Stressssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

:Brick::Brick::Brick::Brick::Brick::Brick::Brick:, Am I angry? Is it stress or just :piss2:ed off?

I am not a doctor, so I don't know what stress is - nor do i have it - but I know what being angry is about.

Do others get wound up about this and that, and does it takes a little time to come back down??

What caused this, you may ask?

Yesterday, a driver took out a van and it came back damaged. He did not do it, it was like that before he left. This was around 5.30 pm - our busiest time of the day - so lots of others things to sort out. Who had the vehicle the day before? No one! Before that? "Did you do this?" "NO".

We checked everything we could but got nowhere. Right, "better call the boss after checking everything", I thought. Well his response, "did you check the CTV on how it went out that morning?" THERE YOU GO, THE ONE THING I DID NOT CHECK,

Our new CTV is crap, it rewinds x 16 on 16 cameras soooooooooooooooo slowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww,
Another day that ends crap!

This is where timed and dated photos are so handy.

I took a lot before accepting the keys for the hire van last week....and of the house I've just moved out of.

If you hold a glass of water at arm's length, for the first 5 or 10 minutes it's ok, you can manage. After half an hour your arm begins to ache and you want to put it down. After an hour it becomes really unmanageable. That gives you an idea of stress. If you hand the glass to someone else to hold, then you share the stress. So in your situation, it's better to share it with someone before the stress takes effect. Poor EMS, maybe you should have shared it sooner!

Someone got right up my nose yesterday too. I was waiting to fill up at a busy petrol station and there was this woman who had filled up and paid. There was a queue waiting to use the pumps but she went across the forecourt to speak to someone. Was it a quick hello? No. They started hugging and engaging in conversation which must have lasted a good few minutes and no doubt would have lasted much longer if I hadn't blasted my horn :Brick:. They soon scarpered.

I was tired as hell one day driving home from work..A 24 hour (ghoster shift) once and I pulled into a Petrol station in Hendon about half way home..
Got out the car..Pissed off etc etc and this young couple approached me..
Really nice they were.
They were very politely and nervously asking me too look under their car bonnet..
I did mention that Although I was happy to look,that I was no mechanic and probably as dumb as they were.
The young man said "Please mate,just tell me where I should put the water"?
I pointed,tiredly and slightly impatiently at his radiator..
He frowned and showed me where he had put the water... IN THE ENGINE!!!
My tiredness and work stress left me at that point and looking at him and his girls helpless faces I just fell on my knees and went into an uncontrollable fit of laughter!!:icon_lol:
After I got up,I explained where he should have put the coolant and advised him not to attempt to start the car until he called the AA.
I got in my car and laughed and laughed all the way home!! I was in fits..
The Mrs thought I was up to something,as I was laughing still as I walked through the front door!
I can still see his face now after I told him!!!:icon_lol:

He shouldn't be driving if he doesn't know where to put the oil. I'd imagine he would have got away with any serious damage to it if he didn't start the engine and drained the sump.

I once heard of someone pouring oil into the dipstick hole - but at least they got the correct liquid.
