To be fair, I'd be crying my eyes out too if I had to sit beside a grown man who was soilng himself .

Re: What do you want to vent about today?
Deegee - to be honest mate it never occurred to me to take his reg. At first he was a speeder and a stupid impatient driver which we all see from time to time even if it is rare but that one act of him slamming his breaks on I think all rationality went out of me after seeing that and even my missus commented on how quickly he drove away from the incident. Don't think anyone expected it to escalate over a silly thing

Re: What do you want to vent about today?
At least no one was hurt, this time. But it sounds like he could benefit from someone having a word.
Shame you don't have a dashcam Rossgo...
Fwiw I've caught quite a lot of "interesting" footage on mine.

Re: What do you want to vent about today?
Totally agree StMarks. Sure you have caught a fair bit, it's a real shame we live in that world of people wanting revenge over the littlest of things, I can't remember who posted it on here but someone said they wonder when we will all be required to have dashcam in our vehicles but I can see it coming soon with this sort of crap going on

I think that more & more, Police will also use the info. they can get from a vehicle's ECU, occupant cellphones, etc....BUT, for accidents, it's not going to happen just for run-of-the-mill numbnut drivers, there's too many of them.

Tailgaters at junctions.
I'm on a main road, there's a car in the other lane, waiting to turn right. I slow and flash my lights so he can turn. I've timed the run so I don't have to slow too much.
As he turns the woman in the car behind decides to ride up his arse and turn at the same time. I have to slam on my brakes, just stopping at her rear wheel.

Totally agree - just taking advantage Just makes you not want to bother flashing anyone which is a shame.Kwacky wrote:Tailgaters at junctions.

New people on the block
How can some people have that many problems that they need to scream, shout and swear at eachother and make sure everyone else can hear them. It's great to see they have a baby boy living in a loving family block of flats. ALL F'ING WEEKEND AND WEEK
- pretty much sums up their relationship!!

Mate its not just you, working in a mortgage brokers the amount of issues we have with solicitors is a joke, they seem to leave everything to the last second and then it causes issues.Cav wrote:Seller's solicitors - We're in the 14th week of moving I think, still not got anything resembling a date from their end!
I would like to vent about bloody traffic in the SE, taken me 2 hours to do my half hour commute today!, had to drop little one at nusery so started the journey by car, after barely getting 5 mins from my front door in the car after dropping him off I gave up, turned around and went and got the bike, was still crap, that type of gridlock where its even hard to get through on the bike!
Remember: If in Doubt use Full Throttle, It may not make the situation any better, But it will end the suspense...

Re: What do you want to vent about today?
With you on that one CT, I cover the SE as part of my area for work, travelling in horribly heavy traffic is soul destroying, fortunately I live in a quiet part of it, but driving for work is the one part of the job I dislike most.Cavetroll87 wrote:I would like to vent about bloody traffic in the SE, taken me 2 hours to do my half hour commute today!, had to drop little one at nusery so started the journey by car, after barely getting 5 mins from my front door in the car after dropping him off I gave up, turned around and went and got the bike, was still crap, that type of gridlock where its even hard to get through on the bike!

Dumb fecks on duel carriage ways that nearly change lanes right in front of you and then swerve back at the last second, only then to change their mind and nearly knock you of anyway.

Re: What do you want to vent about today?
Some jobs worth idiot in a computer/ gaming shop.
Went to sell my old phone. They wanted to do a diagnostic test before accepting the phone so I said no problem do what ever you need and I'll go and get a coffee and come back.
When I came back I asked did it all go ok and got the answer yes. She then starts to say the phone is too hot and this where the fun starts.
Long story short she does 3 factory resets which each time wants to install 301 apps. The phone does this repeatedly for 30 minutes.
I told her your making it hot as your just constantly demanding the processor work hard and pulling alot of current from the battery.
I ask did she test the battery on the diagnostic test she had performed earlier and got the answer yes and it's fine. I ask what's the problem then ? You have functioned tested the battery and it's past and the battery is the only thing that can generate the heat.
I asked what the temperature of the phone was and she said how do I know I m just holding it. Which I replied too, Yes exactly not a very scientific test is it. You don't know what temperature the phones actually at and have no data to say what's acceptable and what isn't.
I explained the only think generating heat is the battery and that's because she is constantly putting the processor under high load.
Could I get common sense into this retards skull could I balls. Only when I said don't buy it then give it me back and I will sell it elsewhere, does the manager finally step in and agree with me and tell the jobs worth to just give me my money and shut up.
What a cock end who wasted an hour of my day holding a phone in her hand and declaring it too hot when doing 30 minutes of unnessecary factory resetting which is what is making it hot.
