The way cashier's need to call a manager to do almost anything beyond ringing up items.

ODT (officeorifice deployment tool) downloading up to 2.4Gb's of data (for offline deployment of iffice365) then deleting the data and starting over.

May have been mentioned before, but incompetent bank officials who become aggressive when you point out their failings

My neighbour (83) was told by ABSA that no more EFTs, she must use Internet banking

I registered her on-line to find the payment limit set to R0. Phone call said a bank visit needed. 45 mins in front of this cadre who kept asking his colleague what to do. He brushed aside the printed sheet I gave him

After 30 mins of this, I asked him if it was his first day at work. He glared at me, got up and walked off in a huff. A lady took over and said it was all done

Get home to find payment limit still set to R0. I called bank and really gave it stick

The bank's excuse - she did not specify the limit. Yet on the printed sheet I took along (she is 95% deaf and cannot lip read very well), I mentioned a R10k payment limit

Another bank visit required

Seems archaic making them visit a branch. How is this not all doable online?

Button animations running both when you have or have not pressed the button correctly or inside its activation border

So it looks like you pressed it, but nooooooo it does fsckall.

Widows and Android does this, Android especially with the end call buttons in my case.

Add to that borderless windows in Windows.

Hard to tell where a window starts/ends

Whose daft manure-rich idea was it anyway?
