1. People who leave their "garage sale" signed nailed up to telephone poles and trees. No one comes and removes them for you. I have been tempted to and then leave them on the front stoop.

2. People in a drive thru who don't pull up all the way to make room for those behind them.

Spelling mistakes drive me up a wall! I hate to say it, but most of them are on this site!

Advice/advise
to/too/two
your/you're
ridiculous/rediculous

and my two new favorites:

Adieu/Ado

and

Walla/Voila

The word is ado (without further ado)

and

there is no such word as walla! It's voila!

Crowded stores with long lines and if that's not bad enough the person in front of you takes 200 hours to find their cc/cash and then 300 hours to put all their stuff back into their purse/wallet and don't even have the consideration of moving over to the side.Chat Icon

Unsolicited advice...yes my almost 2 year old has a pacifier and I don't need to hear that she shouldn't have it...I'm sure she won't be walking down the aisle at HS graduation with it..Chat Icon

Obnoxious chewers...I don't need to hear or see your breakfast/lunch/dinner/snack...chew with your mouth closed!!! (I see so much of this and it is so annoying)

Co-workers who insist on having a loud conversation right in front of my desk or in their office with the door wide open...I don't need to know confidential stuff or your business...you won't believe how many times we have heard stuff that we shouldn't have heard. Chat Icon

I get the teenagers using that cryptic lingo but when a 34 year old mother of two writes in those cryptic dat waz da bomb on FB or text message..seriously...grow up...use proper english.

People who come to work with tight asss clothes that shouldn't be wearing anything tight to begin with. I have a co worker who is heavy and has a huge ole belly (no she's not pregnant) and she always has the spandex shirts and too small and tight clothes...I'm constantly seeing crack and some skin which is not attractive. She also makes $$$ and shops like she drops apparently not in the correct size.

I'm sure I'll find more as the day goes on Chat Icon

Totally agree, people who don't rsvp to an invite drive me insane! I give them the benefit of the doubt the first time in case it was just circumstance but if it happens more than once, they never get an invite again! My fav were the ones who didn't respond to our wedding invite! Lovely.

It's "i COULDN'T care less" implying you care so little that it's impossible for you to care any less.

People that refer to me as "sweetie", "honey", "hun", "babe", etc. What makes people think that they can call me by those names? Plus, it can really come off as condescending. I have a name and I will gladly tell you what it is if you don't know it!

1. Don't ask my advise then not take it or dismiss it...ie,



To add to this....you asked for my opinion, I gave it to you. I am not looking for a debate.

Just admit you made a mistake, offer to fix it and let's move on. It will save a heck of a lot of time and I will respect you more for it.

If you are invited to a party and there is an RSVP, pick up the freaking phone! Call me when you know I won't be home and leave a message if you don't want to talk.

Handicapped parking spaces exist for a reason and that doesn't include close proximity to stores and restaurants for lazy azzes.

Office Birthday celebrations....

When someone takes it upon themselves to buy someone a cake for the "office" and then asks everyone for $2.50 a slice...Chat Icon

Office....

When you (the receptionist) asks a coworker (the licensed worker) to help a customer and they give me a blank stare like "how dare you ask me to do my job"

When coworkers don't return customers calls, and the customer yells at you for it.

When coworkers whisper to eachother for 20 minutes.

When coworkers let the phone ring more than 3 times.

When coworkers say "I'm so backed up" then call every member of their family to brag about their grandchildren.

the list could go on for hours....

One more....

When people get so waisted at a weddings that they begin to offend guests and the waitstaff...
