The trivial complaints thread

That really sucks, Taffeta! I'm sorry

Someone is spoofing my number.  Again.  The theory behind telemarketers spoofing numbers is that people won't answer the telemarketer's number so they pick a phone number at random to use so that people will be more likely to answer.  Quite frankly, if I wanted to speak to a telemarketer, I would call them myself.  The fact that they are being dishonest means that I wouldn't do business with them even if I did happen to answer the number they were calling from.  I think that telemarketers who spoof private numbers should be shut down permanently because it is a form of identity theft and if I knew who it was that was spoofing my number, I would sue them.

This and robo calls are really becoming a sort of crisis, aren't they? It's never been this bad.

There was one number that called me 12 times in one day of a recording that said something about an online order being shipped and to please call back. I knew it was a scam of some kind and never call back. I reported the number to the Do Not Call list but it didn't take effect until after I got that same call a dozen times.

I seem to get calls every single day and late at night too! It's crazy.

When you ask direct questions -- and the person responds and yet ignores the question.

bonus points when doctors do it.

Still hating my country. Sigh.

I'm on holiday tomorrow and I can't find part of my PSP charger I knew I should of checked the other day rather than last minute, I could of then ordered one. I don't know where on earth it's gone, I'll have to take a look downstairs encase it's been misplaced in the cupboard, I'm so mad

I was at the store today and a lady sat down on a bench. A few minutes later when I happened to glance that way I saw the lady had opened a can of green beans in the store (she had a basket so I assume she had already paid for them) and was eating them straight out of the can.

I have seen people do that but eating stuff actually IN THE QUEUE for the till.

And our newsagents/post office had to put up a sign telling people to pay for envelopes etc before using them to post stuff...

I hurt my knuckles while air drumming to "In the air tonight"

I swear that the courier driver from UPS didn't bother to knock at the door this morning, just left the card. It's my sister's parcel, but the place where it was left to collect is not on a bus route so Dad had to take the car out to go get it...

Then I somehow missed both Amazon's courier and the post as well.

Three strikes and all out today. Sigh.

Haha, that happens to me all the time. When I sing along to songs and start to get expressive, I either hurt myself or break a plate/mug/bowl... Someone is probably trying to hint that I need to stop singing.

To the people that film presentations and then upload them to websites for those who were not able to attend to watch later: Please make your video appealing to the audience who is watching water. I tried to watch one today and half the time the camera was on the presenter who was looking through her notes/not at the camera or a on a video that made all the real life people in it look purple.

Yahoo mail is playing up. I don’t know if my emails are going through to people.

If you emailed me back, I didn't get it
