I'm just gatvol because I am turning out to be just like my mom on holidays. Doing washing, the dish washer, cleaning the bath... All I wanted to wash is my car and get drunk. Well at least I do the later.

This is perhaps going to sound weird but would you like to marry me? Or at the least be best friends? It will be the type of relationship that people will strive to!!!

Edit: I also enjoy craft beer and braaing!

I was irritated when I saw oil spots all around the stove after someone fried burger patties. However after cleaning the kitchen I cleaned the stove too. It looked great.

Then I walk past again after doing the laundry to see this.

It's taken years and threats but I eventually band my contracted house engineer to stop using abrasive cleaning materials/chemicals to clean pots, pans, stove, oven etc.

The damage in the learning curve is immense

Haha! I have said countless times if I had to marry a man it would be. Such a domesticated wuss, I'll never have to clean again.
 
Travelling. The actual travel part as in getting there & back, not the being somewhere new part.

People who threaten you, especially at work. Is it just me or does this happen to others as well, and what do you do?

Not really. Well nothing beyond the usually "do badly and you get a bad performance review"...which is well kinda obvious.

Guess it depends on corporate culture, but I doubt you'd get very far threatening anyone @ my employer. It's expected that everyone behaves...threats do not count as "behaving"...so if you escalate it high enough the powers that be will crush whoever is misbehaving.
 
^You do seem to travel quite a bit. I can think it may get tedious after a while. But the experiences will overpower the minor niggles when you look back at this day in 10 or 20 years from now.

I actually forgot what I was going to moan about. Got sidetracked. Anyway :)
 
People touching my monitors when pointing to something. FFS I hate those smudges showing on a dark screen.

This, I've managed to keep my monitors smudge free, you come along and smudge it up again. Now I've got to clean it all up.

Exactly! No one but me will touch these monitors and if I do it is only to clean them.

The other minor irritation is self inflicted - I reformatted my workstation because I want Secure Boot (Fast Boot) enabled. Went for the creators edition of Windows 10 Enterprise and firstly the stupid MS ISO to USB tool does not create UEFI bootable USB disks, thankfully Rufus does. Had to hunt down someone from IT support to add me to the domain, now the painful task of reinstalling everything...
 
Talking on a phone. Hate it. What's wrong with email or face to face? But you get those people who insist on always phoning.
