Out of our workforce of 6, 4 people were off today for various reasons, leaving me to sort out everyone else's stuff when I can't afford to leave my stuff any longer. Proper ball ache.

My desk is right next to a door which leads outside which every blert seems incapable of closing. 10 times in the last 20 minutes I've closed it. It's quite hard to work when the door keeps tw@ing against my desk and I've got to listen to the sound of drills/circular saws constantly.

Bells.

Ha ha - we have some blokes moving a load of stuff from the basement and rather than lift it they have apparently employed the throw it around technique. And if they do lift things it is whilst making the loudest possible grunts and groans!

People who don't put their frigging free weights back on the racks. i.e. 99% of the people that go to my gym.

People who drop their weights from head/chest height. You look so cool brah.

People who wear 'snapback' caps in the gym. It's not sunny in here you meff.

People who don't use sweat towels in the gym and leak all over the equipment.

People who sprint around the indoor running track. You look utterly ridiculous.

People who take benches/dumbbells to the other end of the gym and leave them there.

Happens in my gym all the time, i always put my equipment back, also clean equipment and even if a bench looks available i still ask nearby members if i can use it, just a decency thing.

Further to your fume points, i hate when somebody comes over to ask if they can join in on your machine - magnified by the fact they change the bloody weight on each set ! Anybody that goes the gym sittting at equipment on their phone for anything longer than a 'quick call'.

Agreed on all of these.

When a group of 2 or 3 people turn up and ask if they can 'jump in' I feel like telling them they can jump off a cliff. I'm doing 1 minute rests between sets for a reason, not 5 minutes.

One day, I might call their bluff and say I need help, just to see how they react.

People come and do it for you.

No phones in the gym at all, thanks.

That makes me rage. Cyclists who don't obey normal road rules for whatever reason do my nut in too. They ride on a combination of the road and pavement, whichever is free, not giving an F about anyone else. Nearly got ran over by one once because as he jumped a red light, then shouted at me as if it was my fault. I felt like chasing the bell end and throwing my umbrella in his spokes. Unfortunately I didn't have an umbrella on me.

Those horrible snides who ride pedal bikes with cameras fitted, who then confront the driver if they feel he was too close to them. Once episode showed a van next to them, the guy leans over a smacks the van, then complains to the driver he was too close, the minor fume was the fact the guy went out of his way to lean across to smack the vehicle ?

1) Dont hit the car - criminal damage (minor fume)
2) Dont then lecture the driver given the fact YOU have just commited the crime :rant:

(major fume)

People on Facebook/Twitter who now have to make a collage of pictures when it is their friend's birthday of all the times they have spent together.

Naturally if they have been on holiday this requires another collage of pictures with a caption.

No one is arsed about your life as much as you think they are.
