rodders0223 Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 There is this person in my team, now we are semi working remotely, is fully capable of working independently. Barely hear a peep out of them most days. The days when we are in the office together, every 5 minutes, will ask a question. A question they fully no the answer to, or who to contact in the business to get the answer, or that they know how to work out - or the actual answer they hold in the first place. Why are you asking me questions every 5 minutes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that that was pissing me off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you’ll realise the same car has overtaken you 3 times over the course of twenty minutes. This really fascinates me. Doing a constant speed and noticing someone overtake you, pull in ahead, slow down, you overtake them, and then they repeat the whole thing No idea what goes through their heads 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They liked us to travel in convoy so we’d follow them in the car. The FIL speed would be all over the place for no apparent reason. Gradually speeding up 70, 75, 80, 85… then slowing all the way down to 65-60 for no apparent reason either. I told them we’d just meet them there as it used to really annoy me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a mate I used to travel to Sunday League games and the occasional villa game with. Top bloke, but he used to be constantly on and off the accelerator. Foot down, release, foot down, release, foot down, release. Nothing extreme, he wasn't gunning it, just going up a couple of miles per hour and then back down again. If he did it once you'd barely notice but it was over and over again He probably didn't even know he was doing it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if it's something that we all do without realising it? Because I've noticed it when following someone in convoy - but I've also been accused of doing the same thing when I was the lead car. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wainy316 Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 (edited) I often feel very little difference between 60 - 80 mph when cruising on the motorway if I haven't looked at the speedometer in a while. Edited March 3, 2022 by Wainy316 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post sidcow Posted March 3, 2022 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted March 3, 2022 (edited) Superhero films. I mean they do nothing for me, but thats just personal taste. But Hollywood is just awash with them. They strangle budgets for other films. We've done this before but they've become so risk averse that hardly anything gets made anymore that isn't: Another franchise continuation movie A remake of a previously successful movie A movie about something that's already been a massive success (book or video game or real world event) There are SO few original films being made it's just sad. Would eg Back To The Future or Beverly Hills Cop or Die Hard or any one of a dozen stone cold classic movies get made today? Does the world really need another **** Batman film?
