NotchJohnson 214123 Report post Posted December 6, 2012 Driving at 6am in town and a car comes from a side road and almost does not stop drives in your lane and drives at 25-30 km/hr while you are on your way to Tim's for a coffee. Worst thing is he drives so slow that you get all the red lights. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
roamingguy 300292 Report post Posted December 6, 2012 People deciding the aisles in a grocery store are spots to stop and block while looking for what they want to buy...like they are the only ones who are there to shop People who walk through a doorway, and then stop, forgetting or oblivious that others go through the same doorway too People who don't pull right up behind the car ahead of them in a drive through. Often see cars backed up almost out to the street (in a couple cases even out on the street obstructing traffic) because drivers won't pull up RG Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VedaSloan 119179 Report post Posted December 6, 2012 People who ask me if I feel safe doing this work. Do you feel safe going out on dates or bringing people home after a night out partying? Who exactly do you think I need to be "safe" from? Because honestly, clients are the least of my fears. Abolitionist feminists who scream at me that I'm a racist, patriarchal collaborator are much scarier in my mind. Especially since they are often the ones dictating laws and policy. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cometman 35115 Report post Posted December 7, 2012 Lineups........I absolutely fricking hate them. I will go to the DoT several times and find a time with an empty parking lot. Fast food? There had better be only one person in front of me. Movies? Nope. Disneyland? Never again. If I have to wait forever in a line to do something, I'll find something better to do. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Ou**or**n Report post Posted December 7, 2012 Commercials and ads - by downloading almost all my viewing content from the Internet and reading most of news online but with a browser sporting AdBlock I am extremely isolated from commercials and ads. However the side effect is I cannot abide seeing any kind of ad or commercial which makes watching even the news painful. and completely unrelated... Cyclists, or more specifically cyclists that view the rules of the road simply were never meant for bikes. The speed through stop signs are red lights as if they aren't there. I can't count how many times I've shaken my head at how close they come to being hit and it being completely their own fault. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BownChickaBown 4829 Report post Posted December 7, 2012 Dis-ingenuous advertisers whom are by choice unwilling, and thus by extension, unable to substantiate or clarify their advertised claims when saying one thing in their ads before admitting otherwise they don't actually do what their ads say - yet continues to claim (through willfully ignoring facts; espousing baseless assertions; ignoring questions; blaming others for their failures) their opinion is fact and applies to all people in their industry irregardless of the real proven facts which already exist about advertising standards previously created by other true professional people when advertising specifics in their industry; while also not having the support of the industry as a whole when attempting to speak for the World they work in. Lame. Moreso sad than a pet peeve are also people whom suck up to proven failed advertisers to try and gain something from providing empty emotional platitudes to logical failure. Sad to see the sell-out continue, but c'est la vie - actions speak louder than words! ...and tags! I hate tags on lingerie - Makes me think: Since when did Angels shop at La Vie en Rose or La Senza and not in Heaven?? :S haha 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest C**Tra****er Report post Posted December 7, 2012 - Drivers that don't signal, understand how a 4-way stop works or know how to merge correctly. - People who don't hold doors open for you. I always hold the door for people. When someone does this it's polite to say "Thanks" or at least take your hands out of your pocket to take the door. Unless you're carrying something or have children/stroller, I'm not your doorman. - People who pass the buck or can't take ownership of something. I work for the federal government, and we seem to have an overabundance of these people. - The general perception that government workers are lazy. Granted there are those that are and have an incredible sense of entitlement (see above), but the majority work incredibly hard. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phaedrus 209521 Report post Posted December 8, 2012 - Drivers that don't signal, understand how a 4-way stop works or know how to merge correctly. Other drivers in general. I think I need my own private road system :) - The general perception that government workers are lazy. Granted there are those that are and have an incredible sense of entitlement (see above), but the majority work incredibly hard. The problem is that for every government worker who's working incredibly hard, there's another one who's working equally hard on something that's diametrically opposed...

Lexy Grace 103697 Report post Posted December 8, 2012 I have quite a few but I will list one as it just happened.. Private/Block callers!! I don't normally answer unless a regular "friend" leaves a message and an exact time they will call back but my phone has bring ringing off the hook non-stop all week from non-regulars. Tonight I answered just to see and of course the childish person on the other end had nothing to say. I mess with them sometimes and say "you like the sound of my voice", "this is why I don't answer private calls" and hang up but most times I just laugh and hang up. You get two hellos and if you don't respond, who knows what I may say. Jokes on them childish SUCKERS!! I have no time for games and time wasters.
