In no order of importance: 1) When snow sticks to my snow shovel 2) People that drive slow in the left lane 3) People that don't use their turn signals 4) When people don't finish the last sip of their beer 5) When people use double negatives (and "seen" instead of "saw") 6) Smokers (& I don't mean 355's that need valve guides) 7) When a gust of wind comes along when I'm raking leaves 8) People (usually women) that sit there and yak and yak on their cell phones while driving 9) People that make threads about what frustrates them 10) Squirrels that can't make a decision 11) People that can't figure out the self-serve check out 12) Litter What say the rest of you?
The three 20-something girls in line at 7-11, each buying a pack of gum, and each paying separately. And taking even longer because they have to comment on each celebrity magazine cover in the point of sale rack.
1) People that veer right and then start to turn left as they come to a stop, so they are slightly-diagonal on the road for their left turn... meanwhile if the jackass had just kept left, then other cars could have gone around unimpeded. I want to get out and beat their face to a bloody pulp... do you think the turn is so tight that you need to apex just right to make it? 2) When you go to a large store like Home Depot or Target or whatever, and as you are driving along in front of the store, people are walking across to the parking lot to their cars. But some of them don't cross and then turn towards their car, they make a straight line towards the car even if it's far away, meaning they go in a very diagonal direction and end up walking in the middle of the road most of the way. Just a lack of IQ and courtesy. 3) People who don't know where they are going, so they go really slow and have a line of cars behind them and hit the brakes as they approach each side street. YOU'RE lost, not all of us.. how about driving at a normal speed, and when you see your street, if you end up passing it, big deal - make a U turn and then you'll find it. Don't make us all wait. 4) People who drive 5mph under the speed limit on single lane roads. Especially during busy times. And it's maddening when they slow down each time they go up an incline and speed up each time they go down an incline. 5) People who stop their shopping carts on the left side of the aisle as they turn to the side and browse product on the right side of the aisle. You're blocking the whole aisle, halfwit! 6) People who open their doors and ding the cars next to them. They should be burned alive. 7) When you call any business and the person answering says "thank you for calling ABC corp hold please <click>". At least be *somewhat* polite and let me say hello before putting me on hold 8) Deceptive marketing... "video professor" (scam that bills you monthly for stuff you never ordered) "Free Credit Report" (it's not free - your "free" report is conditional on signing up for a $10/mo service). If your product is any good, people will pay for it knowingly. You don't need to lie and deceive people to earn a buck. And if it's not good enough that people will pay for it... well... find another product to hock! 9) Waiting 30+ minutes after your appointment time at the doctor or dentists office, especially when they tell you to be "at least 15 minutes early". My time is valuable too buddy - how about getting your scheduling down a bit better instead of making me wait? 10) People who make their mind up about something they know very little about, and will lecture as if they are aware of all the facts, yet are unwilling to listen to any additional data that may change their viewpoint. Or, more succinctly, people who spout off their ideas without even taking the time to see if they know all the facts first.
people who can't decide which lane they want to be in, so they just drive in both for a while. got stuck behind someone doing that this morning for about a mile...
People in my office that would rather have a meeting and discuss a problem as length instead of simply taking half the time and fixing the problem.
How about the guy that makes an issue of some insignificant aspect of the business only so he can swoop in and "save" the company by his genius fix? And the boss thinks he walks on water!
I agree with a lot of above. The bolded one irritates me just because one of my friends does that. One time I had a good buzz going at the bar, he had taken some sips out of his new beer and the old one was still there with at least 3-5 ounces left in it. I just started laughing, picked it up and poured it into his new beer. He was so pissed! It was funny as all hell! You are not kidding. They don't watch where they're going. They can't talk and push at the same time. They walk too damn slow.
1. People who sit your blind spot. 2. People who are making a turn and cut into your lane almost causing a head on collision. 3. Drive-thru people who cut you off as you are ordering asking if that is all you want. 4. People who can't seem to pull up to the white line at a stop light. 5. People who leave 2 car lengths between them and the person who is in front of them at a light.
Idiot at the checkout stand, questioning the checker, forcing price checks then writing a check, all while purchasing Rice Chex! Check, check, check!
Things That Frustrate me: Just people really. Anything else I can smash with a hammer and I feel better.
Alrighty, let's start in the parking lot: --No, you're not going to make up all your lost time from the day by racing through the lot at 40mph --And those arrows? Those are to tell you which way you're supposed to be driving. That's why the parking spots always seem to pointing the wrong way for you dear. --If you need a step ladder to climb up into your car, it's probably a little too big for you to navigate down the road. --You're about to walk a mile inside the store--do really need to wait 10 minutes behind someone as they load their car so you can park 15 feet closer to the store? --Those racks you see are called cart returns. Don't be a lazy-ass. Take your cart back.
Don't just get frustrated, do some good ol' fashioned HATIN'! http://thebestemployee.com/forum/showthread.php?p=67307319#post67307319
