whats made you annoyed / sad today

Driving into the city today, signs up for Offshore Europe coming up nxt week - that'll double my commute time :S
 
Fiat UK rang to say al get a 500L MPW test drive within a week, dealer rang to say it'll more likely be 3-4wks. Somehow the customer satisfaction survey I'm doing next week won't be so complimentary

This is the bit that really is puzzling.

Fiat are onto a winner just now with the 500 - as I've said before, they're ten a penny up here.

If only the dealers could nail the customer satisfaction thing.

It's because they're following the Italian* way :laugh:

e.g. I ask our Italian professors for samples/data from a large part of the project as per the agreement. They pass the request on to their subordinates who mess me about and refuse to answer emails until I threaten to withhold money. At the risk of not having the money to fund their effortless chic they eventually say it'll be with me in the next quarter with the excuse that the experiment was delayed because someone had the urge to look cool for an afternoon

*Other European countries are available and don't necessarily involve France
 
Work today ..... *groan* starting to feel burnt out as the last 10 weeks I think I have had about 13 days off

Agreed they a ten a penny down here too, not so much the 500L yet although seen the 500L Trekking on a demo drive earlier an it looks an improvement over the normal 500L

On the plus side, when we go see the 500L MPW were going next door to view the 5dr Range Rover Evoque. Think Mrs H is hiding a lotto win pmsl

Ah you've got to love and admire the Italian way. I spent 2 weeks living with an Italian family in my youth and it was amazing how laid back everything was. They drove a mk1 croma turbo :)

Why are you working when you've been away in Nigeria for the past month? That's a bit crap

Im the only one at home just now that can do a specific test, and when cornered by 2 lassies (workshop manager and project coordinator) I just cant say no lol

Was only for the one day and workshop manager quine plied me with drink all night.
 
Oh and my addition to the thread for today, after a playful squabble with one of my coworkers, she sprayed me with a heap of her perfume and hairspray... just as well my wife trusts me or that could have been an awkward explanation lol
 
Bastard fecking tractor drivers not pulling in on bendy country roads when they could do. Nearly 5 miles I was stuck behind the idiot doing 30 miles an hour and to make matters worse the only time where I could have possibly gotten past he pulled into the middle of the road. No excuse for that sort of behaviour as he was simply being an arse including speeding through a small village with a 20 mph speed limit (I didn't for the record)
