    Tried to find a local place to play snooker. Found one, all it has is a FB page with no useful info. But there are hints that they do other stuff there too like dance classes, sounds interesting!

    I send them a FB message asking about snooker prices, and whether there’s some info somewhere on what sort of dance classes they do / when / how much / just literally the info I need to give them money in return for goods and services.

    They reply with a one-liner about the price of snooker tables.

    I send another message, politely reiterating my other questions.

    They reply with another one liner saying “we do dance classes for children and adults”.

    So I give up, and I look up the company doing the dance classes. They also only have a presence on FB, and their page is similarly light on details. I also see that they do classes across two venues, one of which is too far away. So, I send a message asking for a list of their classes, price, location etc. Which ones are for kids vs adults, again just literally the info I need to use their service in any way.

    Get a one liner saying “we do classes in ballet, jazz and tap”. That’s it.

    You can have a hot bacon bun. You can have a hot sausage bun.

    You cannot have a hot Bacon & Sauasage in a bun. It impairs the flavour of both.

    Thank you.

      I would disagree, but you really need to add an egg in too.

    7 years in the country and now I can’t stay much longer because company decides to make me redundant and market is too fucked to get a new job with sponsorship.

    Only few months ago, my wife and I were planning to settle in this lovely country and now I’ve to leave.

    It’s also not that easy to go back and restart my life after leaving my country for 7 years.

    So, I’m royally fucked and still have 8 hours of office to go through before I go to pub and get shitfaced.

        Hey, a rant is a rant. Some issues ruin your day, some maybe a few months, but all complaints are valid.
