PK 28 Jan 10:46am, 28 Jan 2025 1,275 posts	0 PK People on buses who: * Stand unnecessarily close to seated people * Think it's okay to keep bags over shoulders and not bother where said bag is going when they turn to chat to their mate/move down the bus/just stand * Stand awkwardly in the middle of the bus so folk coming on have to squeeze past, when they should just move to the back of the bus like your supposed to and create space (those getting off at the next stop are exempt from this)

Jason1969 28 Jan 11:20am, 28 Jan 2025 13,524 posts	0 Jason1969 Spleens - as a cyclist, this drives me mad, too. I never even jumped a red light when I was a courier.
RunningRonnie 28 Jan 12:11pm, 28 Jan 2025 3,595 posts	0 RunningRonnie Local parking company sends us a charge notice due to parking in their car park without a permit. However, the car was not parked in their car park, it was in another car park with a barrier that happens to share an entrance with the other car park. Sent them the barrier code that proved which car park was used. They reply that "as a gesture of goodwill, the charge will be cancelled." No - not goodwill. You were just wrong! Don't say it's goodwill as though we've still done something wrong and you are letting us off with it.
