    Only the smart ones earn a lot and then once they are set up with expensive houses, cars etc... the income falls and they end up bankrupt (and so worthy of a new reality TV show)
    Coffee's for closers

      I read an article the other day about Jade Goody's kids' inheritance being wiped out by a tax bill. Their lawyer is fighting it, claiming it's unfair but it sounds like she thought her wedding would qualify for tax relief along with a load of other things.

        People who use the word "compo" instead of compensation.
        To my mind, anyone who says that word enough to warrant having to shorten it, is a serial claimant and basically a liar.

          Audi drivers! I'm pretty sure they're in the main sodomists and buggerers otherwise why do they sit so close to my exhaust pipe?
          Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

            I agree with all of you.

            Got one - people who park on-street leaving a good 6 foot between the front of their car and the start of the double yellow lines. Too small a gap for anyone else. *******!!

              People blocking my drive

              Noise especially human created noise such as aeroplanes, trains and traffic which can and should be designed out of the urban environment to a much greater degree than it is
              While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

                People who hold their phones in front of them when speaking into them rather than holding it to their ear

                    People who whistle. WTF? Why are you stood next to me whistling? Would you be a bit taken aback if I sat next to you and started to sing? You don't sound like percy thrower, you loook a dick, stop effin whistling will you.

                    Nail biters in public, who then, especially on trains, spit out the nail they've been chewing.

                    People who simply can't keep still, who are always clicking pens, tapping the desk, drumming, wiggling, tapping.


                    There. It's off my chest....

                      On a busy morning, 2 mins to 9 and there is a queue for the lift, the person who waits, gets in, pushes floor 1 and then stands at the back of the lift. First it is lazy, second the time it would take to use the stairs would be less than it took to wait and third it slows the rest of the lift riders down, especially because for you to get out from the back forces all those in front of you to get out and then back in again!!
                      Rule 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!
