  1. When you finally realize that good looking people have the advantage, and it turns out you really aren't one of them....
     
  2. Trades people that start work too early and wake people up.

    for years i assumed they were synonyms, then recently somebody said that people were "whinging and whining" so now i think there must be some subtle difference that i can't figure out.

  4. Until recently I'd never seen the word "whinge." Is it pronounced windge?

    Whoa, I like those things. Don't have to talk to a soul if I don't want to.

    Unless you pay with cash and dine-in. Yesterday, I ordered off the kiosk, grabbed a table number, input the table number with the order to reflect on the receipt. After I paid the cashier and waited for my food to be brought to me at my table, young lady (probably in her teens) comes out with a tray of food, but doesn’t know who it belongs to. She finally comes over to me and asks if I ordered the quarter pounder meal, and I said yes. My table number is 56, she tells me the ticket says 55. After she walks away, I shake my head because the ticket actually says 56. Young and careless!
    They try hard to be all sophisticated and modernized, yet, the real problem is the lack of good customer service. People complain about fast food minimum wage jobs not paying enough, but when you have people that can’t read numbers on a receipt or, worse yet (and I’ve personally experienced this), leave the meat off of a cheeseburger order (2 of them) - minimum wage is adequate pay to work in fast food restaurants.

    It’s British and means the same thing as whining

    Leaving the meat off a cheeseburger? :grinning: No child left behind indeed!

    Actually, twice I've used the kiosk and my meal was never brought to me. I had to go up to the counter with my receipt and table number. After confused conversation behind the counter I'm told my meal will be right out. And it is, in like one or two minutes.

    Australians also use 'winge' as I found when living there.

    It made me mad to have to leave Oz after 3 months just to renew my tourist visa. But they did let me back in for another three months after a short trip to Fiji...

    It makes me mad to have to clean up threads when some decide to make insulting posts about other members.

    Whinging **** is what my best mate always calls me. Us Aussies don't really hold back. We call a spade a spade.

    As long as you're even and fair with said members all's good. It might encourage others to pay the fee for a great forum. When one or two get away with blatant abuse forum members question authority.

    I wonder if there were a separate thread for rageaholics to beat one another up if that would help. Or if it would just spill over.

    No one is going to stay in one thread specially for that. Folks will be getting chased all over the forum- “where is that sum bitch?”
