At work<\/strong>
\n1.) People who spend too much time on the telephone.\u00a0 A call here and there is one thing.\u00a0 But half-hour conversations and dozens of calls is just too much.\u00a0 When I have to keep headphones on to keep from having to hear other people’s phone conversations just pisses me off.\u00a0 Especially at the volume it takes to drown them out.\u00a0 Sometimes, I get the feeling my ears are going to start bleeding.
\n2.)\u00a0 People who carry on too much personal conversation.\u00a0 I enjoy a chat.\u00a0 I do most of mine at the end of the day when things are winding down.\u00a0 Particuarly when I am on my way out of the door.\u00a0 Working straight through the day is very hard.\u00a0 Everybody needs breaks from work to refresh themselves.\u00a0 I am no different.\u00a0 But again, half-hour conversations are just a bit much during the work day.
\n3.)\u00a0 People who eat at their desks.\u00a0 Particuarly people who bring in hot foods.\u00a0 Sometimes, the food just stinks.\u00a0 I really don’t want to smell it.\u00a0 I might not like the smell of their food.\u00a0 When I do bring in food from the outside, 99% of the time, it’s sandwiches and chips.\u00a0 These don’t have smells that radiate.<\/p>\n

On the road<\/strong>
\n1.)\u00a0 People who don’t turn on their lights when it’s raining.
\n2.)\u00a0 Popele who don’t turn on their lights when it’s dark.
\n3.)\u00a0 People who don’t use turn signals when changing lanes and when turning.
\n4.)\u00a0 People who constantly change lanes thinking it’s really going to get them ahead.
\n5.)\u00a0 People who cut off other people.\u00a0 People who cut me off.
\n6.)\u00a0 People who think they should get a pass because they drive a large SUV or an expensive luxury car.\u00a0 On the road, we are all equal just like we are in life.<\/p>\n

At home<\/strong>
\n1.)\u00a0 My computers, particularly Windows, that don’t do what I tell them to do.
\n2.)\u00a0 My neighbor whose bass is constantly flowing through the wall and into my house.\u00a0 Either I can take it like I have been doing for a few weeks.\u00a0 Trying to not get too pissed off.\u00a0 Or I can fire back like I have the past couple of nights.
\n3.)\u00a0 People who park on the street knowing that it is against the HOA policy.\u00a0 Even at the mailbox.\u00a0 When the visitor parking is full like it normally is, I can’t get my mail.\u00a0 That’s a bigger pet peeve but it fits in with this one.
\n4.)\u00a0 People who use the visitor parking as overflow parking knowing that it is against HOA policy.\u00a0 I.E.\u00a0 They have more vehicles than they can park in front of thier house.\u00a0 Especially, when they bought the vehicle while living there.
\n5.)\u00a0 People who park across two parking spots.\u00a0 As if their car or they are any better than anybody else.\u00a0 This may or may not be against HOA policy specifically, but it is just rude.
\n6.)\u00a0 People who parking in one of my two designated parking spots when they are not there to visit me.\u00a0 This is also against HOA policy.
\n7.)\u00a0 People who litter in my “yard.”\u00a0 I may not have alot of “yard” facing the road, but littering on it is just sad.\u00a0 Just like the 2 litre Diet Coke bottle I found in my “yard” last week.\u00a0 Just sad.
\n8.)\u00a0 People who don’t stop at the stop signs.\u00a0 Since, there are never police around.\u00a0 Why stop?\u00a0 At least that’s what alot of people in my neighborhood do.\u00a0 They yeild but don’t stop.\u00a0 Some of them don’t even bother to yeild.<\/p>\n

In general<\/strong>
\n1.)\u00a0 People who think they are better than others.\u00a0 We are all humans.\u00a0 We are all equal.\u00a0 Nobody is better than another.\u00a0 Some people make more money or have a better job.\u00a0 That doesn’t make them better.
\n2.)\u00a0 People who aren’s considerate.\u00a0 This needs no explanation.
\n3.)\u00a0 People who believe that they are above the rules.\u00a0 I.E. people who think their “shit doesn’t stink.”
\n4.)\u00a0 People who litter.\u00a0 This also needs no explanaton.<\/p>\n

Yes, I might be idealistic in my thoughts.\u00a0 But people should just really be curteous around their neighbors.\u00a0 I might not work 100% of the day, but what I do doesn’t bother my neighors because it isn’t loud or obnoxious and it doesn’t stink.\u00a0 I am an ass, it is true, but more often than not, I am more of an ass to myself than everybody else.\u00a0 But it does annoy me when people do the items listed above.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
