Rain/ annoying colleague/ general intolerance

[palinurus]

Started raining just before I was about to leave. I thought I'd be able to slip past his desk if I was quiet, just put the laptop away, stuff a few things in my courier bag and make like I was on my way to the coffee machine.

Was heading for the double doors, didn't even see his head move but I heard him..

"Oooh, you'll need your waterproofs tonight".

Every f*cking time, Jesus christ.

Hopefully in the next round of redundancies it'll be him. Or me.

empty a cup of water on his seat before he gets in. then when he arrives, tell him "Oooh, you'll need your waterproofs today".

 

[jay clock]

pee on it and say "ooh you should have worn your waterproof pants then at least it wouldn't have stained your seat"

 

[dan_bo]

chin him then say 'waterproofs wouldn't have stopped that happening'

 

[PBancroft]

Wait until petrol rises substantially again (and it will) and then say...

Oooh... you'll need to buy fuel again.

Or -

Wait until its lovely and sunny, and

Oooh... gorgeous weather for a ride home.

Or just make the next round of coffees and say...

Oooh... wouldn't it be lovely if one of these were yours?

I like your way of thinking, dan bo!

94.9p a litre from tesco last time i filled up (saturday)
But i had one of those 5p off vouchers. so cost 89.9p.

I only fill up once every 6 weeks or so, so the rises barely effect me.

I had someone at work ask me when I was going to stop cycling for the winter. like it's expected of me that I would give in to the colder weather. she looked very confused when I said "I'm not, i'll just wear tights"

I dont think she understood what i meant, poor lass probably has terrible mental images of me in a pair of 20 dennier tights now... bless.

Could he not be not just trying to be helpful or strike up a conversation ?

I hate it when I was getting sorted for a ride and (someone who'll remain nameless) said 'its gonna rain...'



= It rained



Though I was.....

when I got in as I got soaked !

 

[hackbike 6]

Yeah, didn't they announce their profits today?

edit: £6.4billion for last 3 months

Not bad.

 

[sheddy]

Say 'My skin is waterproof - what sort do you have ?'

but Shell make even more (biggest profit for a UK listed company) but get away with it.

maybe BP will just shade them this qtr?
