    When you try to buy tickets and the * transaction is cancelled because the bank system is down and then by the time it's up and running the tickets have gone. :47:

    Lloyds TSB/ Halifax/ Bank of Scotland are all having problems with online banking at moment. *.

    They do this so that later, if you try and get money off the bill by saying meal was crap, they can then say they asked you if it was alright and you answered yes. Then you get * all.

    That's the only reason it's done. Not out of a false sense of politeness.

    I * hate doing that (asking I mean). Not one person I've asked has complained and it's dead awkward. As you say, people who have a problem will complain. Not as if you go "this is *, but I'm going to wait until someone asks me if everything's alright to say something". Can understand why we need to do it though, if you don't ask them then they can eat a full meal then complain and get their money back or whatever. Supposed to ask them within 2 minutes to stop people taking the *.

    If i am out for a meal and enjoying it and if the service is good then i will leave a tip UNLESS the waiter/waitress comes up to me more than once to ask if food is alright.
    They do that, they get * all.
    I actually had someone who came up to me after waiting ages for starters which they tried to serve us AFTER the main meal had arrived and they asked if meal was alright.
    Needless to say they didn't get a * tip.
    They tried to put it on the bill as a service charge. I got it taken off as well as price of starters which we refused and they also took off a £5 each because of the 'inconvenience'.
    Still won't go back to them, useless *.

    I get that,that's what I meant when I said they have to ask..
    But for me it's just annoying the whole waiting for half hour/45 minutes for the grub to turn up so your starving and then when it turns to and you get right in amongst it stuffing your face they walk up 'how's your meal,everything good'..
    Well give us a minute and I'll let you know I've only just took my dirt mouth full :rolleyes:..
    Just to cover there self they may aswell just wait when they being your food and drinks out and day 'go on then let us know if that's alright so I can go?'..

    I don't envy you having to do that bud,must dob your * in big time the kind of falseness you have to put on,suppose you get used to it and it becomes natural over time,but you have to do it otherwise your boss will have you liable if complaints are made and take it out your wages or even worse send you down the road..
    Think it's just one of those things both sides hate doing asking and being asked.

    I left Facebook years ago. Twitter was great for a wee while until everyone and their dog (literally) got it and started posting the most mundane * ever.

    There's something trivial that annoys me: people creating social media accounts for their pets.

    Social media is full of attention seekers with * patter.

    In real life too, attention seekers with * patter.

    People (it's usually birds) who say/type a glass of 'vino'.

    Don't understand why they feel the need to translate that specfic word into Spanish. Either the whole sentence in a foreign language or no words at all. Just say wine.
