Things That Tick Me Off

My day started without any hot water so I was kind of cranky all day. And Tuesdays are my long days, with three hours of school right after work. A lot of things bugged me today. Here's hoping tomorrow will be better.

1. No hot water on a cold March morning.

2. People who don't use proper grammar, spelling and/or punctuation.

3. People who get on to an elevator and then stand so close to the panel, no one else can press a button for their floor.

4. People who stop at the top (and bottom) of escalators and don't move out of the way.

5. People who ask inane questions, like "what's a co-ed" and "who is Gloria Steinem." *sigh*

6. People who use cell phones, "Crack"berries and other electronic devices while in my presence.

7. Telemarketers who call from my own Bank to offer me a credit card with a higher rate of interest than the one I already have.

8. People who decide the best place to train their two-year-old on a tricycle is in the hallway, outside my door, at 8AM on a workday.

9. People who use buttons and panels intended to help disabled people. Overuse of these facilities by able-bodied people will result in them NOT working one day for someone who really needs it. Don't be so fucking lazy and open the door yourself!

10. Wait staff who insist on referring to me and my girlfriends (or me and my boyfriend) as "you guys". I am not a guy. Never have been. And I am not a "folk" either.

GRRR!!! (Please feel free to add your own.)
