Tiny Things That Annoy You • Page 374

Today i was at Wal Mart and it was like 8:00am and they were stocking a lot cause it wasn't busy which is fine but the workers kept cutting me off. Idk how to say it when we're walking instead of driving lol but they would like dart in front of me causing me to stop suddenly instead of just waiting 2 seconds for me to pass. I get that they're prob pressured and trying to work fast and am annoyed I'm in their way and I don't fault them for that but it happened like at least 4 times from different employees and I felt v overstimulated and uncomfortable cause my personal space felt continuously violated


Also they didn't have self check out open so I had to go to a cashier and he kept coughing into his hand and then when he scanned my protein drinks he grabbed each one by the lid with his coughed in hand and I legit died inside.

 

I have a headache that has not gone away since this morning

 

My ass would have commented on the fact he coughed in his hand and then touched my items

 

Busy intersection and the light is green for like 3 seconds

 

The Costco near me has one entrance and it literally gets so badly backup because of everyone getting gas. I nearly had an anxiety attack coming here last time on a Sunday so I avoided it but I can’t because I ran out of something so I can’t wait and omfg people are stupid af literally stopping in the middle of the drive path, lazy ass mf leaving shopping carts everywhere and people just stopping wherever they want

 

There's a guy at my gym I see sometimes and he always like talk sings/raps aloud and I can't tell if he's just trying to make everyone else leave by acting weird but I'm determined to stand my ground. But it's so weird and annoying. It's an apartment gym so no gym staff to complain to. Maybe I should start singing too and scare him off

 

I would just start belting out songs. Fuck em.

 

I know I complained about this over 100 times but why do people feel the need to blast their music from their car so loud (windows down too) for the entire city to hear. And it’s ALWAYS the same genre.

someone right now doing that shit

 

People who keep wild animals as pets. What are you doing with a fucking Racoon in your house?

 

Never getting replies to my emails at work. We earn PTO in 3 categories and are allowed a week in each and then we have to cash some out. But we are only allowed 2 holidays off a year. So am I allowed to use my holiday PTO for non-holidays or am I always going to have to cash out the extra? I just want to take Christmas Eve off without using a vacation day! But of course can't get a response!

 

He's guarding the galaxy

 

At a conference right now (snooze), and there's nothing I hate more than "networking". I cannot even feign interested in people's job, there's nothing I care about to talk about less. I'm just walking around and hiding in between sessions.

 

Haha I'm not in a networking conference, but feeling the same way about department meetings. Gotta love hearing about everyone's work anniversary and pretending like you care that Deborah has been with the company for 40 years

 

waiting for election results to come in. Really hope this shitty state does something good for once!! I’m an anxious mess!

 

Days that feel off for no reason

 

people at bookstores that choose a book to read and then sit on a stool or chair in front of the bookshelves. get the FUCK out of the way my guy

 

I avoid office gatherings and holiday party type stuff and our GM gets big mad that I never attend/take vacation those days and said that those events are now mandatory and when I asked how an after work hours gathering/party could be mandatory since it’s not work he said it is considered work because it’s “more networking than a party”.

Still waiting to hear back from HR because ain’t no fuckin’ way that’s legit and even if HR sides with him I’m still not going to attend, fuck that stuff.

 

When someone leaves me a voice note.

 

People that jump up immediately when the plane lands and grab their bags from the overhead compartments just to stand in the aisles. Sit your dumb ass down, you're not going anywhere, there's an order to this, you're just bumping into the people waiting patiently for their turn to exit.

 

Same with boarding, I'm pretty sure we all have the same destination

 

Boarding I somewhat get because there's limited overhead room above each seat for bags

 

Being in a limbo state or when someone is into you or not which probably means they're not but then sometimes they seem like it

 

Everyone who acts like DIYing is super fun is a liar. From my experience it’s watching a lot of YouTube videos, cussing a lot and always ends in crying. I’m tired and if I ever buy another house it will not be a fixer upper!!

 

I’ve shared this story elsewhere on the site I’m sure but one time I changed the blinker bulbs in my car and it was an entire weekend wasted and filled with frustration and cursing and it did not make me feel good or give me a sense of accomplishment doing that myself. Fuck it, I will gladly pay whatever extortion fee auto shops charge for that because I am not going through that again.

 

There's a reason they charge like $100/hr or more for doing that stuff because it's really hard to do well and in a reasonable time. Also just having the tools and equipment necessary to do everything adds up in cost
