Typical young people have given me the s##ts ever since high school and continue to with their shallow carbon copy personalities you see and hear everywhere.
Their constant swearing when they talk and same ole same ole laughter for no good reason.
I have come up with the perfect acronym for typical young people CRUs -Common Replaceable Units.

I was bullied at school for being different and now I see people altering their bodies to look like mine??????
Their laughter etc makes me cringe, I can't understand why some people of age produce a diamond cutter It must be a manipulation thing.

Re: What gives you the S&#T's!?
So there is an upcoming Lego exhibit coming to town for the school holidays (found out via the local papers) and I thought it would be something myself and a couple of friends can go to. Sadly you need to purchase tickets to get entry, ugh fine... so I look at who to get the tickets from if I can go and it's through a certain hated events / ticket industry, the only two ways to get tickets is digitally and that wouldn't be a problem except they want to charge a $7.15 fee to SMS it to you or for you to print yourself.
Yes I'm going to have to pay $7.15 to receive a "digital ticket" that is probably less than 1MB and normally would cost almost near nothing to send, all in the name of convenience of course.
Don't believe me? Have a look for yourself

I can imagine what it feels like down there, I have cousins that live in Melbourne, I kind of wish we has this lockdown ending too so i can see my cousins in Melbourne again, but sadly as it goes, its the minority of people that wreck it for the majority

Re: What gives you the S&#T's!?
Transport INFO failing to advise commuters rail replacement was extended from Maitland to Newcastle Interchange. How strange is it that 3rd party applications with no ties to TNSW are better at informing commuters than the state government departments in charge of the matters are.
If it wasn't for one of my 3rd party applications, I wouldn't have known they'd extended trackwork beyond the Maitland line.

If you want to arrive earlier, you have to leave earlier. In the mean time accept this is part of the experience of driving in urban areas.
P$: not defending that driver, that will annoy anyone!

Re: What gives you the S&#T's!?
What's been giving me the irrits this week so far???
1. Work trying to "butter" me up to get me into a higher position within our department - they're trying to get me up to leading hand (which, by the way, I won't be accepting as I don't like change! Never been a change person......)
2. More freaking rain - as if our poor driveway isn't a minefield of ruts and depressions!
3. Freaking cars - if it has (insert naughty word here) or tyres, you gonna have problems!
4. The monumentally irritating roadworks at the Newell/Mitchell Highways intersection in Dubbo - they've been working on relocating the freaking utilities to replace the freaking roundabout at this intersection with not one but TWO FREAKING sets of FREAKING traffic lights! Combine both sets here with the set at Whylandra and East Streets and you have a freaking recipe for disaster!
That's about it so far - if I think of any more, I'll follow on in another post!

That's the last time I try to help passengers. Said their was another bus in 15 minutes, & she said "WHAT, I WAS TALKING TO MY PARTNER".

Re: What gives you the S&#T's!?
40kph? He did well. I have seen drivers in Adelaide do 25kph in 60 zones due to ridiculously loose timetables. The peak timetables in Adelaide are generally designed to give one minute per stop when they are in close proximity, with added time for intersections.Newcastle Flyer wrote: ↑Tue Sep 29, 2020 4:25 pm The bus driver on the 44 crawling along at around 40kmh holding up the traffic behind when the speed limit is 60kmh.
Weekend night timetables can be a little bit too tight. But it's not a bad thing at all. Trying having 40 minutes to get from R1 North Tce to the airport via Grenfell St, Glover Ave, Henley Beach Rd, South Rd, and SDB drive.
Also Adelaide's rail transport timetables do not vary in running times for all stoppers regardless of the time of day/week. Same on a Sun night as a Monday morning.
Edit: Re the above post, I had this habit of intervening when drivers were confused with helping passengers. But I tend to refrain from doing so now unless I really feel the need to. These misinterpretations can sometimes lead to things escalating.

Re: What gives you the S&#T's!?
Chicken Chef. I purchased a small bag of chips which were quite decent, but not outstanding.
I noticed that none of the staff were wearing gloves. I also noticed that they were touching the tips of the inside of the bags with their bare hands exactly where the chips were resting against. The customers were treated like lemmings.
Just like any takeaway shop that isn't appauling, I'd go back there again. But the service was very subpar.

Having to get rid of these buggers, nasty & hurt to touch! (wasn't touching them on purpose but it was as I was trying to remove them). These are the ground thistle weeds that have the sharp little spikes on their leaves.

* That a caller just rang up the Carter Edwards Show, and says that he hates the White man, then claims he's an aborigine. But then he said he lives in government housing. Um excuse me, if it wasn't for White man, he wouldn't be in housing commission.
As the truck driver said after him, he's still willing to take White mans money.
