What cheeses me off

Unnecessary paperwork for people in your situation. I had a breast screen a few weeks ago and was asked to fill in details of previous scans, which would have been years ago. I took a stab at some of the dates. Got to the clinic and the receptionist called across the room to me - you said you had a scan in 2018 and 2016. All we can find in your records is 2017 and 2015. I confirmed I'd taken a guess at the year and wondered - why did I have to answer those questions when you already had access to all my records and had to check them anyway?
That is one of the things that really CMO - it's laborious and several pages - I've been probably 10 times and you fill out the same info. I can't understand why it's not electronic
 
I really don't understand why Cocaine Cassie gets so much airtime when her version of events and descriptions and names of people vary with the interview. I presume she is being paid well for these interviews. My interest is less than zero
 
. Well that’s how we work sir.. what a long and expensive process..

Don't worry, you can never do what makes sense according to your wishes, it needs to follow a process.

One fine Chicago morning I saw bag not being loaded onto my flight to Winnipeg (it seemed only every second bags was actually being loaded). Needless to say it didn't arrive on that flight or the next 3 flights that same day.

So the next morning, mid morning I arrive back at ORD. I go to lost luggage to find out what's happening. Guess where my bag is ? In ORD, behind the wall somewhere. Can it be retrieved before I leave at 6pm this evening? No. So off it goes to Winnipeg ... [nb: before airtags were a thing]
 
A convicted drug smuggler making money off interviews? How wonderful.

P.S. I've never heard of this story. Today was first time if I'm not mistaken. Spent 1 minute on quick Google search to see headlines. Have zero interest in what she has to say. Why people waste their time to glorify her is beyond my comprehension.

Agree
I thought you could not profit from a crime (legally) — maybe one of the AFFlegal members can comment.
 
Supposedly the proceeds from book sales are going to 3 charities, not sure who would bother to buy the book though.
 
Anyway enough of a rant, my satay has just arrvd.
A rant in context.

What really CMO is that she was born in SA and the local media makes it worse. Seriously. Such a total vacuous irrelevant part of anyone's life.

Haven't got around to watching Monday's Four Corners about Sydney's toll roads, will do after getting my estatement today.

Yet another example of having to pay a video matching fee, phoned up to complain, all my fault they said, I need a unit in each car for the trips we do to Sydney, as I have 3 cars registered, yeah right, pay for 3 units and then I’m guessing they would hold 3 times 70 dollars each month of my money, not bleedin likely.

It needs to be attached to the windscreen behind the sun-visor and I was told that as the unit was on the dashboard and not behind a sun-visor, it can’t always be read by correctly. I'm calling bullsh!t on that.

We go to Sydney very rarely, one major reason that I can’t stand the place… :)

Granted, it's only 55 cents, but you multiply that for every time it is done across a day and how few times people will notice and complain, it would add up to a very sizeable amount.

Given the computing power available to them, I doubt very much it would cost more than a fraction of a cent to perform these searches.

Looking back through my previous statements, this has happened at least once every time we have gone to sydney.

So we have one unit, they hold $70 of my money each month, it gets toped up when it is used, which in it's self is a scam, guess they have all that money invested in a tax haven somewhere to pay huge bonuses. :)

I'll just put that company starting with a T into the same category as that other allegedly notorious tax avoiding parking company based in the Caribbean and try to avoid them at all costs, nothing but greed, greed and more greed.
