Lack Of Common Sense

[CanadianChick 0]

This is a very annoying thing that happens in High School hallways: These group of chicks always stand near my locker, and when I need to get to it, I'm usually nice about it. After monthes though, it's annoying when they don't move when they know I need to get to my locker. So now, I just shove my way to my locker. One of the girls once said, "You could've said EXCUSE ME", which I always do. So I turned around and say, "Well, it's my fucking locker, it's not my fault you're in front of it."

 

Also, stupid little kids that don't understand YOU DON'T STOP TO TALK TO YOUR FRIENDS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HALLWAYS! Idiots. I think half the grade 8 and 9 who go to my school are scared of me because I always yell at these little, stupid fuckers.

 

Oh, and it's "I *couldn't* care less", not "I could care less". And it's not "It's deja vu all over again." One last one: it's not "A pivotal turning point." PICK ONE!

I'll turn it around a bit, because I get asked "Do you work here?" fairly regularly... but I don't work there. At least once every couple of weeks somebody will just come up and ask where something is or something, and there's no indication at all that I'm employed by whatever store I'm in. That happens to my dad all the time too, guess it runs in the family.

 

Less personal, but I hate people that get in an elevator and push a button that's already lit, or worse, keep pushing it like that will make it faster.

I can easily see you growing up to be that mean old lady who all the kids on the street are afraid of. Yelling at everybody, spraying kids with the garden hose for being on your property and everything.

 

How many cats you got, CC?

I'm more of a dog person, really. I'll just let my pit-bulls chase the kids down the street.

 

Rotten kids and their music...

I hate it when in my school, these loud and annoying people just stand right dead center of this intersection of hallways. People are moving to their classes, but they don't have the sense to just step near the walls or keep walking...instead they just stand there. Also, just the other day, 5 girls were walking side by side and I was right behind them. Side by side...they blocked the entire hall. They're lucky one of them was hot...

Should of just pushed over one of the ugly ones....

Well it's a bit late now.

[Guest Cerebus]

Me and my fiance are moving together when she graduates in May. We'll be combining everything and we have about a week to discuss it since she's here at my house for her spring break. Yet...she is pouring over the wedding that will be in July and poo-pooing all the shit we need to do to move in together.

 

"Do we need white invitations with gold trim or blue invitations with green trim??"

 

[Nighthawk 0]

poo-pooing all the shit

Ha ha.

[Guest Bottled Black]

Back when I used to work in the Supermarket, I hated either

A) when I'm standing in front of the egg display with a huge stack of eggs next to me but the case is empty because i was cleaning the rack, someone comes up to me and asks, "You don't have any more eggs?" Now the eggs from the rack were right next to me. OPen your damn eyes. My response was usually "No we sold out"

or

B) When packing out Orange Juice and standing next to a big sign that said "Tropicana On Sale 1.99", then the morons proceed to ask me "Which Juice is on sale?" Oh I'm sorry the sign the size of your head wasn't big enough? A typical response was "Minute Maid"

[Guest drdrainoscott]

How about this kid in my class today that asked what "etc." was. How do some people get into college?

[Guest Cerebus]

poo-pooing all the shit

Ha ha.

pun not intended (though looking back now I'm wondering how in the hell I wrote that...)

By not knowing what "etc." is.

 

 

 

 

I'm really down on people who park too close to the lines in parking lots, so I have to either park like them to keep the pattern going, or have them ram my car with their door. Bastards.

[Kahran Ramsus 0]

When I was up working near a provincial park campground, every summer the Friday night of either the Canada weekend or the Civic Holiday weekend people would come in with their cars and trailers, etc asking where to make reservations for the campground. This despite the fact that those weekends are booked full 3 years in advance. One would think that a good time to find out would not be at 10:00 PM Friday night on the long weekend.

 

At least once a week some Americans would ask (fully serious) where they could go snowmobiling/downhill skiing...in July!

 

I would also get Americans asking how to get to Toronto, which would generally be two hours back the direction from which they came.

 

And finally, the #1 pet peeve that would happen several times a day during weekends in the summer, Americans wanting to pay for everything in American funds and get American change back, and then get pissed when you tell them that we have different currency.

I hate in school how it seems that every day there's always several spots where there's a crowd of like 9 kids and none of them will fucking move! Christ, there will be a good 3 or 4 in the middle, everyone else is maneuvering around them including myself and hoping not to smack head on into a person coming from the opposite direction. Usually I purposely shove the person hard with my shoulder to drive the point to move. Another thing is when I get hit by somebody and they don't say anything. I got shoved by a guy passing me, barely grazed this black girl standing beside a classroom door just chatting with her friends who promptly shoved me full force with both hands and nearly sent me to the ground. I mean, what the fuck? Damn...

 

Another thing I hate are the assholes who show up to class without doing homework and basically doing jack the whole class period. If you're going to fail the class on purpose and not put in any effort then don't come to the class! It really isn't that hard. Also people who come ridiculously late to classes drive me up the fucking wall. I'll see them in the hallway like 5 minutes prior to class just chatting with friends, then see them show up 5 minutes late. The hell? Quit talking to your friends or god forbid, save it until after the damn class and get there on time so ya don't disrupt the teacher and cause him to have to repeat shit that I've heard 3 times already.

