Pet hates

[kingeri]

Just wondering what everyone's pet hates are. You know, those things that really get on your ----. I went to a job last week and there was a massive gap between the backboxes and accessories - I'm talking about a 5cm gap here. I thought the accessory and backbox were supposed to form an enclosure! It really annoys me!

Don't get me started on light fittings. Not just wall lights:
screws on those ceiling lights that aren't long enough to line up with the fixing bracket
Floodlight brackets that mean you have to fit a half inch screw, a nut and two washers while 15ft up a ladder.

I think that the MD of lighting companies should, BY LAW, be made to install every one of their products before they are sold on the market.!!
