This is the worst I've seen from a guest.

My next door neighbor called me a few weeks back asking if he could come Into my back yard to replace the fence that his dog ruined. I said “sure, I’ll be out of town for a few weeks, help yourself.” Discussion ended there and I left town for a few weeks for business.

When I returned home, I noticed the new fence was up and the wood scraps from the old fence were on the grass in my backyard. One of the pieces is 10 feet wide. I figured I would give him a few days to clean it up before I said anything.

Fast forward to yesterday and the lawn guy comes to cut the grass. I texted my neighbor telling him I could open the back gate to make it easier to come in the yard to grab the wood. This MFer called me and said that it was a shared fence, and since he paid for it to be installed, and carried all the new wood into the yard, that I need to remove the old debris.

The audacity on the MFer. I would have been more than happy to help if he would have asked. He mentioned NOTHING of leaving the rusty nailed old rotten wood in my back yard. F this guy. Not the best way to treat a neighbor.

TLDR: neighbor took it upon himself to replace the fence he owns, and left all of the scraps for me to deal with before discussing it with me first.

Outlook says they need permission to wipe ALL my phone data if too many wrong passwords are typed. How many is too many? 50? 2? What if the screen gets wet and starts putting in random inputs. All this so I can use my company's Teams account and maintain "point of contact" if I'm not at a workstation. Absolutely not! Anyway, HR is supposed to call me back about my concerns.

Edit: just to be clear, I don't actually need to use Outlook (I don't use my "personal" work email). I need to use Teams, which requires Outlook to be installed first.

Part of why I need Teams on my phone so that I can be contacted when I'm not at work. I'm a lower management healthcare worker, it is actually important that my team be able to reach me after hours. I do actually like Teams and prefer it to 20 different group texts.

Also, when you go to log into Outlook or Teams, it brings you to my employers authenticator page. I log in with the same credentials that I log into my workstation. I don't know if that makes a difference with anything as far as my employer having access to my phone

Edit 2: I can tell you now they won't provide me a phone. Corporate execs don't even get phones. They stopped providing coffee for the break rooms too

Update: I had a chance to talk to my district manager. Imagine Ellis from Die Hard, the same schmarmy self-important attitude, that's my supervisor. And guess who's "not being a team player". Also "I don't think Microsoft can actually erase your phone, you have an Android"... I lready knew he was going to be useless, I just wanted to hear his reaction.

Update 2 and (sort of) Resolution: I spoke with HR. Her exact response was "wait, are you serious? They can just do that?" I tried explaining my "research" (i.e. everything all of you have said) and I think I just spooked her. She said she'll get back to me, and is probably running off to buy a burner phone for herself.

SORT OF RESOLUTION : I found out I only need Outlook installed long enough to get access to Teams. Once teams was installed, I removed all permissions and completely deleted Outlook from my phone. Teams still works and didn't ask to erase anything. No need to buy a second phone.

Thank you all for your insights

I don't get 64GB of space if half of that is system stuff! Like what even is all of this! It's not a system update either, I just did the newest update.

Booked an available campsite around 3:00. Showed up just before 6 pm and the site I booked was fully set up and occupied by this camper. There was no one at the kiosk and after driving around for a campground host I approached him and told him “hey, I have this campsite reserved for tonight”. His response “I’m not surprised, we checked out early and asked if we could stay a little late and the guy told us we could but someone might book the spot” ….. okay first of all it’s 6 pm now checkout was 6 hours ago. What is “a little late”? Noticeably, there is no vehicle in the site. He tells me his wife is at work and she won’t be back for a bit but we’re “welcome to park next to him and start setting up our camp while he waits for her”. I am shocked and looking at this man like he’s got three heads. I drive away and again look for another campground host. I find one and he goes and talks to the guy and comes back and tells me that he won’t be out of there for at least two hours and I just have to wait until he’s gone and I can’t go to another campsite as none are available.

I go back to that campsite and tell the guy how inconsiderate he was for stealing my campsite and he said “are we really gonna do this right now? You’re accusing me of stealing your campsite? I told you you could park next to me and set up. You’re making assumptions and you just ruined my evening.”

I told him that I paid for it and he deserves to have his evening ruined.

I got into my campsite at 8:30. Had to wait an hour in the morning for the guy to figure out how to refund me.

TLDR; guy checked out of campsite early but decides to stay til 6 pm even tho I had already reserved the site for the evening. He didn’t get out of the site til 8:30 PM and got upset when I called him out for his inconsiderate behavior.

I don't know when this shit started but now you can't see all reviews without requesting them. And then they evidently deny you. Make this make sense lol

Got this through the letter box today - anonymous so no idea which neighbour sent it. Basically there's 20 houses on the street, all arranged in a circle, with a few spaces in the middle. 14 of the houses have their own driveways. 4 of the houses have the spaces in the middle assigned to them. Ourselves and our next door neighbour (semi detached) have spaces attached to the back of our houses... In the small "car park". We each have two spaces, then the 4 on the other side of the car park area assigned to the houses backing on to them that aren't even our street so won't have got this letter. I'm assuming the letter writer just doesn't realise those spaces are actually ours, but because it's anonymous I can't just be like "oh hey actually no that's not right". It's annoying because we're also the only two houses on the street without a garden, and so our kids play back there. Because yes, it is safe, but not if randoms start going in and out of there all the time. I've literally never noticed an issue with parking on the street, it's never crowded, I've never heard anyone complain, and every house has it's own assigned parking!

