One of my biggest and I don’t think I have seen it mentioned….

I hate seeing people leave their shopping carts next to their cars in the parking lot. Or prop it up on the curbing/landscape area. It being MUCH, MUCH too difficult for them to walk it to a cart return or back into the store…. Probably the same people who ***** about a cart ding….

People if you can’t manage your speed use the cruise control.
That is a good one and bothersome…. More so, because I feel self conscious that their passengers may feel like I am the offender. If on the open road, I use speed control….ALWAYS.

Cigarette smokers chain smoking in the shop. They buy a pack, sit down, and chain smoke the ****ing thing for an hour, leave their empty package and mess for me to clean up. Granted it's my job to clean up, but most people have the common courtesy of disposing of their own trash and I take care of wiping the table and ashtrays.

Sick. I hope they are using different ashtrays other than what the cigar smokers are using. I hate the smell of cigarettes and cigarette butts

Nah, same ashtrays. I empty them when they leave and spray and wipe them down with Windex and a rag.

Don't sell cigarettes when you are working. See how I solved that for you? When you come on shift, quit selling the products that annoy you when they are consumed in the lounge your employer provides. Remove them at the beginning of your shift. Tell those asking that you don't sell those. Put them back when your shift ends.
If your employer objects to that, you have a couple choices, suck it up, Buttercup, whinge on about it, or get that resume sharpened up for another part time job at a tobacconist that doesn't dig the ciggy smoke.


Wait... nevermind.

People that are in too much of a hurry to stop at a stopsign, pull out right in front of you even though there is nobody behind you, and then drive 10 mph under the speed limit.

Groups of bicyclists that don't ride single file and don't obey the rules of the road. Drives me freaking crazy.

And at least every couple of years, never fails, a car plows through a big group of them and a bunch of people get hurt bad or killed. Then they all say the same thing, we were all single file, obeying traffic rules,blah, blah, blah. Yeah, right. I see what you do every day.

I almost ran over an old man this morning because he tried to come flying across the street from the sidewalk while I was YIELDING, not STOPPING, to merge into oncoming traffic. Dude looks at me like I did something wrong. Uh, when you're on the sidewalk, you yield to moving traffic. Jackazz.

All depends on the situation.

Of course bikers should follow traffic laws.... In the end, there are just as many jerk drivers and cyclist. The Earth is covered with idiots, they use all sorts of transportation. Hating all cyclists is like hating all drivers....

I find it hard to believe that a driver who plows through a group of cyclists wasn't the one breaking traffic laws.... Guess it could happen, I just can't picture the situation....

People who post things like ASAP and URGENT on such trivial things that don't need to be tended to immediately.
