Other peeves of mine....
People, from outside an office area, that go to meetings and ALWAYS have to get a cup of water out of the office cooler.......(each office has a water budget.....) If I walked into your office and helped myself to your stuff --you wouldn't be pleased.
Right before that they put on lipstick that ends up all over the cup.....
EWWWWWWWWW...
Then they pitch the half-filled cup into the trash, the housekeepers get ticked off at us because of the spillage when they go to empty the cans....
Richard, you have a water budget? I think that would peeve me too! I mean really, I understand budgets and all, and understand that they need to be complied with, but what....was somebody drinking too much water at one time and the company didn't want to pay for it? :confused: I'm usually so glad I work for a small company - no water budgets to deal with here. ;) Although....since you do have a budget, I think what you describe would peeve me too, especially since they take one sip then throw the rest away! No wonder they have to come to your department to get water - theirs is all in the trash can! :rolleyes:

Check traffic (none) ...
Wedge steering wheel wiff kneebone ...
TURN around (almost facing the BACK window) ...
Aim ~ *snap* ~ *FLASH* ... GOT em!
As I turned back to a more eyes-FORward position -
I spotted the http://petoftheday.com/i/our_smilies/eek.gif Lady State TROOPERETTE sitting not 100 feet away
in her Troopermobile at the end of a Maintenance Outpost driveway!
(The flash had *fired* almost directly in front of her!)
*Oooopsie*! http://petoftheday.com/i/our_smilies/redface.gif
I swear our eyes locked as I Zoomed past ...
I drove the next 30 miles looking in the mirror - expecting to see *flashin* lights ...
I was rehearsing my answer to WHAT the bloody heck were you DOING!?"
She musta figured the Judge would never believe her - she never gave chase.

Yes, the individual depts have a budget for water....Quote:

I don't drink the water or the coffee in the breakroom-as a matter of fact I have been in our breakroom 3 times in six years....That's another peeve for another time...
How about this one....
No-good-Co-workers, anyone?
Today, Going on my break. Under the age of 18 you HAVE to clock-out and go on break at a certain time. It was my break time, so I got my food and sat down. Noticed my co-worker who was manning the front counter and drive-thru was busy at the drive-thru and had customers at the counter. Got up, left my food and waited on the customers while on break.
Got done with that, about 10 minutes into my break and finally got to sit down and eat my lunch.
I come back from break and it's her turn to go on break. We're now at a more busy time of the day. There's now 2 other people up front but they are manning the drive-thru which at the time was completely wrapped around the building. There were probably 10 or so customers at the counter and I was the only one at the counter. Going crazy with no one to bag/get my orders, my co-worker who *I* had previously helped just leaves and goes on break! No help AT ALL. Not even with the few customers who only wanted re-fills.
If that's no-good and inconsiderate I don't know what is.
At my work place, we have the mind-set as being a TEAM. She certainly was not a part of the team today.
Ahhh...pet peeves at work? I have a list, but I just encountered one of my biggest pet peeves...people who go to the bathroom and walk out without flushing or washing their hands! :eek:
How hard is it to flush a toilet anyway? Especially since there are other people who use them. Be considerate, folks! :rolleyes:
Yuk...
:p
A few of the threads in the dog section lately have stuck a nerve with me. PEOPLE WHO TREAT PETS AS DISPOSABLE PROPERTY!!! :mad: :mad: :mad:
If you can't pay the vet bills, don't get 'em.
If you can't pay the vet bills, don't breed 'em.
If you need contact with animals that badly volunteer at a shelter.
Ditto, ditto, ditto, ditto!!!
I had a co-irker who showed up at work yesterday so stoned he couldn't speak a coherent sentence. He was an hour late, and he stank of pot. He spent the entire day staring vacantly down the aisle, but he's buds with the owner's son so nobody would think to fire him or anything. :rolleyes:
My pet peeve people yacking on cells in the bathroom . I really don't care to share my experance with your freinds.
Kay, you are the exception, not the rule, IMO, with employees. Good on you, it is a trait that will serve you well over the moron slacker.
Pet Peeve? The person in the food industry that seems to think the plastic gloves on his/her hands are to protect him/her from my food, not the other way around. This guy at the bagel shop touched everything in the world with his goves on, while handling my food.
Hey, moron, the idea is to protect MY food from germs, not YOUR hands!!!
Oh, here I go again.
I bought a can of "Spicy Thai tuna w/crackers" The tuna was so sweet/sugary I wanted to spit the first bite out.....
WHAT IS IT WITH THE SUGARY TASTE OF FOOD LATELY?? :rolleyes:
-----------------------------------
There is a 'float person' (a person who fills in when someone calls out sick, if everyone shows up, they send her home) She complains about the money, the job and the fact that she has to work in the unit.....she gets MORE ticked off when I tell her that if she is not satisfied, to talk to a union steward to get her out of this work detail...
How hard is it to realize that if you do not work, you can't pay your rent???
Or eat??? :mad:
-------------------------------------------
Ugh.....
Today on the elevator I got hit with two of my most major PEEVES..
Men who wear white ribbed wife beaters in public and men who hang all over women while they are in public.....double loser!
LOSER!!
-----------------------------
And the next big one is......
People who are in the area who talk to their computers (they are setting up an attack on my politics).....so that you can ask, "what's bothering you?"
Then they deliver a rant about the prez, the country and all else that bugs them, then when they can't bait you-- they make a snippy comment as they walk out of the room....
LLLLOOOOOSSSEEEERRRRRSSSSSS!!!
-----------------------------------
And two fast rants about video games.....
A "steal a car, hit and run, shoot the cops" and "Let's play WWII" video games are rated "TEEN"....
Hey, life's a video game!! Resolve your problems with a game controller or a gun!!!!
And the other is the "Urban Shoot Em Up" game with that moron, 50 "NO" Cents??
What's up with that???
A video game where people shoot at each other in the 'hood!!!!!
Where's Tookie when you need him???? :rolleyes:
Can I be a tad disgusting for a bit and add...turn on the fan!!! I understand that people have issues somedays, or for others, everyday, but there is a fan in there for a reason!!!Quote:
