9 things we can’t deal with

We just can't cope.

Give me strength.

While most of the time I would consider myself and the other ladies here at Her.ie a fairly cheery bunch, there are a few things that really grind our gears.

Here is a list of the things that we just can’t be dealing with this week, hopefully you feel the same.

1. The Irish ‘summer’

Well, if you could even call it that. Worrying about bringing an umbrella on your walk to work in the middle of August is just plain ridiculous. We want a summer and we want it now.

2. Slow walkers

They are everywhere! Why is it that the one time you are in a rush to get somewhere that everyone starts walking at the speed of moss? Tourists are the worst people for committing this crime. Get out of my way already!

3. Public transport

Of course, the bus decides to leave a few minutes early the day you sleep in but is late the day you want to get in early to finish off your presentation. Rush hour is always a pleasant and sweaty experience for everyone as well.

4. The Sunday night fear

After a heavy weekend of going out and enjoying yourself, there is nothing worse than the Sunday night fear. Lying in bed on a Sunday night thinking of all the work you have to get through this week is a nightmare.

5. People eating with their mouths open

Ew, ew, ew! People should always close their mouths when they are eating, it is just good manners. No one needs to see the half consumed ham sandwich rolling around your trap.

6. Bumping into your ex 

Cue awkward moment. Bumping into your ex is always a gut- wrenching and flustered experience especially if you meet him when you have just nipped to the shops in your old joggers sans bra to get milk for tomorrow morning.

7. Online trolls

Why do people think it is okay to be so mean online?  Do they not realise that there is someone reading their comments? If you can’t say anything nice online just keep it zipped and save us all the drama.

8. Tiny portions

Paying €30 for dinner in a fancy restaurant and still being hungry enough to want a McDonalds afterwards. It’s an absolute joke. Give us the food, please. We just want the food.

9. Crap wifi

Is there anything more rage-inducing than waiting on bad wifi to connect? I don’t think so. You end up spending five minutes just trying to send that one funny Snapchat until it drives you absolutely mad. Don’t even get us started on trying to Facetime with a bad reception.
