I s'pose one of the things that gets on my tits is the fact that day in day out as part of my job I deal with people who don'/won't take responsibility for the situation they find themselves in.:beat They behave in a way that precipitates circmstances beyond their control, and then they complain, and blame everyone else but themselves for their predicament. I've come to realise it's a sort of blind spot they have, probably born of habit, because no matter how clearly you put the facts to them, it just aint their fault, no way, not in the slightest. Everything that happens in life is someone else's fault. I learnt a long time ago that it is pointless to pursue any discussion with them because their inability to assess the facts and reach a rational conclusion arises out of the fact that they are irrational, and it would be irrational of me to assume that I could get an irrational person to look at something rationally. They have excuses, they have convoluted and irrational reasoning, they muddy the waters, they ignore what is pertinent, they pass opinion on things about which they have little or no knolwdge, they claim expertise with one utterance and the clearly demonstrate a total lack of it with the next, and basically, they just obfuscate. Anything, as long as they don't have to take a step back and look at their actions and say, er, um, well yes perhaps I do bear some responsibility for the situation I find myself in. I think it was A.E. Van Vogt wjo dubbed this type of person, for whom the very concept of being wrong does not exist, as Mr Right. Of course, I could be completely wrong. but at least I have an awareness of that possibility, and without it, I'd be irrational as well..

I know the feeling, I get the same thing at the quarry up the road from me.

About a month ago I went up there to take the dogs for a walk and just caught the music van arriving to set things up. Phoned plod and told them if they got someone up there sharpish they could nip the whole thing in the bud.

Might as well not have bothered

$hit - spoke too soon Spotted the music wagon going up ther this evening, reported it to plod who went up took a quick look then promptly did a Foxtrot Oscar

When I was up there later the plod helicopter came over and did a couple of passes. Yea right a lot of good that did. The call sign of the chopper is November Whisky One but the plods call it Waste of Money One

An M5 driver, Pulled up at a petrol station, nudge GF "thats a brand new M5 look" Take the pump next to him. As I pick up the nozzle I notice somthing. "erm..excuse me; but your putting deisel in your car" the wonderfully curt response was "Fcuk off." 40 litres and a trip to the till later and the muppets engine starts and immediatly stalls driver gets out cursing. I hop back into GJ02 giving the doodah a quick wave on my way out. It was strangly satisfying to see the same M5 on a flat bed when I passed it on the motorway later. Cnut.

DIY electrics

Depends what you call DIY. I was standing in a primary school last week shaking my head at the results of "calling the professionals". Just out of interest it was the handywork of a national company with the initials BK.
