Annoying things other people do

[Victor29]

Are there any silly things that other people do that get on your nerves? Things that really don't matter but just wind you up?

For instance it annoys me when people get out of a three door car and leave the seat pushed forward! Why does it matter? They will probably have to push it forward to get back in? So why does it get at me?

Also, tubs of butter or plastic milk bottles that have tops but are also sealed inside. You remove the seal and then put the tops on to keep out dirt etc. Some people only half remove the seal and leave it under the top. Why should this bother me?

Anything bother you?

I hate dawdlers in supermarkets. Your trying to do your weekly shop and these annoying hairbears make it out to be a day trip, im wizzing round me aisles like the demented demic I am and these people are like having a convo about peas in the middle of the munching aisle, and then when you asked them to move its like your the villian uuuuuuuuuuuurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggg

I haven't got any nerves left to get on!

Supermarkets - for the same reason as playme - my husband does all the shopping now - he doesn't trust me with the shopping trolley ... (and believe me - the French are much worse - they're NEVER in a rush).

Not much else bothers me unless I'm in an irritable mood - then everything my husband does bothers me...

Shop assistances chatting on the phone when they are serving you. Also the bus drivers the drive stright past when they can see you stood there waiting for a bus.

YES - that really gets to me also! I also hate it when the counter staff will all be having a merry party when you (as a customer) need to ask a question.

I also hate it when the bagger at the supermarket tells you to "have a nice day" - that is a nice thing to say, but the way they do it is:
1) no eye contact. 2) wait until you are just passing them, and 3) they say it so robotically and insincerely that you know they are required to say it and they don't give a sh*t about it.

bag boys!!!

not to be rude, but wouldn't it be easier to pack your own bags in the supermarket??

do they even pack your bags the right way???

[Wycliffe]

Snarling trolley boys! (reminds me of "they're only words")

True - it would be - most of them don't pack well anyway - my first over the table job was as a bag boy- and I was very good. Trouble is, now - I am too concerned with what the cashier is charging to take my mind off the register and to my own bagging.

I get too stressed at the store with all the people- I am constantly trying to not be in the way - yet everyone else is constantly in my way, too. So I avoid grocery shopping.

(but my French pal did say that the shoppers here were much more polite than in France )
