What, in general, annoys you? (2 Viewers)

That little &^%$# that comes on after the phone rings 5 times to try and tell me how to leave a *&*&^%^*$#@ phone message. STHUP you little *&^%$!!! We all know how to leave a VM at this point. If I"m president, first thing I do? A universal mandate that all phones immediately go BEEP! after 5 rings and you can leave a message.
this annoys me too. i think the phone companies do this on purpose to increase your usage.
Can't you just press 1?

Sometimes. It depends on the phone system. It's 5 at my office. If I do the same thing when trying to call my wife, I get sent off into oblivion and have to call back.
 
People who try and walk up behind other people and try passing them on an escalator.If you are in that big of a hurry or are trying to show how fit you are then take the GD stairs!!!
It's not a ride.
It is if I'm not in a hurry.
It's not a ride.
If we ever run into each other on one feel free to try to move me.
I'll make sure to have a couple of doughnuts.
 
Parents that use GIANT strollers and take them in public places with narrow walkways and proceed to walk as slow as possible. Hey your tiny underdeveloped baby doesn't need an all-terrain stroller designed by Range Rover. Are you taking that ridiculous baby rig off-road? Why is there a ski rack on top of that thing? Please leave that junk at home, along with your kid. TIA.

My big problem is with the double strollers that people have where the two kids are sitting next to one another. The thing must be a pain in the ### to maneuver around a store or anywhere else that is remotely confined. I had two babies that were near in age, but we bought a double stroller that had them front to back, not side to side, and it was infinitely easier.Now the large single strollers I don't get either. Just give me enough room to store something below (diaper bag, etc) and up top a drink or two (theirs and mine!) and all is well. If you want one of those that is great for use while jogging, then just get another for use "in public places with narrow walkways.":lmao:

Not sure if this has been mentioned....

I cannot stand the need to add "-gate" on the end of everything that is deemed a scandal.

Just recently heard some one on the radio say A-Rodgate. :popcorn:

 
maybe a honda.

How about phone queues. Press 1 for English, type in your phone number, your product number...

Then when the support person answers the phone he speaks broken English and asks for your phone and product number.

:unsure: This just goes for about everything from Directv to my local internet/phone service...just shoot me through if you are going to make me repeat it
 
Gas stations that don't have that little ridge thingy that allows you to hook the nozzle trigger thingy that enables you to pump gas hands-free.

 
The person in the 12 items OR LESS line who is way over that limit, is paying by check and obviously isn't in a hurry...

I've got wife and crying kid in the car - I rush thru the market, grab Baby food, Milk and bananas, Got my Cash ready in hand to zip thru the line and this #### ### decides he's going to wheel his cart full of #### thru the "EXPRESS LINE"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Guy probably parked in Handicap as well...

 
- Low talkers. It's bad enough that you're talking to me while sitting in another cubicle. Speak up, #######!

- Cashiers that give you your coin change on top of the bills so the change falls. Is it that hard to give me the bills and the change seperate?

 
Managers who want to met after five on the last day of the week before a long weekend.

It used to be that at this point I will agree to a vasectomy when I come back if I can just get out of here.

But now in my older wiser self I plan on making it as painful for the manager as possible.

Example: I am off Friday and Monday; so guess who has to teach a training class today after 5? This seems like the only time our plant management felt that we could get both crews from day and night shift to come together at once. Well let me tell ya, this training class is going to be the train class from HELL. I plan on

opening with an discussion with the manager about authoritatively cultivating open-source schemas that monetize team building systems which will efficiently evolve covalent testing procedures. I will then outline our data schema down to field type and connection protocol discussing each possible solution and the pros and cons of each no mater how far fetched. Then we talk about the backup systems for our data storage devices and their development over the years and any potential pitfalls that upgrades might cause , I will take this time to openly discuss the benefits of anti virus and firewall upgrades and the overall complexity of multilayer network security in a mixed environement that has user literally logging in all over the world through a multitude of means. The will then develop into a debate about the need for more robust servers and even fiberoptic replacement for our old CAT 5 wiring in our plants, which by the way we could then use TCPIP calls will all the plant and not just the newest one; those savings alone will ..............

This is going to be fun.

More often than not, the point isn't to collect any data it's to give the caller something to do while they wait on hold. The theory is that callers will be less likely to notice their long hold times if they're accomplishing pointless busy work.

"fax machine" people - I hate everything about it. I scan and e-mail everything that needs a signature to people and I expect them to do the same. Instead I get the document back in my in box, now I have to scan it again to e-file it.

There are quite a few on here that I have to agree with.

To add:

Internet tough guys

Guys who act like big tough guys when in reality they're just big fat #### ing #######.

People who tell me to do something, or not to forget to do something that I'm currently doing or have already done.

Most other drivers.

People who think they know about something just because they Googled it. #### off.

Civilians who talk bad about the military when they have no real clue.

People who log me off of my workstation so they can check their email. Hey mother ####er, get your #### beaters off my ####!

Incompetence. If you don't know how to do your job, stop asking me to do it for you, and quit.

Fastfood drivethru window attendents that don't automatically give you a drink carrier when you have like 15 ####### sodas. Yeah, I'm gonna hold those in my lap.

When my wife wears my hoodies. Look, we're not in high school anymore. Wear your own ####. I don't want to smell like a ####### princess.

I'm sure there's plenty more.

Perry... Why don't you tell us how you really feel. :lol:
 
You know what I find annoying and I'm not sure why? Calm talkers. People who sound like they are hypnotists when talking to you. I work with a sound guy who I want to punch in the face when he's talking. He's a nice guy but just something about it makes my brain want to explode. Put some emotion in your voice!
