Random occurences that send me into orbit instantly (number 342)

[andy-hughes]

When you answer your phone and it's a wrong number. They say 'Sorry' (ideally!) and you say it's OK, and hang up.

Then your phone rings again, there is a few seconds pause while the person at the other end realises that they have got the same wrong number, and they hang up WIITHOUT SAYING ANYTHING!!!

I could seriously do some damage when that happens - what's wrong with a simple apology?

I'm off for a lie-down, but feel free to add your own instances chill-meltdown-in-ten-seconds occurences ...

Pre-recorded tele-sales messages....guaranteed to send me into meltdown.They always manage to come at meal times and as they are pre-recorded I don't get to tell them to go away (in less polite terms usually).

One of my docs has a very annoying habit of eating food, chewing loudly and talking with his mouth full while standing right behind me... He's a really nice bloke and so helpful but I could quite cheerfully push him of the window when he does this. Turns my stomach.
