minor things that make you fume

I’m exactly the same. I just like to get my head down and get on with things but my mental health was suffering so I had no option in the end.

That's my weakness, I can go the extra miles, do more hours and cover people's arses but I struggle to shout about it, it's just not me.

You'll have colleagues who'll switch off as soon as 5.00pm comes and will pipe up expecting praise because they went out of their way once, while they people who carry a project with hard work and dedication are unnoticed, as they don't make a fuss about it.

Same here, as soon as 5pm comes they’re out the door. I envy those people in a way and it’s probably the best way to be. There’s always other jobs.

People who screw screws in to the point where the head gets knackered.

Wrong sized pilot hole, or none at all.
If you must screw into stuff with no pilot hole use a squarehead drive not phillips, pozi drive or similar. That Vee shape just lends its self to push the drive bit out of the screw thus ripping it to 'k as the rotary resistance is greater than the pressure you can put on it to keep in.
Just sayin like.
Also, don't take this the wrong way...strictly in a diy situation obvs...but a bit of lubrication, plain old spit if you must, works wonders in a tight hole
 
Does anyone else know people who are alright with you one day, saying hello and stuff to them as they walk by, they respond and then another day they try to avoid talking to you or their body language is tepid. I find it a bit jarring sometimes.

Maybe they are having a off day, understandable as we all have them, it’s happened quite a lot in recent times, even a few close family members and friends have noticed it too. It can feel a little belittling on occasion.

Do you shower infrequently and therefore have days where you`re a bit wiffy ?
 

I have took my last 5 days holiday booked a lodge in the lakes we have took our 2 dogs.This morning I let the dogs out for a pee on the grass outside the lodge and one of them ran around the lodge next to ours, so I went after her and bent down to get hold of her and I heard a voice saying good morning it was a fella in the next lodge so as i am saying sorry for the dog I still had only seen his legs so as i straightened up thefella was standing there in kin Rs top I couldn't believe it.So I came in and told my Mrs she was laughing her head off I'm gutted.We had a bit of brekkie and drove in to ambleside I found a car park, I parked up and as I'm getting out of the car to get the dogs out the back another car pulls up in the next bay so I though I will let these people get out of their car before I get the dogs out.So who gets out the car but kin David Fairclough I could not believe it I had an instant flash back to analfield when he scored the winner, I just burst out laughing my Mrs thought I had lost the plot.
