I use them as my favourite restaurant only does delivery through them and when I was sick, I used them for shopping. They keep pretending that the front door to the building doesn't work, or they can’t find the building, or they’ll go to the car park around the back where you can’t get in (even though I put that in the delivery notes). As I work from home I end up taking in packages for my neighbours and letting the postman, window cleaner etc into the building - today alone I buzzed in 3 people, it’s always strangely fine for everyone else. So I always have to go downstairs and get it myself. I don’t really mind that so much as them basically lying and taking the piss, especially since they charge enough to deliver in the first place. I don't use Deliveroo. There's the whole dodginess of the gig economy but mainly because they employ wankers who cycle on the pavement 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 c***s on the nightshift who suddenly become interested in doing a job they've known about all night, at 4am, when said job involves me, who was hitherto melting into the sweet embrace of sleep. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

microdave Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 18 hours ago, 'WellDel said: Nah, think that ones a bit of a myth. I used to drive class2 hgv's and, in the job I was in, ordinarily had more than plenty time during my shift to complete my drops. Most trucks are limited at 56mph, so if I was on the motorway sitting behind one doing 53-54 I'd just happily tawdle along behind it. A high proportion though are chasing time and don't give a single fcuk who they hold up to get themselves that tiny bit further ahead that the extra 2mph takes them, which of course is absolutely minimal and hardly worth it for their own blood pressure and that of the drivers of the 50 cars queued up behind them. In short, they couldn't care less about their employer's fuel bill and a lot of lorry drivers are, in fact, simply c***s (of the prostitute murdering variety). But otherwise alright? 18 hours ago, Melanius Mullarkay said: Who the f**k checks their balance at an ATM in age of internet banking?

MEADOWXI Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 On golf fans this is truly the season of the dickhead fans. As much as I like watching just about all sport this is the season of, The tennis fan wanting to be the last to shout some inane support, or worse something apparently witty before a serve. The golf fan being the first to shout similar after the a drive has been taken. Both offences should be punishable with beating, and seeing as Wimbledon has all those service personnel about surely they are equipped to do it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never understood how checking in on line actually works. Surely checking in at the desk is proof that you're physically in the airport and ready to board your flight. Checking in on line, you could be anywhere and about to run into horrendous traffic jams so you're still miles away when your flight is due to leave. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiegoDiego Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Check In times always close at the original time do they not?So if you get a message in the morning saying your flight's delayed by ten hours you're supposed to get to the airport twelve hours before departure? Why close check in when the outgoing aircraft isn't even in the country yet? What's the point in on line check in if they make you do it again at the airport? Petty things, my friend. In related news, Luton's a shitehole, I want to go home. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume the desk rota / staffing is planned in advance, and there is little flexibility. When you check in online you don't need to do it again at the airport - you only have to go to bag drop if you have hold luggage. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume the desk rota / staffing is planned in advance, and there is little flexibility.Perhaps I've just been lucky and have only had flights delayed once I'm already through security. It's not something I recall other people talking about.It really wasn't an issue in the end, one of the general airport staff did it without any fuss, just thought it weird you can arrive at the airport over two hours before your flight departs and check in is closed. When you check in online you don't need to do it again at the airport - you only have to go to bag drop if you have hold luggage.That's not the case at all airports. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Checking in on line, you could be anywhere and about to run into horrendous traffic jams so you're still miles away when your flight is due to leave. You get your boarding card scanned usually before you go through security so it's much the same as queuing up at a desk. Maybe the airport @DiegoDiego was at was short staffed so everyone had to do it at check in, or they didn't have enough scanning equipment.
