Your pet peeves today, or anything else that has pissed you off

Re: Your pet peeves today, or anything else that has pissed you off

  • I cannot stand it when someone posts about another post and they don't link it.  I mean really?  I'm supposed to "go look on ML" and find wtf you're referring to?  Hello some boards move really fast.
  • That my prof cancelled class tonight...which means we have to make it up--the only time we can usually do that without conflicts are Friday nights or Saturday mornings

    :/

  • I also cannot stand posts that are super long that are not in paragraphs.  It's not that complicated to insert a hard return people.
  • I hate getting in the elevator and knowing that some slowass is behind me and then when I get in they start shouting "hold it!" - dude there are FIVE other elevators you lazy fock.

    Joy - that would bug me too.

  • When a work order that someone turns into me is "rush"!

    "Hey Melissa I need this turned super quickly cause its going out in like 5 mins".....yeah well if you didnt lolly gag everyday and actually do your work, you could have turned this order in last week you asshat!!

    Like their jobs are the only important RUSH josb in the whole building!!!

    and I swear....about 9 out of 10 people do NOT use their turn signals in Portola Hills/Trabuco Canyon...I dont know if its some kind of anti-blinker cult or something..but it drives me batty!!!!

  • whiny people that b*tch and moan about everything... just sayin'

    Stick out tongue 

  • I can't stand it when I am dictating a letter or document and the typist assumes I am going to say a word so she types it without me saying it.  DO NOT DRAFT FOR ME.  Bc it wastes time having to ask her to go back and erase and redo.
  • General ex-H antics. Same $hit, different day.

    Spending all day waiting for work emails and having little else to do.

    The neighbors on the street behind us who are rebuilding their house... it's raining, there's no need for construction crews to be on your property at 7am!

    I didn't know people still dictate letters. Isn't it faster for you to just type it yourself??

  • I hate that people don't know basic trafic laws - like you are supposed to STOP when the red lights on the school bus flash. Almost got rear ended because the guy behind me didn't know/care/pay attention, and he wasn't even visible when I originally stopped he was that far behind me Super Angry

    I hate when people don't do their job, and then get defensive when you try to help/explain to them what they are supposed to do

    I am pissed that I am now not allowed to drink for at least another 10 days, not that I have the points anyway...

    This sounds frustrating (and inefficient). I hope this is not the same person who refused to answer the telephone.

    I was being a little of a control freak and peering over her shoulder.  The Dragon program types it in for me as I dictate but my little microphone isn't working.  I don't have to talk as slow when I use that.  I will also only dictate assignments to staff because it's quicker than telling them and then waiting for them to write it all down in front of me.

    I'm a big fan of free stuff too but I draw the line at people embarrassing themselves in front of our CIO/CFO just to get a free cookie out of it

  • I'm not really peeved or po'd, but I'm feeling a little sad right now. One of the attorneys in our office was killed in a car accident this morning on her way to work. She has twin girls that are pretty young, maybe 2 or 3. This is the second time in four years that this has happened and the one today was actually good friends with the one that has passed previously. It's just all so sad.

  • I'm waiting for my husband to get home so he can take me to the hospital. I've had lockjaw and a fever above 102 for over 12 hours. At first I thought it was the flu but I'm worried I could have tetanus. Crying
  • Oh my!! H+P that DOES sound like tetnus!
