First World Problems

Complaining is a basic human right.

This is a conversation just for those ridiculous first world problems and never the serious stuff.

I'll start. One reason I catch the train is for the little shop. You have to like a little shop don't you think? The doctor likes a little shop. Anyway, for some reason it gets shut for an hour mid journey. Not to restock or anything. I think it is just done to confuse me and to deny one of life's essentials- coffee. I'm not sure why I am enamoured with the shop because the food is rubbery and the service randomly hostile or pleasant. Perhaps it is Stockholm syndrome.

That train little shop is the biggest magnet to my husband. He gets so much exercise on long trips traipsing back & forth for "necessities" from the little shop!!!

A great topic Rob, The store is closed to annoy and bug you...that is my life story....my sister would say its 'god's will'....with respect to summoning the good lord I dont agree with my sister...

My complaint is why Nescafe Gold Barista coffee is $18-00 for a 200 gram can from Woolworths/Coles. It their finest product available. It comes in 'Smooth' and 'Intense'....In the small writing on the pretty can it says' Packed in Greece from imported ingredients' The cost of labor in Greece is a no brainer but nearly $100-00/kilo? grrr

Hey redgirl

I am sorry you have not received any help here. Technology can be a bit frustrating at times. I am not sure what has happened, but mostly when we post something, it goes to the moderator staff and may not show up straight away. I had a look around the forums for perhaps a thread you may have started, but I couldn't find you. Where did you post, besides here?

Please don't give up.

Hope you are OK??

Love

Shell xx

Ok...the fuel prices up this end of town have been over the top. But recently a 7/11 opened up and cut 6 cents off a litre! The other 3 servo's within a block of each other have now done the same. Yay!

We haven't had this sort of competition ever! But the prices for those 3am runs for milk or smokes are still the same.

As for the little train shop Rob, I remember when I was little and travelling out west, the shop was the most exciting part of the trip! It didn't matter if the pies were rubbery or over priced, or the sandwiches were soaked from wet lettuce. My eyes only just reached over the counter and it was like a treasure trove of mysterious wonder. Oh to see through the eyes of a child again.

Paul...it seems you do have expensive taste in coffee. I'm fine with instant because it doesn't have the caffeine content. Brewed coffee makes me climb the walls.

Red-girl...Shell and I have seen your post and hope you don't give up. I had problems on here when I first started and sent an email to the technicians. They replied quickly and within a few weeks the site was fine. Please stick with us...

Kind thoughts...Dizzy x

I can't charge my smartphone...the connection is stuffed.

I've lost all my pics and stuff. I looked into data recovery online, but it costs hundreds and I need that to buy a new phone. I need to win the lottery, but can't afford tickets.

Boo!!

I had the need of reinstalling the operating system and having to move the files about so they would not be lost forever with the reformatting and stuff. It seems that when the computer gets to this 5 year old stage I always want to just buy another one rather then fix the problem. Why can't I have sufficient income to be able to buy things on a whim?

Well at least you will no longer suffer the head cold.

The necessity of unsubscribing from a marketing email. Thus should be the reverse in that you should only get the email if you subscribe to it

Advertising on mobiles where you can't exit the screen

Oh Tony...you make me laugh sometimes...you too Rob!

Yeah...unsubscribed advert's.

For me...it's too cold to open the house up. Have to close doors and put the heater on. How inconvenient! I have a cold too...

That the milk companies have started putting those plastic hygiene seals on the milk. I can never get the bloody things off. Besides I survived for 31 years without dying from milk contamination so why why are you doing this to me??

This is a very old thread but I'll reply anyway since complaining is part of my personality lmao.

The lack of parking spaces. Not just at uni (payed $180 for a parking permit but can't find spaces anywhere) but in the city, just everywhere. I mostly just take the bus.