 

Great, now I'm all pissed

[Papacita 0]

Whenever I go to the drive-thru at a McDonald's or something and they mess up the order. Especially when the clerk (or whatever you call those people who work the window) makes you repeat the order like 5 or 6 times before they finally get it right. Then after you get your food, and you're driving away, you look in the bag and see that after all the trouble they put you through, they still end up giving you the wrong thing.

 

I also *HATE* when you get a soda or whatever and they forget to give you a straw.

[ant_7000 0]

I hate the "Do you work here" questions when have a shirt and a name tag on. Oh I hate when I lend my assistance to a customer thats been in that department for a while decline my assistance and then 5 minutes later ask for help. I hate at the mall when people walk slow right in front of me when I rushing to get somewhere. When I used to ride the bus all time when other people want to get off they pull the string way before their stop, or they'll pull on the while the bus is on FUCKIN FREEWAY like the bus driver is going to stop and drop them off.

 

People who go out in public and they stink so bad, Its funny when someone tells the person that they stink, the stinky feels so bad, others think its cruel, I say if you don't want to be made fun of, you should've took a shower this morning.

I picked up two more at work tonight that I'd like to share.

 

I'm working in the music and movies department again tonight, and this one lady brings like six DVDs up to the counter like she's ready to check out...and then she decides she needs to start reading them to see what they're about. Including the one that she asked me to help her find. She keeps reading, and now her friend's waiting for her, and someone else lines up behind her, so I've got this line forming because some woman can't make up her mind what she wants before she checks out. Finally her friend goes, "Can you just ring me out already", which finally got the woman to make some sort of decision. Is it really that difficult to know what you want before you try to check out?

 

The other one seems like a simple mistake. I don't know how many customers come into the store and accidentally buy the edited versions of CDs. And I can see it as a simple mistake, particularly if you're in a hurry. "Oh, cool, the Eamon CD, I'll take it." But not only did this one woman come in today upset that she bought an edited version of the CD and asked "Well, there's no way to tell the difference." Um...see these two CDs? This one says "clean" on the price tag. This one has the parental advisory label in the corner. It's not that fucking hard.

[Guest Bottled Black]

Something I don't understand is the people that go to McDonalds/ Burger King/etc. Order a Biggie Size (RIP) Meal with a Diet Coke.. What the hell? You're eating fast fucking food a diet soda isn't going to help you keep off the weight.

Hey, get off my case. I have every right to be a lazy prick. This is America, not Nazi-Germany. (Funny thing is I still passed all my classes)

I hate these kind of dick mongrols. Lucky i'm a patient person...if I'm in a good mood.

 

Also people who pay with a credit card for like $3 worth of shit, holding up the line because they are too fucking poor to bust out 3 bills with George Washingtons face.

Some people find regular sodas to be too sweet.

What if the person looks to be weighing in at 350+ pounds?

[The Metal Maniac 0]

Maybe they think that regular soda is too sweet, and happen to be fat too.

[Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes]

Hmm...diabetic people who weigh close to 400 pounds...hard to imagine that.

[Guest BDC]

Here's one for you, and a good reason I'll never work in a grocery store again.

 

I'm standing there by my stupid register wearing that stupid vest and cleaing that stupid scanner when someone pushes a cart up. Filled with chips. Not regular sized bags, but a whole damn cart filled with FUN SIZE bags that are all mixed up. So it was either scan one at a time or spend fifteen minutes rooting them all of one kind out while Bucktooth and Snaggletooth stood there looking at me all pissed off.

 

Another in the same vein. I'm standing there at aisle one. EVERYONE comes to aisle one when there are SEVEN AISLES OPEN. I have seven idiot people in line at my register while the other lanes are empty with every indicator that they're open. Even SUGGEST that they go to another lane and apparently you've offended their dignity. I had this fun little experience of being cussed out for suggesting they go to a lane with no waiting.

More reasons I hate working in a grocery store...but I gotta pay somee bills while I brown nose my way to the top in 5 years.

[Guest Agent of Oblivion]

I see a few people here complaining about people who speed while driving. Get out of the fucking way, then.

I thought of an old one. I use to be a supervisor at this store where I ran the hardware, molding and interior/exterior door section.

 

The steel doors and oak doors are already built onto a frame. Carrying these things are a bit awkward. You rest one side of the frame on your forearm and hold it near your upper chest and shoulder while using your other hand to hold the other side over your head. The steel doors aren't bad once you get use to the weight. Even the full view glass doors. But the oak doors are friggen heavy no matter what and should be common sense when you see someone carrying one.

 

Now imagine me, 5' 10" 170lbs walking and carrying this 6 foot, heavy and awkward looking oak door over my head and a costumer coming up to me and asking "Can I ask you something about this item?" or "how much is this?" and shoving an item in my face.

 

I always wanted to say, "Sure, you hold this fuckin' door for a second while I look at the back of your gallon of paint can since you can't fuckin' read!"

[Guest stardust]

People who have to stand there at my register and balance their checkbook piss me off, especially when there's a line of like four or five customers behind them.

 

Oh, and people who get pissed off at me for asking for their ID on a credit card. Hey, they would thank me if their damned card ever got stolen, but for some reason some people just do not understand the concept of only being able to use a credit card that has their name on it.

[Addy 0]

Parents that let their kids run around the store. Fucking kids keep running into me...
