I agree with the first three but don't get bothered if a shop assistant asks if I want a carrier bag. Some shop assistants who I know have told me that they have to follow a set of instructions which includes asking customers if they want a bag even if they know that the person doesn't and it irritates the assistants more than it does me.

car drivers that hurtle around country roads  and straddle the  central white line,as they come around a bend, how many times have  i been obliged to  head sharply for the  nearest hedge?

 

all these drivers are collectively know as twats.

 

people  who are intent on walking  into you, rather than  feeling the need to alter  course to let anyone past, why are they so desperate to walk  next the shop window at all  times? what do they know that I don't?

 

these people are collectively known as prats.

 

All service companies all the time, especially those ones that have farmed their 'customer care' out to foreign lands.They maybe very nice people that answer your call, but totally ineffective in actually doing anything about it.

I also hate these companies because they hide,  they make certain you are unable to contact them directly, unless you contact their sales department, they fix the 'contact us'  options with  and email address that only gives you options to talk about what they want you to talk about and phone numbers  that never get you thru to the place you want to go.or they helpfully have some  image of ' sandra' who is available to answer your query, be warned 'sandra ' does not exist, all she has is a list, and it's not a very helpful list.

I stick with calling their sales departments now.

 

these companies are collectively known as a********s

Aimee, I agree with the sales calls, I rarely answer my house phone these days because of sales calls.  In fact, people stopping me in the street trying to sell me stuff annoys me, even more so if they persist after I have said 'no thanks'.

 

This roundabout annoys me, well not the roundabout itself, but the many morons who have no bloody idea how to use it and have obviously got no concept of lane discipline.

 

(ignore the A marker on the map, that was just so I could get an immediate close up of the roundabout)

People that ring our office and try to blame 'the girl in the office'.  I had one this week, who insisted his colleague had rang an order in on Monday, when I couldn't find any record of the order I asked who he spoke to 'the girl in the office'.  How much did I enjoy telling him that I am the only female in the company and unfortunately I hadn't been in the office at all that day?  

 

Certain days of the month everything and everyone annoys me 

Cinds

Shop assistants who ask with a scowl if you want the receipt, you say no, then find you have to take something back but wont get cash back as you have no receipt 

Drivers who dont indicate 

Waiting in a queue at a supermarket for ages, then they open an other checkout and its like the Grand National  

PPI adverts, are there anyone left on the planet who dont know yet !! 

Thats it for now

It would take all day to put trivial things that piss me off LOL!  But I do have a few..  Are you sitting comfortably: I moan a lot, so this may be a lengthy post!

 

I do get so so so pissed off with walking around my local shopping centres and getting CONSTANTLY hounded by people trying to sell me stuff ...  like lovefilm or kitchens or windows or something.  AND I get sick of CHUGGERS and people constantly begging.  How much money do these people think we all have?  

 

And also several shopping centres seem to have these little stupid eyebrow bars now, and they try and stop me EVERY time I go past. I live 15 minutes walk from our closest shopping centre, and work near there and I go every day, and they see me every day...  and yet they constantly bug me.  So this one time, last year, I snapped and said 'NO, I am NOT interested!'  It was the 20th time in 2 months they had tried to stop me, and I was pissed off with it.  Ever since then, the woman who runs it gives me a filthy look if I meet her stare LOL!

 

And then there are people stopping me to see if I want to claim for an injury or accident or PPI claims.  They piss me off too.

 

And queues in supermarkets etc that go down fast, when MY queue doesn't move!

 

On telly, I am SICK of seeing payday loans and PPI ads on there too, and that stupid woman's stupid face on the break of Jeremy Kyle, the cheeky bingo or whatever.

 

I am SICK of Jeremy Kyle with the same 6 or 7 phrases and the SAME kind of people on there week in week out..  Because of work, I don't see it all the time, and don't watch it as much as usual, but because other people in the house have it on, I end up having to constantly hear 'I'm just a old man...'  'well well well!' 'put something on the end of it,' 'those all important lie detector tests...' yada yada.  And wil someone tell me WHY it's always the same kind of people on there?  I'm not gonna say; people KNOW the type I mean...  Can JK only cope with people of below average intellect?

 

And I also get annoyed by the assistants asking if I want any bags when I have got 80 items in my trolley.  I feel like saying "Nah, I will juggle the shopping all the way to the car!"  And when is say I don't have a loyalty card at tesco, some old busybody at the till says 'oh what are you like?'  I just don't want you nosey bastards having a record of what I buy!  THAT is why I don't have one and why I pay with cash!

 

Tesco dotcom employees, shopping for the people on the internet.  They are so RUDE.  I have been shoved out of the way by them many times.

