!!!! I sometimes wonder why they even bothered installing so many registers!!
Same goes for bank tellers!!!
Ohhh, I got a good one. . . .
It's bad enough that nowadays you call any large corporation and you never speak to an actual human being; instead, you're stuck having to push buttons which transfers you from department to department, and it takes an hour before you're actually speaking to the person that can hopefully help you out.
Now, to add to that already truly annoying task, there are some companies that FORCE you to talk about your problem to a machine, which hopefully interprets what you have to say, and sends you to the right department.
It drives me up a wall, and I refuse to do so.. . . But you have no choice, so there you are, in front of your phone, talking to a machine, which completely misunderstands a simple command like "My cell phone was cut off", and responds to you like he gives a hoot, saying he didn't understand, and if I would be so kind as to repeat my question. . . . "you can say things like "home phone", or "troubleshooting"... !!!!! Drives me nuts!
I can't wait till my cellular service ends so I never have to deal with this again!!!
First question I'll ask when I get a new phone won't be about the phone, the reception, features, or the price... it'll simply be, "do you have an automated make-believe person on the other end of the phone that I'll have to deal with when I call you with my phone problems?"
and that answer alone will decide whether or not I'll be going with that company . . . .
Ahhh, that felt pretty good. .

It reminds me of another one of mine. When someone makes a sandwich and doesn't line the bread up. Hubby will do it on purpose just to see me wig out. LOL

oooh! oooh! I thought of one! I hate teenagers my age who hate life just B/C they found out santa claus doesn't really exist and all that. they shouldn't be so cinical! I mean just B/C your parents never told don't mean crap, they didn't tell you B/C they saw the way you lighted up when you heard about santa claus or the tooth fairy, or when barney came on stage. that's not being diffrent or escaping anything, that's just being a whiny littie buttface who doesn't have the courage to face reality.
i cant stand people like that either... im a total prep! lolfishcatch22 said:
anyway, my pet peeve is when guys have long nails, when anyone chews nails, or when the peel them off and throw tham anywhere. painting nails is another one; there is a girl that acctually paints her nails during class.
