    Yes. I don't suffer fools/idiots to well and then they call me grumpy. Where I work this is a daily occurrance.

    After major surgery 10 years ago I made a conscious decision that I would no longer suffer fools. I do not feel guilty about it - to hell with them

    Why do people post such trivial bloody threads! I've now wasted at least a minute of the finite time I have remaining. Geeze!

    Cheers

    I had a job to do at midnight last night & I was driving home after 1 am listening to Tony Delroy on the ABC.

    He had a talk-back session going on the economy... strewth!!!!
    The weirdos that ring up at that hour of the morning are something else.

    It the encyclopedia under Grumpy Old there should be a reference to that segment.

    If you find a post of mine that is missing a pic that you'd like to see, let me know & I'll see if I can find a copy.

    I don't suffer ... only those with whom I come in contact.

    My treatment is shed-time.

    I moved from grumpy to full blown Curmudgeon. I feel much better now.

    I just typed out another rant, but I'm not posting it. If I get started I might be still typing tomorrow morning...
