    Major Complaints Thread

    Lots of kite flying about the budget but it’ll be a tight one alright, not much choice otherwise as it’s too hard to be sure about corporation tax in 2026. I can’t see a massive downturn in property prices, there just isn’t the numbers built right now for that to happen. I’m starting work in...

    I’ll wait until hell freezes over. That dick isn’t getting that off me. The place needs about €30,000 of work to it.

    Major Complaints Thread

    We’ve been the highest bidder on a house for over 2 weeks now and it’s at 12k over the listed asking price. We called the estate agent today to get things moving and he said the seller wants us to give an additional 18k as that’s what he thinks it is worth. The absolute cheek!! There’s no one...

    It looked a bit rough out there for a while. A few Oireachtas Committees started around that time and the witnesses didn’t deserve to have to run the gauntlet to speak today.

    I work just beside there, so pop in every now and then when it’s off season and quiet. I haven’t been to the Museum of Curiosities yet. Saving that for when @Jill Hives is here and we can go there daytime drunk. It’s our thing.

    We’re moving out of Dublin soon so we’re working on a bucket list of stuff we want to see or do while we can. Today was a very early walk around the quays and grand canal, and we were the first people in to my favourite pastry place, so everything was warm, crispy and delicious. Chatted to some...

    Minor complaints thread

    I don’t mind waiting around so I’m the designated A&E person in my family. The Mater manages to top Limerick Regional for “WTF” moments. The prisoners handcuffed to Guards always makes for an interesting chats though. I was there with my Nana 15+ years ago when a prisoner went to go to the...

    Your work situation

    Got a promotion and now I’m the highest I want to get in the job. I just need to keep my head down for a few months and then I’ll never have to do an interview ever again. I think they have a job in mind for me but it’s not available until January. Kinda a fixer/putting out fires type thing...
