Things that give you the sh1ts

Getting a new work phone, you'd think it would be an easy transition.

Lucky I did a heap of work yesterday in anticipation of today being non-productive.

The new sim has "SOS only", I've lost all my contacts despite backing it all up prior to the switch, even placing my old sim in the new phone doesn't retrieve my contacts but they're still there if I put it in my old phone.

FFS!!!!

Are the contacts on the sim or old phone?

I thought they'd be saved to both.

Might need to copy them from the old phone to the sim again

I've tried that, trying again.

What phone you got? I have a Samsung and link all my contacts to my Google account. That way when i sign in on the new phone they all download... if assume apple would be the same sort of process

Yeah, they're iPhones, It's asked for a Google Exchange password, I've never seen it before and it won't accept my Google password.

HAHA! I haven't seen a teledex since I was a kid and mum had one next to the phone!

Get one of your kids to do it

Get one of your kids to do it

That's my usual go to.

Chick at work is playing with it now.

See if she can fix your phone too...

Today. F*ck today.

My old man is out in the boat. My lad is playing golf. I'm in a f*cking office copping shit from people about meaningless shit.

Turning right from Grange Road onto Holbrooks road

People that butt in on a convo and then talk over the top of you while you're speaking.

We have a very well educated man at work who is notorious for this, he done it a couple of times to me and another bloke this morning, I just rolled my eyes and shook my head on those occasions, he followed up by getting me again twice in a meeting within a minute of each other, I was a little less forgiving the 2nd time.

I don't think I'll encounter that problem again today.

Such a shitty intersection, banks the traffic up as it takes the RH lane out of play nearly all the time.

The next one isn't much better in the afternoon either is it?

Holbrooks Road is just poop in general, getting on it from East Avenue is a lot of fun too.

Haven't done the EA to Holbrooks for a loooong time but yeah that would suck too

It used to shag me big time when my lad played at Flinders, we could be 10 minutes early or 20 minutes late, until I found some alternatives.

Interested in people's views on this, but do you people out there every have periods when you feel like everything you touch turns to shit?

At work in getting crapped on due to some project issues.

Things with the partner not going well.

Filled in as coach for the kids soccer team for last couple of weeks ad the main dude is working, just had a parent complaint about not being fair.

Issues with the wider family due to my sister not wanting to be part of my life, which is odd as she recently stormed out of a family function telling us all to go get ****** etc etc.

Not having a good run. Don't get me wrong people are well and nobody is in poor health, but just found myself in a weird little patch here.

just cherry picking this bit:

You have put in your own time to make sure a group of kids have a game of soccer. The other parent has not gotten of his/her arse but wants to whinge about those who have, because of some perceived slight against their precious little crotchfruit.

You are well within you rights to tell this goose to GAGF. Myself, and other right minded posters here, would applaud you for doing so.

Absolutely spot on.

Certainly can go through these patches Stan, hope some blue sky is ahead for you

Stan. I reckon most of us have suffered from the SADIM (midas backwards) touch at one point or another, But as my father once told me even shit is useful.

I echo Pseudos comments above. Many tasks are thankless at the time but eventually the weight of good works are rewarded.

Having the courage to post is just another good thing you have done. As for family issues, perhaps aim to have a great day with your kids tomorrow.
Those lil buggers can cheer you up in no time.
