Can't decide if this is the start of a joke or how you should start the rest of your weekend...

I'm not a comedy expert but which of these is funnier?

A man walks into a bar and says "Ow, who put that there?"

A man walks into a bar and says "Ow!" because it was an iron bar.

I have to admit I do feel just a lil bit sorry for Gappy McGapface, though.

It is annoying when you make an effort to go and do something super-early cos it gets too busy with Joe Public later and you have Important Other Things To Do ... then suddenly all the peeps arrive right in front of you.

It's a right pain in the tits.

I think I got the English version of the Klumps as my first passengers today. Rolling Eyes

Sweet Jesus, the mother did my head in.
So I chatted with the son a little bit and left her to stew in the back.
Gave him the glad eye as he got out the car. Just to cheer him up a bit Laughing

A hot and grumpy hot polar bear and a husky walk into a bar, barman startled by the uncommon pairing calmy asks what they'll have to drink.

Husky replies "100 kilos of ice, fast as you can."

Barman says "That's going to take while, the ice machine is not that quick".

Polar bear snaps "Just fucking do it or I'm going to glacier."

When you've got some roofers round at yours doing their thing, and one knocks on the door and asks if he can use your toilet, and then he traipses through your house without taking off his boots, and then takes a dump in your bathroom and you find out later he hasn't even't even flushed it?!

I mean - really?

Replacing a headlight bulb is not easy on my car, you need baby hands or half a day to disassemble half of the front end. Thanks Vauxhall for making is so simple!

Good job its much lighter out now otherwise I would have to be one of those wankers driving with a car that winks at you at night.

Went for a little blast but the good part of the ride didn't record, it just skipped part 2.

Also my rear tyre has worn out and the one I ordered a month ago hasn't arrived.

Just pissed off about the Royal Mail staff and their shrug the shoulders attitude because they are protected by the
union. Ordered a parcel from the states, a long sleeve tee shirt. I knew there would be customs charges and was happy
to pay whatever levy HMRC added to the price. Yesterday I get the Royal Mail 'we can't deliver your item because there is
a charge' card. This is after next door knocked and gave it to me because those morons even managed to deliver that
to the wrong house.

My charges are as follows.

Import Duty. £0.00
Excise Duty. £0.00
VAT £3.13
(and fair enough I suppose even though the money for the actual item ended up going into the US economy. )

Royal Mail International Handling Fee £8.00

So £8 to put it on a shelf for a day then.Brick Wall No wonder they are losing business to the courier firms.
I really don't mind paying the VAT, but £8 so the obese woman in the kiosk can act like some kind of gatekeeper
to me obtaining my lawful property. I had to smoke a bunch of weed before I went down there this morning or
I'd have gone ballistic. I hate that fat cow anyway, she's been there years, unionised to the core, moves so slowly
you might assume she's crapped herself and is trying not to spread it around by walking too quickly. Last time
I had words with her, one of their delivery professionals left an anniversary gift for the wife in a puddle outside
my front door, we were away because anniversary and rather than card us and take it back to the depot.
It was dropped on the floor outside, then it rained for two days. I properly kicked off about that, got some compo
in the end, but I went down there fuming. Fatty McJabba ran away and hit and her manager came out to calm me down.

If my neighbour had thrown the card away, I'd have never even known the parcel was sitting there in the first place.
Top dollar for an incompetent, entitled, shower of shit. Good work Royal Mail. I shall redouble my efforts to seek
alternative methods when I need to ship something.

A few days ago amazon informed me that they had refunded a customer from my account due to "non delivery", on checking the tracking - the item was a tracked 48 no sig large letter so able to go through any letter box (a nintendo switch game) the tracking stated "last update 10th April (6 days before) we aim to try and deliver this today". I phone business customer services at 4pm they can't see anything different so phone through the delivery office "theres only the manager their everyone else has gone and he doesn't know whats happened - we will get the item returned to you rts - you should get it monday" (I had asked for the item back as I am now out of pocket for £43.20p. Monday nothing, Today postman comes with nothing so I phone them again - "the item was delivered on 20th April to the customer" F''CKING BRILLIANT! I have to wait 48 hours for gps proof the item has been delivered and then try my luck with the customer to see if he will pay me directly or return it, failing that I have to lose it because any attempts at claims with these people are met with more hurdles than the grand national. Annoyed!

When I arrrived at my shop this morning a homeless person and their helper (always a youth on a mtb who does the running for booze etc) were trying to force entry to the rear yard of a neighbouring shop.

I have to walk past the security office so was going to knock on but as I walked toward it the security guards and pcso were going after them.

I had a few months ago written to the local Tory mp over a growing issue of rough sleepers because Stoke council is trying to disperse them from Hanley into other areas by issueing fixed penaltys and confiscation of tents etc, asking him if he was prepared to look at improving night shelter access as there is non, only a soup kitchen a couple of times a week which is attracting anti-social behaviour and got told "I support the PM's attitude toward the homeless" In less words "f@ck yourself off".

So then. Resignation day +1.

Customer complains about a unit in for repair. I chase for the 5th time. Person I chase lies over email and says he told me we are still waiting for parts, when in fact he told me the repair was happening last week. Turns out we are waiting for parts, but I as a fool believed what I was told and told the customer that the repair was underway. Customer then tries to escalate to our contracts admin and the product manager. The contracts admin replies giving him my name and email address and saying that I'm in charge of their support. Customer then thanks contracts admin for completing the circle.

You simply can't make it up. And No, I don't currently have a job to go to, and I think I'm OK with it.

I probably best not say what the repair is for lest I get identified on the innarnetts... It's technical hardware related to video. Very dry stuff.