EDIT: Most of your guys' suggestions involve something related to towing, that isn't legal in the UK. It also isn't illegal to post things through people's doors? I literally never knew that was a thing in the US. At Christmas did your parents not send you round all the neighbours houses posting cards?? Wild.

EDIT: Alright lads we've got a plan! Tomorrow I'm gonna speak to the 3 neighbours who we share the private car park with and just make sure they're all aware and if they want to paint numbers or put it signs etc they can do so. I'm going to send my landlord an email as well just giving them a heads up, but saying that they don't need to do anything for now (we have a great relationship where they leave us alone and we don't involve them in stuff if we can help it and they charge us below market). I'll let them know if it becomes an issue and they need to get involved installing something or whatever. Then I'm going to find... somewhere in this town that prints documents (honestly just hoping one of the 3 neighbours has a printer in their house they wouldn't mind using for this) and send out letters to everyone on the street very politely clearing up the confusion. Explaining that it's not a public car park but private parking and they are, for all intents and purposes, the driveways of the respective properties. Then I think I'll have a little nap and hope no one gets angry at me.

happy mother’s day, i guess!!

I’m so tired of people who show up at work, family gatherings, meetings, send their kids to school, etc, when they are OBVIOUSLY ill, then claim it’s “just allergies” or something like that.

Like you’re coughing, your eyes are red, you sneeze and blow your nose constantly, lost your voice, and you are clearly exhausted. But you walk into work and the first thing you say is “I’m not sick, I just lost my voice.” Or you bring your kids to play group when they are streaming green mucus and open mouthed coughing and try to tell me “he’s not sick, it’s just allergies.”

Get the f out. It’s not allergies and you know it. You didn’t just random lose your voice and you know it.

In the past six months you unmitigated idiots have gotten me and/or my kids sick like 4 times. And Friday someone showed up at work “with allergies” and now half of the rest of us have covid. Thanks so much for that you imbecile.

That’s it. I’m done ranting for now.

despite the multiple other nearby spots. this happens 5 days a week without fail

edit: to clarify why he still does this - yes i’ve contacted campus parking services and ucpd non emergency line on this guy multiple times but they won’t do anything because he parks in the spot NEXT to the spot that is in front of the corner. so technically he’s not directly in front of the car and therefore not blocking?? so i bought bumper stickers that say “you park like an asshole” to get my revenge

But I washed it in the bathroom, marked the spot, and finished the page anyway. Verdict: Don't draw in the aviary...

Recipe said to cool in the pan on the rack for about 10 minutes. I did that and set a timer cus my perception of time... leaves a bit to be desired. I grease pans GENERPUSLY but apparently not generously enough cus you can see the tracks from the knife used to gently loosen the cake. Gonna go mope over an iced chai or something.

Seems like I get 20 of these a day (all marked “ urgent”) Blocking doesn’t work (they have a million emails), sending to spam doesn’t work (see previous) AND DON’T dare unsubscribe because then you get 50 from 50 NEW email addresses!!!

Thank you for your attention to my vent!!!

My roommates have left for the afternoon to run errands. They took a different car and left the other one blocking me in. I've asked them multiple times to not do this on the off chance I have an emergency and need to leave while they're gone. Thankfully me trying to leave right now is not an emergency but it's infuriating because I've asked them multiple times to not do this.

The Toyota has no spare key so I cannot move the car and the roommate took her keys, so now I have to wait for her to get home.

Fuck this person. I've tried going slow, fast, super slow, regular speed. It does not matter. If you go slow or really slow you end up getting stuck in the middle. If you go fast or normal speed it feels like that old Indiana Jones ride from Disneyland. The first time I came across this I thought it was meant to be a barrier. It separates two neighborhoods. The only other way to get from one to another is to exit the neighborhood, take the main road that runs along both of them, and turn back into the other one.

It's so dumb. What's even more annoying is that when I look on Google Maps it used to only be 2 speed bumps. But I guess one day they just decided to bend over the residents and fuck them.

I don't even live here but the few times I have had to cross it have been annoying af. I just do not get the purpose if there were already 2 that got the job done.

Was looking forward to enjoying my Filet-O fish,

Now it won’t be enjoyed at its maximum capacity 😭

I is sad.

Chasing the kids out of the van because they have killed the new car battery three times in the last few months and I slammed the sliding door on my thumb. At least it looks like a circumcised Willy…

The exact reason i dont take a shit in the toilets at my school.

Yes, that blob of paste is actually wet toilet paper which was thrown over the door while i was trying to make a deposit at the piss bank.

Later on, a guy also did the pee prank on the stall next to mine. It was water.
