"Dear Customer,

Before we tell you about what's happening in waste and some of the improvements we have made we wanted to thank you for being a customer of Greyhound Household. We truly appreciate your business, and allowing us to collect your waste. It might be rubbish to you but it's the fuel that drives our recycling business. We'll never stop trying to make your experience even better.

Your Greyhound portal and mobile app is your one-stop recycling shop, from chatting with customer care, managing your bin account to finding out what bin is next up for collection. Speaking of our app, did you know you can order a replacement bin if it's damaged, or a new brown bin if you don't already have one, all with a single click! That's just one of the many new features that means you never need to call us, unless you want to and we're always here to listen!"

This sort of fuckin shit from Greyhound before they hike the bin prices.

The gym having 'couples day' and 'carnival day' with spot prizes for the best costume etc. Fuck off with that shite, it's bad enough at work without having meatheads and trainers dressed up like absolute pricks when you are trying to get through your few bits and pieces.

This isn't a 'pet' peeve it's a proper  full on rager:

People who leave their rubbish bags beside overflowing bins at the beach when they leave in the evening time.

Waking up to a mess of scattered rubbish after the seagulls have had their fun is a weekend occurance where I live, and an almost daily occurrance during the summer.

If your rubbish doesn't fit in the bin, bring it home or find another bin.

I can add to that. People who bag there dog shit and tie it to fences or leave it on the beach. Happens at my local all the time. The mentality of some people is incredible.  >:(

Would you believe I saw an article yesterday giving out about the amount of dogshit tied to trees in Limerick.  Don't think this modern replacement for shredded porn in a ditch has the same effect

A lad that I used to work with is married to an Italian lady. They met while she was working over here as an interpreter, eventually she moved to Cork full time, yadda yadda yadda, married with two kids - happy out.

Her folks arrived over one December to stay for Christmas. They went for a stroll as a family a few days before the big day on the waterfront between Carrigaline and Crosshaven. Kenny (the lad I worked with) was pushing the pram and talking to Sienna (his missus) and her folks.

I say "talking" but, at the time, Kenny spoke zero Italian and his in-laws spoke very poor English.

After a few minutes he noticed that his father-in-law was no longer part of the group. He looked around - all he was short was the old fucker to fall into the water and drown on Christmas week.

He spotted him looking up at some tree branches with a load of little black and green baubles on them.

"ARTURO! NO! JESUS CHRIST! SIENNA!" Kenny roared out.

"Como si dice? Isa forra a-Chreeeeeestmas, yes, Kenneeeeth?" pondered Arturo "Isa OK! I ama OK. Isa Chreeeeeeestmas! I ama a gooda boy!"

"NO. PAPA! NO!" screamed Kenny's missus.

Kenny had to leave the pram and break into a full sprint to stop his father-in-law from "unwrapping" a bag of dog shit hanging from a tree.

Apparently poor oul Papa was traumatised from it. The phenomenon has to be explained to him several times over a pint in The Drake.

Kenny lives in Italy now - not sure if he brought the tradition with him.
