Irritations...

LetsHikeToday

Rational or not, let's hear them... I get irritated when I order water at a resturant and it automatically comes with lemon in it. I don't like lemon in my water. (this will be a post and come back later because we are headed out)

I hate when I ask for water with lemon and they don't bring the lemon and I need to ask again.  And again.  And again.

I hate when FI leaves the tiniest amount of kool-aid in the container and puts it back in the fridge. That's right. We're grown adults who still like kool-aid.

I get irritated when things don't go my way (irrational) and even more so when there is no reason why they shouldn't (I belive rational).

I hate it when people change plans that were already set. Especially the excuse of "I'm broke." Really? You had money 10 hours ago. Did you go broke overnight when you were sleeping?

Also, I hate open drawers and cupboards. I feel like I am constantly closing them all day long at work. And I love pinterest but the notifications on FB were driving me bonkers so I blocked them.

I hate it when MB is super slow like it has been lately. Where the heck are you ladies hiding?!?

I am irritated with myself for not doing my work. I am being soooo lazy.

I hate papercuts. Ow.

I'm with you spiffy on open drawers and cupboards. FI is horrible about that.

I'm getting really annoyed with my professor for my textiles class. Her syllabus is so weird and confusing then she'll randomly add in assignments. There was one that was due next week but it looked like today on the syllabus so I did it and she cancelled the assignment!

I hate when there's an expectation that you'll work 24/7 if necessary, and colleagues make a habit of making work calls well into the evening from home.  I don't bring work home, and I don't want to be expected that I will just because others make it an accepted standard company culture.  I don't get paid enough, nor do I get any benefit from doing more work outside of work hours.  You want me to be motivated enough to work at all hours?  Pay me more.  In fact, pay me a bonus per project so I have a motivation to get projects done quicker and better.  Until then, I do my work at a reasonable pace, take all the breaks I'm allowed, and go home.  I'm not saving the world, I'm working a desk job.  I don't need to kill myself to earn you more money.

Hang in there...not too much longer!

I hate that my knot won't post threads in order from last posted on. I'm sick of threads getting to the bottom of the page that could be interesting. Is that still happening with everyone else?

I'm irritated with myself for allowing myself to eat crap, and too much crap, the last couple of weeks. I have now gained 5 lbs since FI came home a couple of weeks ago. I know, "only" 5 lbs...but in a matter of two weeks?! Also, when you're not quite 5'0", those 5 lbs actually make a difference in your appearance. And...kind of a big deal when your wedding is in two months!

Yes. SO annoying.

I am irritated about the money situation with FI and I's banks. When he last got paid, he wanted to transfer money to me so that I could get groceries, pay the bills, and whatnot. That's been over a week ago. He decided to set up and bank-to-bank transfer instead of just wiring the money. I get that, wiring is expensive, and he'll probably continue to put some money over here for bills, so he wanted to go ahead and set it up. Well, his bank didn't certify my account until last Thursday night, so he sent money on Friday. It wasn't here by the end of the weekend, because of President's Day, but his bank said its post date would be the 21st. Now they're saying that they'll only put a trace on it if it isn't here by close of business tomorrow. Meaning it will have taken a week and a half to transfer funds. Which is making both FI and I really paranoid, even though we know that the bank checked my account so the money should be going to the right one.

I realize I'm hella lucky that he does any of this, but part of me wishes he'd just wired the money the first time so it would have gotten here before the holiday, and set up the transfer after that. We have bills that are late because I can't pay them. And that's really bothering me.

I can't stand the family members of some of my patients when they get pissed off that I sent their mom or dad to the hosptial.  You would think they would be happy that I'm doing my job and looking out for their well being.  I just don't get it.

H is terrible at closing cabinet doors. I can always tell where he has been because he leaves a trail of open doors and cabinets. WTH does this? Get what you need then SHUT IT. It's annoying the hell out of me right now, I literally called H back into the Kitchen to make him close a cabinet door. I will continue to do this until he gets the picture.

I'm mildly irritated with the AF right now. H just got back from a TDY and will be going on another. I know this will happen every other week until he deploys again. It's impossible for us to keep any type of schedule.

I get really irritated when FI doesn't put dishes in the dishwasher.  His is excuse is that he didn't grow up with a dishwasher and their SOP was to leave the dishes in the sink until there was a sinkful of dishes that warranted washing.  Ok, fine, I get that.  But we've lived together for TWO AND A HALF YEARS.  At what point do you start forming new habits?

Drives me freaking nuts.

I  love that you just used SOP in your post.
