Not sure how true this is, but every spark I've ever known has sh*t hand writing including me.

Don't worry Doctors have sh*t hand writing too.

Doctors invented and perfected sh!t handwriting.

I'm surprised they didn't patent & copyright it.

I must be shoppping at the wrong places as every wallet I have ever purchased has been empty

Aye ...... and you buy it - a nice, slim wallet - and stuff all your credit & debit cards, till receipts, condoms, bus tickets, etc into it and then find it's too fat to fit in your pocket.

Instruction manuals that cover several models instead of being specific to the one you bought.

instruction manuals that make less sense than ukesrail.

A couple of work related ones:
When you're up a ladder in a precarious position, the person footing the ladder gets bored and starts banging on the ladder.

When people borrow your tools and lose them, or break them, or give them back dirty or otherwise not in the condition they were lent in.

New chargers. That's another one. When you've just forked out a fortune for a new drill, you leave the charger lead neatly coiled up as it was when it left the factory because you're only going to be charging it next to a socket anyway, someone borrows it and the first thing they do, first thing, is they uncoil the lead and lose the tie. Why do that? It's totally unnecessary because they're charging it next to the socket, and if I'd wanted it uncoiled, then I would have uncoiled it.

People who are so precious about their own knackered old tools they won't even bring them in to work, then they expect to be able to borrow mine. No you can't borrow my tools. I need them. That's why I bring them to work.

I need a drink now.

FWIW I spend three months in Turkey for work. Commissioning drives in a zinc mill.
It was not an experience I would wish to repeat or an experience I would wish on anyone.
It was about 40 years ago and even then...........
OK. I could be loquacious, verbose, garrulous even about the trials and tribulations but just one example might give a flavour.

Come back to your hotel room after a day at work. Take a shower. A perfectly reasonable and normal thing to one might think. So, get all soaped up - then the bl00dy water supply fails.
What do you do? Give up and try to wipe it all off or shiver for a while in the hope that the service might be restored. It wasn't an uncommon occurrence - you just got used to making it quick.

But Mrs B an I have been back to Turkey on holiday. Different part. It was probably the best holiday abroad we had - maybe excluding our recent trip to the US.

I mean, how often do you get to sleep with your wife and her best friend in the same bed.........
