Annoying things that annoy only you.

Then to top it off, she slams her seat all the way back right at the end of the runway. [/quote]

This is something that drives me insane! I hate when someone reclines their seat on an airplane, which then means the person behind you has half the room than they did before. I've asked people to put their seats back before...unfortunately they rarely do, or only for a minute. Why is your comfort more important than anyone elses?[:(!]

I was on vacation in Barbados and there was a large group of young brits. Everyone was afraid of me thinking oh my God he is from NY. The Brits (whom I really like) ended up being a bunch of loud jerks and very rude. I still love the brits but I think its a holiday thing with them that they act out like that but are nice otherwise. Who knows?

Back to the retail days....a customer would ask me if we had something. I would know, -I knew my stuff-- and if we had none of what the person would ask for I would let them know. The customer would leave me.

About 3 minutes later, someone else that works in the store comes around the corner WITH THE SAME CUSTOMER and asks me the same question. The customer would then say something really intelligent , such as --"Well I allready asked him." The other employee would say something like "Well he is the guy that runs this place, he would know"

To the customer, I would feel like saying something such as-"YOU DUMB FUCKIN SHIT, I TOLD YOU WE DIDNT HAVE ANY!!!!!", but instead I would politely smile and think to myself "YOU DUMB FUCKIN SHIT, I TOLD YOU WE DIDNT HAVE ANY!!!!!!!!"[:D]


So--how many of you here are those DUMB FUCKIN CUSTOMERS? I know theres gotta be a few!!!!![}:)][}:)][}:)][}:)][}:)][}:)][}:)][}:)][}:)][}:)][}:)][}:)][}:)][}:)][}:)][}:)]

<br>When people don't understand that the lane furthest to the left is for FASTER traffic. Not for oblivious boneheads who are not even paying attention to the row of cars stacking up behind them in their rear view mirror.

Get the F out of the way!- if you want to drive slower or be inattentive, move to the right!

To add to this peeve, the dildos that decide to play traffic cop in the fast lane and intentionally drive slowly, then speed up when you try and pass them.

In my family, we call those people "Lane Captains".

Eeek - reatal work pet peeves....

I worked in a couple record stores. I hated it when people would come in and ask "Where's Elton John?" Let's see....John...H-I-J. I believe he's under J you idiot.

[phillyidol]

You should have told him England.

[WolverineSyr]

I thought of that philly, but reciting "H-I-J...he's under J" seemed so much bitchier.

How about the exact change freaks, this especially applies to senior citizens. If something rings up $1.99 they will dig through their purses and empty their pockets to round up the exact change. I'm just standing behind them while they count it all out wanting to scream "Just give them another dollar bill you old billy goat."

[phillyidol]

I agree! And I always end up behind them on a line.

[hexicon]

Yeah, what is it about the old ladies who don't even dig the checkbook out of the purse until the cashier announces the total?

Or how about the parents who let their kids poke and prod the merchandise? Y'know how Starbucks has those refrigerated display cases with the sandwiches, etc.? The kids can't resist putting their fingers into the plastic wrap. I know they're not touching the actual food with their snotty, poopy little fingers, but it still grosses me out.

Or, speaking of Starbucks, those $&%#ing people who don't know how to order. I know some people think it's pretentious that Starbucks does short, tall, grande, and venti instead of small, medium, large, and extra large, but if you're going to bother to get your coffee at Starbucks instead of the gas station then you had better damn well know what a grande is.

Or the twit in front of me the other day who wanted a no-whip mocha. The barista screwed up and and put whipped cream on it, but instead of just asking him to scoop the whip out she made him re-make it, even though there was a long line. Hey, bitch, if you're so worried about the #%^ing calories why are you getting a whole milk mocha?

...or better yet, it's 2006, why is the person in front of me not aware that society doesn't write checks anymore, it's called a debit card.....USE IT!!!!!!!!!

Just imagine what it would be like if you were stuck in line behind some nitwit who required an explanation of the difference between glazed and Bavarian Creme. [:D]

One of my assistants is from Chicago and desperately misses DD (she orders the coffee online).

People who whistle in public!

[phillyidol]

Oh oh! Thats me. But it started for a reason. I work in some pretty bad buildings in the projects. I used to be silent then walk right into drug deals. So I started to whistle so they knew I was coming. It worked. Still does.

How about people that blow their noses without a tissue? You know, the one sided blow. I hate that shit!
