teamleader was thrown out, is a normal co-worker now... The shiftplans are "planed" centrally now (I can't even say it's planned, that would imply it has a structure, but it's just like throwing [Removed] on a paper). The shiftplan is.... just no. We work our asses off, have plushours galore and the other watch has minushours. So they have freetime enough and we thought about putting containers on the watch to live there, because we don't know why we pay rent for our flats - we're hardly ever there!... And the best shifts are always given to the temporary workers who already have a very good job, so they get the extra amount on money instead of us....

Next week I can finally take my annual leave from LAST year (by law you have to take it by 31th march by exception... I got it excepted even longer. I'm so ready for a holiday!

Certainly, Jane - although my experiment with Tanqueray No10 and the Fever Tree Mediterranean tonic this week was somewhat underwhelming - the Bombay Sapphire tastes much better with that particular mixer. 

I shall have to try the Tanqueray No10 again with the regular Indian Fever Tree tomorrow night, if I don't use Hogmanay as an excuse to crack open a bottle of malt....

If we are starting to drink early...we should maybe move it into the lounge?

Otherwise every thread will become a drinking den....

Starting the New Year with a grumble.

My son has taken his Corsa in to see why the power steering occasionally cuts out . Apparently it needs a 'steering wheel replacement sensor'.

Vauxhall have quoted him £1590 to do the job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Needless to say, we wont be going there!!!!!
