Topic for the Day 10/2/2002 What are your Pet Peeves
Original post by shamma
I have quite a few
1) People who use the toilet and leave the cover up 2) People who do not wash their hands after using the rest room 3) women who run their hands thru their hair while you are standing behind them 4) People who drive and do not indicate 5) I cannot sleep with the bedroom door open 6) I cannot sleep with the closet door open 7) People who butt in to conversations 8) People who hit their hands when they are asking you for the time...LOL j/k 9) People who comes to my desk when I am having my lunch and picks out of my food w/o even asking, and it might be the same person who does not wash their hands from the bathroom..LOL
I can't wait to hear what you ladies have to say.
Hope everyone is having a wonderful day

OK I got it!
For everyone who has waited on a LINE, why do people have to be within an inch space between you and the other person????
I down right ask some woman that she better 'propose' first if she wants to get that close!

You ladies are hysterical ...
I hate the tailgating too - I slow down on purpose, I just can't help it! I hate when my boss comes in when I'm on the phone or right when I go on-line to check something I hate the butt thing when people are bigger than this little space and try to squeeze next to you. I hate when a fully dressed woman in Nike sneakers is begging you for money on a subway -- uh duh, you are wearing Nike's and a polo shirt! I hate when people do not wash their hands in the bathroom - especially at the gym. I hate it when people stay on the precor longer than they signed out for!!!! I hate it when someone doesn't wipe down the machines after they have sweat all over the darn thing for 1/2 hour. I hate it when parents talk so rudely to their children (especially on the subway) -- some woman yesterday told her kid that she was going to punch him! OMG!!! I hate it when salesladies of expensive stores are snotty to you (they size you up by what you are wearing) ... uh hello, you make like $10 an hour. I hate it when some sneezes and then touches the subway poll or something else that everyone touches. I hate when people sneeze without covering their mouth - uh hello, that's just gross!
I'll try to think of some more -- this is fun!!!

Sort of a twist of the fat ladies on the train. I hate when people who take up two seats are seated during rush hour. If you a$$ takes up 2 seats, perhaps standing for 20 minutes solid would do you good?
And equally annoying is when there is a woman who is so pregnant, you can practically see the baby crowning but all the seated pasengers just look the other way and pretend like they don't know they should be giving her their seat!

oh God Midtown.....
When people refuse to walk on the right side and everyone ends up walking into each other. Hello its a very simple concept, pretend you're a car. Or when a group of 3, 4, or more people feel they ALL need to walk in a row across the side walk. I crash right through them as if I were playing that game from childhood what was it?? Red Rover, Red Rover send Mary right over! (or something like that!) BIKES!!!!!!!!!!!! Do they not have rules??? 'cause they don't follow cars or pedestrian rules!!!!!!!!!

Another one ...
When you hold the door open for someone and they don't say 'Thank you'! I really hate that ... sometimes I just say, 'your welcome' - and they look at me funny! Oh well!

NuBride...
I HAAATTTEEE that! when people behind in line are so close they are literally breathing down your neck! I love waiting to get to a cash register or some other counter and you are next in line. Watch out if you don't move up that 1-2 feet right behind the person conducting their transaction in front of you. I can hear the huffs and puffs, and anxious dancing around like, 'Why the H^% isn't she moving up??!!' UMMMMM Hello!!!! I'm next, I don't need to climb onto this person back so that I can see then entire contents of her purse to secure my position!!! You're after me no matter what you'll get there in the same time, so don;t even try it with me!!!! LOL

You're killing me!!!
Here's another work one (just happened): why does my boss find it necessary to come track me down like I'm a dog, if I'm not at my desk, to tell me that HE JUST LEFT SOMETHING ON MY DESK FOR ME?????? Do I come track him down when the phone rings? And if I did, I'd hear all about it, wouldn't I?????
And yes, Michelle, you are not the only one -- I HATE WORK TODAY!

My mgmr does that too. I will be back so I will see your note.
What about tourist that stops in the middle of the street in the middle of traffic to look up. Sheesh can you pull to the side and do that???
I am loving it. At least I know I am not crazy.
Stef, the men act like they are sleeping. I hope I never have to ride the train when I am preggo

A little off topic here, but Sat night we went out for DH birthday, there was a wait for tables, Brandon was sitting down and a very pregnant lady walked in. My son gets up on his own and says to her you can have my seat
Made me soooo PROUD!!!!

OH JEN, I HEAR YOU ON THAT ONE!!!!!!! WHAT IS UP WITH THAT?????????? And the other thing with towels is when my wonderful hubby dries his hands and throws the towel on the sink in a crumpled ball -- HELLO, there IS a towel rack on the shower door WHERE you got it from, so what's the problem with putting it back buddy????? (He does that with the kitchen towel also -- he has a towel problem!!!)

Re: Topic for the Day 10/2/2002 What are your Pet Peeves
Lemme also mention (which i also mentioned in my otherpost) that I HATE HATE HATE when people ONLY ONLY fwd you jokes and NO 'communication' emails !! not even HELLO emails or 'that was funny' I automatically delete emails from my friends that do that ! the ones that have AOL know that I delete them, WOOPS !! too bad.
I think those days of fwddg jokes on email are SOO OVERRR !! I fwd MAYBE 1 or 2 every few months that are great. This girl at my last job, I gave her my email and soon was receiving about 8-10 emails per day from her that were all FWDS !! I emailed her to remove my name and said 'by the way, how is everything ??' ARGGG ! come on, you must have way too much free time on your hands... (.....but posting on Liweddings is PRODUCTIVE! LOL )
