FROM supermarket self-service tills, to getting stuck behind a tall person at the cinema, a new survey reveals our top 20 bugbears.
The poll of 1,000 Brits was run by Bovril and here is the list of woe, with what percentage of us named each gripe . . .
1. Waking up and it being dark outside (55%)
2. PPI calls (47%)
3. Leaving something important at home (44%)
4. Trying to avoid someone you know in the supermarket (43%)
5. Queuing in traffic (39%)
6. Supermarket self-service tills (39%)
7. Talking about the weather (38%)
8. Holding the door open for one too many people (35%)
9. Running out of mobile phone battery (34%)
10. Remembering whether it’s bin day or recycling day (33%)
11. Over-apologising (32%)
12. Getting stuck behind a tall person at the cinema or theatre (31%)
13. Getting caught in the rain without an umbrella (31%)
14. Making a cup of tea and forgetting about it (29%)
15. Forgetting to have a pound coin handy for the supermarket shopping trolley (29%)
16. Being ignored by the barman (25%)
17. Receiving a present you already have (25%)
18. Being served a cold or incorrect meal in a restaurant (25%)
19. Getting a bad haircut (25%)
20. Being bombarded with social media notifications (23%)

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
If those are things people moan about then they should count themselves lucky.
I'm finding it quite hard to moan these days in the grand scheme of things. Saying that being this way changes the way you are and how you put up with others.

I got through to them at 8 this morning, after the obligatory 6 minutes of robot talk and "information". Appointment at 2 today, it will feel like climbing the gallows as our lives are going to change for the worse after today.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
I need to leave my job,.
The other week a guy at work in the Wheel bay (we are talking C-130 wheels here about 4-5ft high) had a second heart attack, but want to come back to work.
A guy in the electrical department is on a ventilator with suspected pneumonia.
a 3rd guy is in Moorfield Eye Hospital, and unlikely to be back for a few weeks.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
Just found out that a old friend of mine has just had a heart attack which has come as a bit of a shock as he always looked so fit and well to me.
