Things you could do to piss me off today

  1. If you're the doctor's receptionist, sigh loudly when I say Jake can only come at 11.30 or noon on Wednesday. I know I should just let my son cut school like everyone else.
  2. Scratch the side of your nose and then use that hand to TOUCH THE MEAT YOU'RE BAGGING FOR ME.
  3. Look at me as if I've grown another head when I ask to see the manager so I can complain about the hygiene standards.
  4. Stop suddenly in front of me, in the middle of the footpath.
  5. Expect me to apologise for bumping into you.

If none of these suggestions appeal, wait till next week when I'm premenstrual - then breathing within spitting distance of me will be enough to piss me off.

And I do spit.

How annoying. I hate it when people serving food wear gloves but then handle money with their gloved hands... what's the point?

You've touched on a couple of pet peeves of mine as well. Let it all out girl LOL. I never used to aske to speak to the manager but now I have no hesitation.

Oh, don't forget people eating near you (at foodcourts etc) who cough or sneeze and don't cover their mouth, gotta love that one too.

Isn't it always the way that once you are pissed off over something you start to notice that everything else is working against you for the rest of the day. Hope tomorrow is better for you Sue.

Lol - I had that 'stop in front of me and expect me to apologise' one today - I think people should get out of the way of heavily pregnant women with 2 squirming yelling toddlers in a big pushchair, don't you? :-)

People suck sometimes!

oh yeah, the foot path thing sucks big time... like when 3 people walk super sloww & take up the whole footpath & u try to move past them & they seem to move with u & ruin my power walk....

Have a better day tomorrow, or if not give us another list as I am sure it helps to vent and we can all relate to these incidents.

Oh yeah, number 4 and 5. Living in NYC, this happens all the time. And it's not always the tourists, either. Often, it's some jackass on a cellphone.

Hahahahaha......thanks for that good giggle, I totally agree with you on ALL of these. What is up with people??????
Hope your having a better day.

Fantastic. I think we are all becoming very brave as our 'fat shields' are discarded. I actually told a girl to change her gloves after she picked up money from the floor. She seemed to think it was OK then to serve me with those same gloves. To her credit she did without so much as a raised eyebrow.

P.S. I am not coming anywhere near you next week LOL

Oh dear, I'm almost scared to leave a comment just in case I piss you off! Hope people suddenly realise that they are jerks and get out of your way when they see you coming this week.