 

Rude old people!  The 60 to 80 age group (especially women) seems to be the rudest generation out there!

 

I also hate random spam calls, and we have actually had to change our number recently, as when we changed our number, 18 months ago, (in Nov 2010,) our service provider had given us a number that someone had let go of only a week before... (when they changed THEIR number.) We found this out many many months later.  Well for several months, we kept getting people asking for Sue, Laura, Dave and so on, and they REFUSED to believe that they were not on this number.  They said 'we spoke to her last week on this number!'  We just ended up hanging up on them!

 

THEN after 4 or 5 months, loads of debt collectors kept calling, and also refused to believe that these people were not on this number.  It didn't stop, and one company after another rang this number for the past year, no matter how many times we said 'this is OUR number not THEIRS!'  The phone company said that the debt collectors would have it as their last contact, but they told ME that this girl they were chasing gave them our number in January 2012!  So she was still giving this out as her number!  

 

So last week we threw in the towel and changed it.  We are giving it nobody now and are just using it for outgoing calls and have got a number block on it, so our number does not get shown, and we are giving our mobile numbers out for people to contact us.  The TPS were useless actually, as we reported the debt collectors and people doing surveys, and they said that they can only stop people trying to sell stuff.

 

Sorry, went on a bit there.

That annoys the piss out of me when I am standing waiting 10 mins and then someone stands in the queue behind me....then a shop assistant comes along and says to the person BEHIND ME to come to the other checkout!!  They've only been there a minute and they get served quicker!!

Ells

Mobile phones are another one of mine, why do people need to sit on the bus  telling ALL of us that they are on the bus, really do people need to phone their friends to tell them that, my daughters phone bleep every second 

 

Shop assistants talking to each other when they are serving you

 

People parking over my driveway gates 

 

Oh and clingfilm, why does it never work properly

AARRRGGGHHHH!!  My boyfriend is noisy at everything!!  Eating, drinking...even BREATHING!!  If I'm in a mood and he comes in eating something I have to put my headphones on otherwise I'll end up screaming at him that he's being noisy.

 

It's not his fault though, his sinuses are effed up so he makes a lot of noise just breathing but jeepers it doesn't half wind me up!

Here goes

 

People who ask you if you want to sit in the mobility impaired seat on the bus when it's obvious that of course you as a mobility impaired person would want to sit there.

 

Standing in a supermarket queue (which I struggle to do) only to find another shop assistant opens another checkout as there's a mother and baby in the queue behind you  so it's OK to open another checkout for a mother and a child who is safe and sound in a buggy but it's OK to let the disabled person continue to wait even though standing is difficult 

 

bad manners - people who eat with their mouth open or stick knives with food in their mouth.  People who cough and don't put their hand over their mouth and even worse, sneeze and have no hankie 

 

psychic friends who phone me very early when I'm having a lie-in and then say I'm sorry if I've disturbed you

 

Lycra louts and people who jump red lights or don't wait for you to cross a zebra fully before zooming past you

People on the school run who look as though they've spent 3 hours getting ready and give you the death stare if you dare to not have the latest trend on or *shock horror* don't have any make up on.  I don't think they realise that people LIKE not wearing make up and feel ok without it.  Stupid bints.

 

People who let their kids be rude to other people. 

 

People who never ever speak to you on facebook then you get the chat box popping up saying 'how's you hunni.....could you take a wee second to vote for X and Y in that wedding competition?'  No, piss off!

 

People calling me missus.....'Hello missus, how's you?'   STOP!!

Oooh yeah! And people who moan and then when given advice/solutions come up with a gazillion reasons why it wouldn't possibly work and how they are better off just wallowing in their misery! (slght paraphrasing...)

 

And grass that grows.

Oh the eating thing does my head in.   We've a guy at work who insists on eating sweets all the time, and his mouth waters.. and he chews with his mouth open with full on smacking sounds.    This is the lesser of the evils though.. he also spits when he talks...if he comes near my desk I cover my cuppa and it's not the first time I've had to go and wash my arms when he's been looking at my computer screen and spitalking to me.  *shudders*

Kaffs

People who have a mobile glued to their ear while driving, even when negotiating a busy roundabout!

 

People in my area who casually toss their empty beer/soft drink can onto the pavement or worse into the local canal. Some of the idiots will actually throw whole carrier bags of rubbish into the canal or when driving will just throw bags or individual items of rubbish out of the window

I once picked up a plastic bottle thrown into my path by a driver and said 'excuse me, you dropped this' Probably because he had his kids in the back, he smiled through gritted teeth and took it back
