I've had enough of my two closest colleagues - one sat next to me and one sat opposite - eating carrots. They've both recently taken to snacking on them, and both of them do it very noisily indeed.


One of them in particular bites chunks from his carrots with such gusto that I half expect him to leap up and slap his thigh, panto-style, before proclaiming how much he wishes he were a rabbit. He also opens his mouth for a chew every fifth chew or so, just to make sure you can hear what he's up to.


The other one's not quite as bad, but there's still too much munching and crunching, and I think he just encourages the other one.


I'm subjected to this at least twice a day - one carrot each - but often more.


It makes me grumpy. I think next time it happens I shall have to get up and leave my desk until they're done with their rooty snacks.

I am really bored with people talking about


1. "Mini mes"

and

2. People paraphrasing Mrs Merton along the lines of "So what attracted young woman to aging multi millionaire wrinkly" type remarks.


There are a few more - I'll have to get back to you on them. The 2 above are really bugging me to distraction, though.

Its probably awkward as the two Guys may be senior,on a larger wage....or put another way on a larger monthly celery..:-$

    • Looking for a battery operated cat feeder please.
    • Half my family are medics, going back generations, and none of them would ever have gone, or would now go, on strike. I know times have changed, but my family knew what they were signing up for, and accepted the detriment to their families and the hours (which, in the junior years, were way longer when they are now)... because it was not only a vocation, but a stable career for life. And they felt a genuine duty of care to their patients, whom they often put before their own children.  I can only conclude that entry-level junior doctors are more entitled these days. Plus, it's insensitive to nurses, who really do deserve a lot more money and recognition.  There are issues other than pay, like the lack of available posts, and having to move around the country, but they can be improved without a strike.  I don't think the right people are being recruited into the profession anymore. We're all on lower wages and paying more tax than we were ten years ago, but many of us just have to suck it up, work our socks off and get on with it.   
    • Beglfire I start, I have a lot of respect for Doctors and owe my life to them after various mishaps over the years.  I am however getting a jaded view of them continuing to run the strike ballot next week in the middle of what is turning into a bad winter for the NHS. Of course they may vote to not strike, but personally feel it is irresponsible timing to consider it as hospitals are already struggling.  Today the BMA warned of scaremongering over the current flu outbreak (BBC News - BMA warns of flu 'scaremongering' ahead of doctor strikes - BBC News https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5y22yzl6y6o) but just seeing how many people I know are going down with it, that feels like poor spin by the BMA. How do others feel ?
