Pet Peeves
#381
It bugs when people on Facebook post a message to a certain person (that also has a FB account), but they post it on their personal wall for all of their friends to read.... post it on your friend's wall :rolleyes:

"No problem, I know how to do design, I'll send the menu over."
You receive email with (1) a Word Document with (2) the space bar used thousands of times instead of using tabs and (3) set up in full size margin pages where as now I have to put it into a trifold format which added all up will take longer than just typing it all from scratch.

When you've been on the phone with customer support for over an hour and they still can't help you but they end their conversation with, "Is there anything else we can help you with today?"
I said, "Wait, you're about to start now? Oh good."
"Excuse me sir?"
"By saying 'anything else' you're implying that you've helped so far, so I can't to see what you can't do next."

Cuss words are a pet peeve of mine, and the fact that I get sworn at daily doesn't help. They really bother me.

Getting a package from UPS that has been damaged and then put into a new box with damaged goods, also a pet peeve. I have bottles of pills that I ordered that are punctured and opened where the box got damaged so they got thrown into a new box and sent to me, how did someone find that acceptable?

Another? People who start hurtful rumors at work while someones going through a hard time.

And last, Someone doing something when they know better, then blaming it on something completely irrelevant.

I'm very peeved today.

When I have Spanish speaking patients, I am able to utilize the little choppy Spanish I know. I inform them that I know very little Spanish but I am able to tell them my name and that I am their nurse for the night. I am also able to ask if they have any pain and where, etc. I must be really good at the limited Spanish I speak:rolleyes: because sometimes they start rambling off as fast as they can, thinking I will understand them. I then tell them "poquito espanol" and they ramble again. Grrrr.

OH you are speakin' the truth Sista. That is when I forget any Spanish that I know and start speaking English and get the Blue interpreter phone out. They hate that phone and amazingly they can understand and speak English better.

Why don't MFGs of swing out tire carriers include one of these?



I didn't have my new tire carrier/bumper on for more than 1 hour when I mindlessly went to open my tailgate and BAM! I slammed my tail gate into the tire carrier.

Skatchkins worked his magic and made me two of these stickers.

I'm sure I'm not in the minority here! How many of you have done this???

When people call looking for a cheap made product and a quote and I explain "our printer is set up for lasting quality with UV ink to keep from fading, I don't really have a poster printer made for one time uses so with that pro goes the con of the cost not being cheap either."
Well go ahead and quote me on it
"Ok, it will be X amount"
The next 5minutes are the customer telling me how cheap they've had them made before but how she really wants to use us for the job.
"That sounds cheap, you should go with them. I'm not set up for one-time use quality"
But I really would like to use you, you come highly recommended.
"Well I appreciate that, but my ink is not made for that cost or quality application."
Well that's a shame because I really would like to be local.
"I appreciate that as well, I'm not offended, you should go with the cheaper vendor"
Man, I really wanted to use you.

People who pretend not to know what this sign means.



That's when I pretend I don't have mirrors on that side of the vehicle.

Also, along the lines of shoe salesman who instead of telling you they don't have the shoe you want in that size brings you a different shoe in your size, the radio dj who plays a song from the same album as the song requested instead of the requested song.

I am with Mike. My side mirrors will suddenly not work and I begin tailgating.
