Cable Forum - Moans and Pet Hates

Ridiculous plastic speed humps just installed at my local supermarket car park have knackered the back/centre section of my exhaust. I'll be going there later with the digital calliper gauge to measure them so a claim might well be coming their way.

Went for an interview for a work placement kind of thing through the Jobcentre, bloke said he would call the woman in charge of it with a start date for us. This was supposed to be 2 weeks ago (the phone call anyway), with the provisional start for this morning. Apparently, when chased by Jobcentre they hadn't decided on how many of the 9 interviewees they want to train and when they want the training to start for those successful ones.

And this again. 3 calls today not returned. Absolutely outrageous. Will be making my feelings clear on Thursday when I sign on.

It's funny, if you had behaved like this, you'd be sanctioned. I hope you get things sorted.

My moan, Steve Wright in the afternoon. I like Radio 2 but my god he is insufferable.

Liked him when he did TOTP 2 but cannot listen on the radio either. Yes, I agree if it was me I would be sanctioned immediately.

The computer throwing a wobbly this morning and starting with a temporary profile. Ugh! The whole thing looks like <insert suitable word of disgust> And all the mail has vanished as well.:mad:

Instead of neat and tidy it's gone all Fisher Price and clunky. At least the registry hacks are still in place to tame the worst excesses.

Fiddled about and seem to have fixed it. I think I'll take a specific backup copy of my profile including all the hidden stuff to a separate drive in case it does it again. System restore points are active but I'd like to be selective.

We all agree here at my place of work with that. Why does he all ways over talk the music, cutting it short. Why does he call it the big show as well.

My moan is I have a score on the back of my neck that is now really sore. It seems to be taking ages to heal mainly due to the fact my hairbrush keeps hitting it every time I brush my hair.

My moan, is the wing mirror glass fell off the car smashing, then 20mins later I had a blow out from a tyre! Have been told it wasn't from the glass as the tyre was worn right down on the centre edge leaving no rubber! So now £162 lighter in pocket and also need to get the other tyre done as that is the same!!!

Very important, get your suspension and steering checked out. Tyre wear like that is symptomatic of severe misalignment. Usual culprits are lower ball joints and/or track rod ends.

A check of suspension geometry can usually be done at the tyre centre with their laser stuff.

Mum phoned up earlier and she told me she fell down part of the stairs yesterday but apart from a few bruises thankfully she seems alright apart from being very shaken.

Hope she's ok - sounds like she's got off lightly.
