If you have read in a previous post I was going to put together a list of things that are annoying me or that have in the pass. So here goes. I will build the list over time.

• AA (back in 2002 when I had a little accident early in the morning they left me at the crash scene and roadside for 3 hours without even a call to say sorry we are delayed. I drove the car back after thinking I cant stay here anymore) Looking after the interests of its members as motorists has been at the heart of the AA since it was founded in 1905. taken from the AA. Apart form in 2002 when you left your member at the crash scene without any help.
• 3G – this list could go on, but lets just say Indian call center and systems that are always down. And a network and customer service which is just bad real bad.
• O2 they keep messing up with my contract 3 times they have messed with my bill or have done something to try and shaft me.
• T-Mobile – Seriously when you where younger t-mobile was cool when it use to be One2One those where the days when occasionally the network would crash and you would get free calls and text’s, but now they are just so annoying the service is crap and there customer service is just behind that of 3G
• Supermarkets :
  • Tesco – I think you have read the previous post, but it’s a toss between these guys and the AA and 3G who I detest the most, but until Saino’s steps up I will have to keep shopping here.
  • Sainsbury’s – not the retail side but the corporate side, thank you Sarah Squires cause of you I don’t shop in this place anymore.
  • Budgens - Who and what that’s all I have to say. Seriously who are they trying to fool and what are they trying to pull. They are more expensive than Waitrose and about the same quality as Asda. No offence to Asda, they are not on this list thou.
  • M&S – that Woman they have on the advert make me wan to go there and either buy everything on my CC or burn the place down after I turn fat. I like this spoof advert for it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TzupByLKCgA
• Microsoft I wouldn’t say hate but dislike, a few reasons that i cant go into as they are a client but they are on the list
• London Transport – Have you ever tired to get home after 12 in London. Not nice is it now, other countries in the word have great public services, but its seems that when I want to go home 77other people have the same idea and then I end up becoming the Garfield doll on the bus getting molested by someone.
• Egypt – Dam you! Had such an amazing holiday when I was there that now all I want to do is go back, but no I am stick at my desk. So yes Egypt you are on the list actually for that fact the following are on the list
  • Malaysia
  • New York
  • Spain
  • Jamaica
• American Express – the American gimps won’t give me the RED card, but they will try and sell me the platinum card with a stupid yearly fee. Why would if want that, give me what I ask for
• FRANCE – I hate that place. That’s it I just hate the place.
• HALFORD – Seriously the staff in that place are so inept that they couldn’t organise a piss up in a brewery. Anyway so I went to go get a bike and the guy was like we have no bikes at the moment we wont be able to give you one until next Friday. What the hell. Then I asked for the advice… what ever you do never ask for advice in Halfords seriously a one eye tramp that has just come out of the woods where he has lived his whole life with wolfs would give better advice than the staff in Halfords. Highly trained staff my ass. You can be highly trained if I know more about your stock than you do.
• London Metro (free paper) –
  Let me explain why, I love a good read on the way to work in the morning, but more and more I am starting to realise that the news in the Metro is becoming a bit liquidated, I think the writers are being obtuse on purpose as the Metro is full of advertorials and advertising with the hard hitting news gone in favour of glossy Mag’s stories such as the penguin that has its on blog (who cares).
  Not sure if you know how much a colour page advert in the Metro cost, well it cost over 22k – yeah that’s a lot. So you can see why they love to put adverts in the Metro. In favour of good news stories…..
