1. People not flushing the toilet
SERIOUSLY, is it that hard to push down on a freaking handle!?
This is especially disgusting when you’ve gone #2.
Push it down once, and put some back into it!! A light tap won’t do anything.
2. Faux Online Customer Service
Companies who boast online customer care services, who basically email you back with an answer that says to call them.
Umm hello? The whole point of ONLINE Customer Care and emailing, is so I don’t have to freaking call you.
Have it or don’t, but make sure you follow through with your promise.
3. People who flash their signal for half a second on the highway, and then cut you off
I didn’t even have a chance to see you signal, and who’s to say I wasn’t about to accelerate?
Give me a bit more notice and I’ll pull back!
4. People who cut in line.. anywhere.
I hate the people who speed up on the other lane, only to cut in at the end of the ramp just to beat the rest of us polite folk who are slowly lining up to turn left or right.
You are not smart.
You’re a rude, inconsiderate fils de pute.
I also don’t like people who cut in line just because they know a friend of a friend of a friend who is closer to the front.
Unless you were there beforehand, GO TO THE BACK OF THE LINE!!!
5. People who use half a tree in paper towels just to dry their plates or utensils
I see this ALL the time, so much so, it’s making me cringe.
I don’t want to (and feel awkward) saying anything because I am Canadian, and am not their colleague, or even acquaintance.
But is it so painful to let them air dry?!
Our society is so full of germaphobes, I’m wondering how we’re going to survive if we keep cleaning everything in sight.
#1 is nasty. We have signs up at work reminding (the females at least) to flush the toilet so as not to 'offend' anybody.
I don't think the signs are up in the men's bathrooms (or the men don't read them / pay attention to them) because at least once a month we'll get a mass e-mail from one of the male workers ranting about ppl not flushing.
Gross, yes, but I don't need to know about it!!!
Yea what is it with people not flushing toilets, especially at work? I can't believe people are that lazy, ugh and its worse when you know its your co-workers. Ugh. I live in the U.S. but we let our dishes air dry, we do buy paper towels but its for clean up.
Excellent choices. The first is just nasty though I just about spit out my coffee when I read "put some back into it:" LOL
Some of the things you listed are also some of my pet peeves. But for the record, I am one of those germophobes…I can't help it, I just am.
Haha, I've encountered all this weekend. I despise those folks who flash their blinker for a second…it's like, you're supposed to use your blinker BEFORE you change lanes, not while you're cutting someone off to take the edge off the fact that your CUTTING ME OFF! Oh yeah, and that space I left was for my safety – not for you to cram yourself in between!
The germophobes drive me nuts. Its like the new Kleenex bathroom hand towels they make. Like people haven't been using hand towels for centuries in their bathrooms. All of a sudden it's "not clean" or "sanitary"? What's up with that?!
Some fat jerks cut in front of us while we were waiting in line to rent our DVDs. Everyone just kind of lets the next person in line go when a random clerk says, "I can help who's next" and the guys just cut in front of us. Like, blantantly walked right in front. Funny this was, was their clerk had phone duty too, so we got out before they did! Guess it pays to be patient.
