WTF is it with lazy/stupid people? Current clientco is like the software house where I worked as a permie back in the day. Site has a huge free car park but on some days it's filled to capacity. However, at both places I have often seen people abandoning their cars in places that aren't proper spaces (and are supposed to get them towed or clamped) at a time when there are still hundreds of spaces available. I am stunned that people can be so lazy. It's no wonder so many Southerners are always whining about getting clamped if this is the best they can manage.

That's a rather fibble event at being Wilmslow - it requires some talent you know to be him, plus you can't be Wilmslow unless you allow someone to piss on your shoes! -

I preferred version 1!Comment

Lots of crazy things happen at the gym. I've already discussed people driving there to use the bike and running machines, and builders using the free-weights. Continuing on the theme of free weights, people often use them to do lots of strenuous exercises until they have gone blue in the face, but afterwards they cannot be arsed to put the weights back in their proper place. The lazy hard working gits.Comment
