Normally my teachers don't even tell us to raise our hands.... We have open floor to say the answer, unless he calls on someone specific.

Pedestrians who walk against a red light.
Pedestrians who cross on a yellow light when there's not enough time to get across the street before it turns red.
Pedestrians who stand in the middle of the intersection instead of staying on the curb so drivers can make turns.
Red light runners.
Double parkers
Tailgaters -
People talking on cell phones ANYWHERE - while driving, walking down the street, in elevators :eek:, in the grocery store :o , in a movie :mad:
People who wear back packs and are not aware of how much room that thing takes up on their backs -- I've been hit many times by unconscious back-pack wearers.
SUV's who park in the "compact only" parking spaces.
Those REALLY BRIGHT headlights that blind you at night or people who don't get their headlights adjusted so one is glaring right into my rear-view mirror.
People who don't know the rules of the road. In California it is legal to make a right hand turn at a red light (if it's safe). It's also legal to make a left-hand turn at a red light if it's safe and if you're on a one-way street turning into a one-way street.
People who don't use their turn signals when they drive.
Can you tell I'm a commuter? :rolleyes: :p
People who don't know the difference between their, there and they're; it's and its; to, too and two; are, hour and our; know and no, lose and loose .... etc.
I hate that too. I'm very concious of my backpack, always putting it between my feet while on the train or bus.Quote:

I hate umbrellas!!!!! Or rather stupid people with stupid umbrellas. I don't know how many times I've almost had my eye poked out by someone with an umbrella. Personally if it's raining get wet! You're not made of sugar. Too bad if it ruins your hair-do it's raining that's what happens!
*phew* I think I have issues, LOL
crumbs in the butter--when someone butters their toast and sticks the knife back into the butter
pedestrians walking against the light
people whistling
I am also a server, and when that guy in the suit can't put his phone down long enough for me to get his order, then waves frantically as soon as he's ready for me--drives me nuts
people who don't return calls
people who complain about prices at work, and still buy the item they argue about--a lady came in the other day for soup--she told me over and over how she couldn't believe we charged $3.75 for a bowl of soup--then she bought it anyway:rolleyes:
coworkers who can't understand the concept of teamwork
this one is so silly, but it drives me nuts when my neighbors don't bring their garbage cans in--the trash collectors come on Monday morning around 8, and some people will leave their trash cans by the curb until Wednesday or Thursday
--I know there are more, I just can't think of any more right now!!
Yeah!!!! I'm with you on this one. You must work where I work.Quote:

Here's another one:
Women who put on makeup and drive at the same time :mad: :mad:
I think many of us could get together an write a best selling novel on all the crap that servers put up with. That is probably one of the biggest pet peeve starting jobs!
I have actually thought of that--earlier in the summer I started keeping a journal of annoying things customers did--people never cease to amaze me!!!!Quote:

Let's see.....
1- People who give you a pile load more work to do just as you are getting your coat on.
2- People/kids that don't walk their dogs properly (i.e. keep them on a leash, I was out walking Teeko a few weeks ago and this dog came running across the street, it was a German Sheppard, I looked for the owner and there was this boy about 8 years old screaming for the dog to come back to him, when the dog finally went back a few minutes later he didn't bother to put the leash back on, the poor GS couldhave got hit by a car!).
3- The toilet seat up.
4- Leaving just a bit of milk/juice/water left so the next person who uses it has to change the carton/make more.
5- People who got to the 8 items or less check-out line with a FULL BASKET
Classmates who can't listen to instructions.
People who somehow made it into college with no grammatical skills, slowing down the rest of the class because they're idiots.
People who "EEW" When I mention my snakes/rats/mouse.
Cell phones in restaurants/theaters/when people are driving.
Kids that follow me around and ask me 9875267 questions when I'm trying to work. (or just in general)
Hey Slick: I saw something really funny happen thet you would have loved...some woman in a convertible was at a light putting on her makeup...something happened, I don't remember what, but she wound up with lipstick all the way across one side of her face right as the light changed!!
LOL!!! That reminds me of the movie Airplane. The same thing happened.Quote:

This morning I was following a woman who tried to put on her mascara and she applied a little at each light. Took her 15 min. Why bother??
Why not put it on at home and wake a few minutes early -- instead of risking your life and many others by not focusing on the road?
And people ask why i'm afraid to drive...:rolleyes:
This made me laugh (the part about the closable lips) but I agree. :DQuote:

Does everybody hate that, or is it just me?
1. Leaving the toilet seat up.
2. Finding tiny little whiskers on the sink after hubby shaves or, worst yet, finding them stuck on the soap!
:rolleyes:
3. I work for an ophthalmologist and it's amazing the number of people whose insurance require referrals and they come in and expect to be seen without them, or those people who have had an eye problem for days and wait until we are ready to close and suddenly feel they should be seen as an emergency. :rolleyes:
Hmmm...
1.) When the phone rings, and my mom is right by it, she asks me to pick it up. STOP BEING SO LAZY!! :rolleyes:
2.) People in my classes who wonder why they're failing, when they are disrespectful and don't do any work....DUH!...:p
3.) When the internet goes down...
4.) Kids who stop in the hall to chat..HELLO?! You can at least MOVE out of the way!
5.) When people consider dogs, just dogs. Obvious reason why I don't approve...
6.) People who try to "show off" and try to be someone they can't be.
7.) The doorbell ringing. I just find it annoying! :p
8.) Putting on makeup during class..
There's more...I'll come back. ;)
Julie, I honestly think we are sisters... lol I TOTALLY AGREE!Quote:
