Just a thread where you can have a moan about something annoying you and get it off your chest

I am p****ed off as one guy at work is not doing his job (even after being hand held) and the whole department is getting flake, the lazy so and so

Forget comparisons with others, which are always based on subjective standards. Be thankful you've got a job. Be worth more than you cost.


Period.

I want to moan about jankrb ! He refuses to resign against me in game 4782945. His position is not just lost - he is now making me mate him with Q+K against K. I'm rated 2000, I can do this in my sleep, but he is taking the maximum 7 days over every move for no reason that I'm aware of other than to annoy me.

Please do not accept any challenges from this prick.

I wish to complain most strongly about everything.

if this is all you have to bitch about you should consider yourself lucky.

can i ask you a question...you're playing in an OTB tournament and are down to just a king against your opponents K & Q but his clock in pretty low on time and you think you can pull off a result...do you play on or resign?

Game 4782945

So why don't you quit your moaning and go mate him?

EDIT: He's playing by the rules. Perhaps thinking there's a chance you'll timeout or die of old age before you can give checkmate. Is there any chance you've somehow offended him (hard as that is to imagine) and brought this treatment on yourself?

That's one of the keys to job security. The other is to be wise in selecting the right company in the first place... one with market

staying power and policies which give a sweet damn about their people. Key to promotion is to start thinking your boss' thoughts.

Looks like it is working then. 😛

Aren't you glad this thread was started to enable you to vent?

More likely I'll die of boredom !

There are plenty of circumstances I'd play on in OTB games if my opponent was short of time, but this is not one of them.

I did nothing to offend him before he started acting like this - other than by beating him. Of course he's not going to be happy with me now though !
