I ended up finding a number for the accessibility line, they have taken a manual order & will be posting the tickets out, costs more of course but not a great deal, I wonder how many sales they lose by not having the option visible?

The cynic in me wonders if the company think it's worth it for the extra they sneak on for phone calls and postage "handling" charges.

- People sat in their cars with their engines running for no good reason.
- People who stop for a cup of tea and a picnic at roundabouts when their entry is clear.
- People who fail to leave a reasonable stopping distance between them and the vehicle infront, and hit the brakes every time the driver infront farts.
- Utterly detached boomers in the local shop blocking an entire isle as they vacuously stare into space with zero situational awareness.
- People who lack basic manners / consideration for others in any situation.

We have a guy in his Audi who comes up our road everyday to pick his child up, he gets there 15 minutes early & then sits there with the engine running, he's already there as I walk past him as I go get my granddaughter whose school is 3/4 mile away

People who have high flying jobs patroninise me by saying I'd love to go out for a walk at lunch but I'm just to busy. 😡
Too busy working towards that stroke at 55... let them crack on with it tbh.

Do the world a favour and put a brick through his window (or at least have a quiet, respectful word if you're game) - vacuous twat :angry:

For what, as far as I know he's doing nothing illegal, immoral yes, illegal no.
Not sure where the law goes on this one, but I know the estabishement absolutely don't like this sort of behaviour.. although I'm not sure on what level it's officially discouraged.

The engine needs to be on to keep the aircon going

Thought that was obvious!

i.e. blaming their lack of ability to organise their life along reasonable lines on the job
When in reality if they have to work through lunch EVERY day then they are either not working efficiently - or they are overloaded and they should have sorted it out

either way - their fault
 
Politicians who make stupid comments like if you're struggling to out and get a better paying job. That's a very white collar, middle class, privileged comment.

I work with people who simply have no opportunity to get a better paying job. Coming from sink estates they often didn't get an education, society failure not theirs. They live in a area where there's simply not many jobs for unskilled, uneducated workers that pay more. Certainly not enough more not to struggle in this economic climate. Plus they can't travel as they simply don't drive and the public transport is too expensive for them to use to travel to the jobs they could get that might just pay a little bit more.

I think those ignorant MPs simply haven't the experience to know better and the common sense to stop making such pig ignorant comments like that. Not fit to serve in the house of commons IMHO.
