OK... Last thing that really ticks me off. In another thread where someone was actually complaining about being edited by the SC, I expressed my need to be edited by hbunch7187 and I have recieved no response from the aformentioned SC. She's hot, I mean, drop dead sexy. What a babe. I think this is an outrage and demand a DPC Enquirer investigation!

Here's what ticks me off, when you buy a really big tub of peanut butter, so you can have pbj's for weeks and weeks, it's really cool until you get near the end of the tub...then there is still way too much left to throw away, but you got to really scrape and dig with your knife, and you only get a little bit of peanut butter per swipe, and takes like a million and 3 swipes to cover the bread, and you end up with peanut butter all over your knuckles, which is like cool, some extra peanut butter to munch, but your knuckles end up all sticky, so then you have to wash your hands before you can eat your sandwich, and then you have to really dry the heck out of them so you don't get your bread soggy....and yes, that was all one sentence!
....strange how you don't have that problem with the jelly....

Here's another thing that ticks me off, when your refridgerator is perfect cold enough for beverages (MMMMM), but when you make jello, you end up with a little layer of ice on top, which is all fine, you can easily scrape it off, but then it ends up causing that little gelatinous, rubbery skin like layer on the top of the jello !!!

Thank you for coming into my business and being ON your cell phone. I stand at the counter and wait for you to finish your business on the phone while I could be making someone elses pizza. I ask you what you want on your pizza and you have to say, excuse me I didn't hear you. Of course you didn't hear me you were talkin' on your damn cell phone! And thanks again because you just told me that the person that isn't even hear is way more important than me standing right in front of you waiting to take your order so you can eat your food!
And why do you call the pizza place to make an order when you don't even know what you want? I love it when someone has been on hold for two minutes. I go 'Sorry about the wait can I help you now' and you go 'HEY WHAT DO YOU GUYS WANT?'
If I tell ya your order will be delivered in 30-50 minutes, please don't call back in 20 and say it's been an hour. My computer keeps impeccable time and doesn't lie!
How can I deliver a pizza to you if you don't even know where you are? 'Can I have your address please?' 'I don't know, I don't live here, I'm just babysitting my friends plants...'
I'm the pizza guy. My job is to know how to get to where ever you live. I know all the streets in my area. You don't have to spell your street name every time you order. I may not have gone to 'O X F O R D' but I do know how to spell it!
And why do drunks wanna make fun of or piss of the pizza guy? Don't they realize I'm gonna make them something to eat? It isn't real smart to piss off the cook! (disclaimer: I would never do anything to anyone's food and I will fire anyone in my employ that did INSTANTLY and then hunt them down after work and kick their ass. I don't want anyone messin' with my food why would I do that to theirs!)
Oh and since I went there. I am a professional if only a pizza guy. Please don't end our phone conversation with 'Please don't spit in my food'. I find that rather insulting... I believe that the only people that would think someone would do that is someone who has actually done that...
Last but not least, Please tip your delivery guy. I'm really tired of hearing them bitch about those of ya that don't!
Did I miss anything? Holy f**k I gotta get a new job... |
If it makes you feel any better, the Pizza Guy has definite hero status at my house. My two boys are always overjoyed to see him and well, so am I. I don't stick my face to the window in eager anticipation and make faces like this:
but I'm damn glad to see him. I tip, probably better than most, because I've been there, I've also been the guy making the pizza too, so I just want to thank everyone who makes tasty pizza pies and keeps our tummies happy.

Bosses that have the personality of a bi-polar assassin,...the type that gives out peices of encouragement only to follow up with tons of belittling.
The type that always has a watchful eye on anything that does not follow to the letter of his law, only to give rise to his peculiar way of having fun during the work day. More belittling, but with toughts of being an idiot.

Maybe that's what happens when newbies are told that a DSLR is an entry-level camera, and they shouldn't buy anything but L glass.

People who tick the helpful comment box only when the comment says something nice about their photograph - If its a comment saying you should have done this or I prefer it if you had done this etc they dont like it, so no tick !
Maybe we should rename it from helpful comment to 'nice comment'!
:-p

| What really ticks me off is the reaction from people when they hear a southern accent. I am from TN born and raised. Apparently I have a strong accent. I am not aware of it since everyone else speaks the same way I do. When I went to New York and California, all I heard was "say something! Say...anything! I want my friend to hear you talk!" UURRGG!! That is so insulting. It really pisses me off that some people think that just because you have a southern accent that you live in a trailor park, you are married to your cousin, that you are ignorant, shop with food stamps and your name is either Bubba or Daisy May. |

They make a knife/spatula thingie designed precisely for this: it's made of plastic and it has these cool curves that match the inside of the jar, the ridges at the bottom etc. You just twirl it around and get all the last stuff up, whatever it is. I just tried to find one via google, no luck. Wonder where mine came from?

Now give me something to fix it, NOW!"
Which leads to...I have been in the Emergency room waiting room for over an hour! Always want to say...If it were such an emergency you would have been back there by now, right? Or,..We have 5 other people that were triaged before you with the same complaint, and they go before you. If you and the other 5 would have taken care of this 2 weeks ago at YOUR doctors office, the wait to be seen for EMERGENCIES, would be almost non-existent. :)

Not to get all serious in this decidedly un-serious thread, but that's a byproduct of our screwed-up health system, bucko. Trust me, I know. I live on a disability pension and my health provider is Medicare. It takes a MINIMUM of 2 weeks to get a doctor's appointment at my clinic. If I call up with something that needs immediate attention, they refer to the emergency room. It's my ONLY option, and it's a pain in the keister. Nevertheless, for many, many Americans the emergency room is the fallback primary-care provider; they don't have a choice.

People who insist on quoting an entire post when only maybe one sentence of it is applicable and then the people who respond by quoting the entire post again and again and again so a thread that could be > < this long ends up being >

That request actually sat in the reported post queue for most of yesterday. I don't think she's been on since early yesterday. :)
And I thought of another one...
People who start their post "Well, I didn't read the other posts in this thread but...," as if we should care what they have to say when they can't be bothered to care what anyone else has to say. |

People who don't use the quote feature at all yet include parts of other posts. Makes it difficult to figure what the other person said and what they are saying in response.

bear_music,
You seem to have a lot of answers, perhaps you can impart your wisdom to my pet-peeve? Anyone else is also welcome to pitch in.
Gum Smacking
I have a relative who is very sensitive and is easily wounded by comments of others. I'm not very good at diplomacy and have struggled with something they do that drives me crazy. Surely, I do plenty of aggravating things myself, but I'm concerned that this person's habit of incessantly smacking their gum might annoy their friends as much as it does me. They have complained about people in a workshop actually moving to the other side of the room, and I'm afraid it was because of the gum smacking. However, it doesn't bother my husband.
Should I try to bring it up, or am I just being hyper-critical?

Things that tick me off.
1. Customers that call for service at 430pm and expect you to be there by 5.
2. Panty Hose
3. Thong underwear that shows above the waist of your pants. (it's not that exciting after you've seen 20million).
4. People that complain about automated phone systems. Don't complain to the representative, complain to the company on their web site or with a letter to the manager. Eventually, after complaints equal to the population of the world, the company might get the message.
5. Grammar usage. Nothing bugs me more than a memo from some high powered executive with a secretary, that can't figure out the difference between to,two,too or there, their, or they're.
6. Movie trailers that show scenes that didn't make the final cut, or that include what turn out to be the only good lines of the movie.
