People who are rude to cashiers Rude cashiers Those who think that their opinion is right and yours is wrong Those who make a big deal over trifles Those who cannot read a label, so that I have to point to 3 breads before I figure out wtf they're talking about and they yell at me because somehow its my fault The new cashier who I trained and now tells me I'm working too slow b/c I'm doing the extra work the manager asked me to do I can't stand alot of ppl and if I had the choice I would put them all on an uninhabited island...I need a really large island, perhaps I should use Jupiter or Mars instead...

Parking lot prima donnas
People who can't park their car between the lines. I work in a building with parking garage that is occasionally filled to capacity, so it's extra irritating to see some self-centered chump's car sprawled across into the spot next to it. As if they deserve a more comfortable entry and exit by having an additional foot or two free on either side of their car. As if it was natural that their manner of parking must inherently create an inconvenience for the next person looking for a space in that lot.
I however am an agent of Karma. My job is to refocus the inconvenience they have created so that it affects them alone. However my car is a bit smaller than most, and of late I have had much practice in backing into such reduced spaces in such a way that my car ends up neatly between the lines and their driver's door ends up with about two inches of space for available opening and closing. It's a bit like making a little art project every week or two on my way into the office. Sometimes I take a quick picture with my cellphone, as trophy. Only once have I had to face the other driver. I work late a lot, so usually the other car is gone bythe time I leave. (I assume they climb in through the passenger-side door.) But one day I came to my car and saw I really big guy standing near my car and the only other car in the lot, clearly his. When I say big, I mean wide. No way was he getting between those cars, and it was highly unlikely that he was going to climb in via the passenger door either. He just stood back where I'm sure he couldn't help but notice that my car was parked reasonably and his was parked like a drunk 2-year-old had been behind the wheel. It was all clear, nothing needed to be said. I just got into my car and drove away. I've forgotten what he was driving, but I bet he parks more carefully now. The building security people have told me that people who can't park reasonably will be towed, but a) that seems excessive; b) then I'd have to wait for the tow truck to vacate that least spot; c) that just escalates from a parking problem (minor inconvenience) to a towed-car problem (exorbitant fees, major hassles). And besides, it seems so impersonal. |

I live in a very nice part of town on quite a fashionable shopping street, but for some reason there is a disgusting amount of dog poo on the pavement. Personally I think it's old ladies who get too tired to walk their dogs to the park at the end of the road, and have never learned to carry poop-scooper bags. I also think I am being targeted by the same dog as it seems rather coincidental that it's right outside my flat so often A friend came for dinner the other night and tramped some right up my front steps. I couldn't really blame him (and at least he noticed before coming in). DISGUSTING There, I told you not to get me started.

That is why you carry bags and pick it up. Think for a second.

Well that'd be a reasonable assumption except that it'd also be reasonable to assume that all the dog owners on this site would pick up their own dogs crap.
