Wet towels on the bed or worse found in the spare room after he goes to work on a Monday Morning...
Opening post and leving the envelope on the side - put it in the bin FFS.
Instead of rinseing the cup you are using, taking a new one from the cupboard just to put another cup of tea in it.
Empty packets back in the fridge/cupboard - my old flatemate did that ALL the time
Women who leave the price stickers on the soles of their footwear.
Women who don't have bras that fit them and end up looking like they have 4 boobs.
Women with a sprinkler attachment in the pub loo - no love I don't want to sit in your piss thanks very much.

1. People who use the word 'draw' instead of 'drawer'. Someone said on a thread recently, they had a 'draw full of user ids'. No you ******* don't. It's a drawer !!
2. A bloke here at clientco uses the word 'pacific' constantly instead of 'specific'. He says things (ususally at meetings), like, "There's a couple of pacific things we need to discuss)
Both of the above make my ******* blood boil
Anyone else get upset by things they really shouldn't ????
Stop moaning sad act! If I want to put things in a draw I will do. Now I'm off to drawer a nice picture of me putting a drawering into a nice big chest of draws and in the biggest draw you'll see that's where I keep all of my other drawerings. I think I'll drawer this to a close nowRule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.
I preferred version 1!Comment
