Pet Peeve of the day

After a long day of people parking their shopping carts blocking the center of the isle and continuing to walk 20 feet away to get a product they wanted, I'd like to come relax at home. Unfourtunataly the neighbor guy feels ther need to hammer on the siding project of his house remodel at 9:30 pm. I think I am going to hammer on his mellon.

What's your peeve of the day?

Re: Pet Peeve of the day

  • I drove all the way to school (45 minutes one way) just to find out our paper and review are both posted online. Oh, and people in San Antonio do -not- know how to drive, Left lane = for passing or going faster than the speed limit
  • mine is, people who don't listen and follow directions!

    i try to help people fix things all day, and no one ever listens the first time.  i end up having to tell people 1000 times to do things, because they think they know better than me what will fix it.  even though i'm the one who gets paid to fix it!

    eventually they try my way and it works and they are absolutely shocked that it worked.  they never realize i could save them a half hour of time if they would just listen to me in the first place!
  • It seems that every day someone on TK uses isle instead of aisle which really aggravates me. Learn the difference.
  • ANTS IN OUR KITCHEN!!!

    UGH.

    I hate bugs anyway, and we deal with a decent amount of them living on the bottom floor, but it seems like they're all invading our kitchen right now. I did a really thorough cleaning of the floor and counter tops yesterday hoping that would stop them from coming, but it didn't :(

    Gotta get some traps & spray tonight.

  • The intern at work doesn't understand the concept of quickly. When we have an animal out on the table, nows not the time to be slow! Get them out, get them up as fast as possible! Oh and she doesn't know how to clean or help out!!! She washed two instruments in a pack of thirty today, walked away from the whole bloody  pack and started texting!!!! That really ticked me off! Sorry that was more venting than anything but it felt good, thanks :)

  • people who misspell ANYthing. don't they have the red squiggly on their computer when it's wrong?

    OH--and adults (aka women old enough to be getting married) who use the wrong form of "you're" or "your", or "there", "their", and "they're". And alot. it's TWO WORDS. A LOT. does no one proofread nowadays??

    also--parents of children. not all (i'm sure all of you are flawless! :)), but the ones who don't follow directions and think their kid is perfection.

    OH--and people who don't tip well. If you are provided a service, reward whoever provided it to you. Not even just talking about myself (i work in the restaurant biz), but when I'm out with someone and they don't leave a good tip, I get so embarrassed! And usually leave extra..

    This.  Also, saying "suposably" instead of "supposedly".  "Irregardless" ticks me off too.
