    my pet peeve is when people talk on their cell phones like they are on a microphone, seriously I'm not interested in your private life.

    Pet Peeve?
    Probably the one pet peeve I have that I am reminded of the most is people who are habitually late and there is no reason for it. (Some people are always late to an activity because of their work schedule. I am not talking about them, for example.)

    Another one
    When I read a set of instructions, policy, or other important document and in there it says, "Read and understand". No one can command you to understand. As Judge Judy would say "this requires the knowlege of the operation of thier mind". No one besides the person and God himself has that kind of knowlege. I wish we could command others to understand but it is not within our power.

    I think some people are late
    I think some people are late on purpose because they don't like to be told what to do or they think they are too important. That's what a doctor said once on a tv show. Think it is true?

    I can't believe how many people
    don't even think of replying or smiling back when you pass them and say "good morning" or whatever. No response has become the norm. How rude!

    Doesn't it seem Kay that a lot of people just don't have good manners anymore? I don't know if they haven't been taught at home or if they are just in such a hurry. I always say hi or good morning or smile at everyone. A smile is free!

    slow reacter
    Luckily my co workers know I am a slow reactor. They say Hi and I have something on my mind I ract 20 seconds later. I have also been known to appologize for bumping into another later like that. But I react within normal time frames when not in "mission mode".

    SUV in Parking Lots
    It drives me nuts when a SUV parks in a space designated for a small car. It happens all the time in the parking lot for Northwestern Memorial Hospital. I often wonder if those drivers can read or are they that stubborn and inconsiderate to another driver of a small car. What's wrong is that the SUV makes it extremely difficult for the person parked next to them to get into his/her car. Once, I had to ask a super skinny girl if she would enter my car and drive it out of its spot, so that I could get into my car. It was difficult for her to squeeze into that space to enter my car.

    Wow
    There are allot, and those who hate spelling errors get mad when the paper you buy does it not those of us who write on here. Emotions change everything and thoughts more improtant,LOL

    I do not understand how humans really think. Who every thought texting was a good thing driving let alone talking on the phone. Parents stop talking and texting with your children in the car I am tired of seeing that because your children are in danger.

    I like that statement the fellow made after landing his jump in his space suit, wishing we all had been able be and see where he has been and realize just how small we are. I have a friend who reminds us all how insignificant we truly are in the big picture of life.

    Nothing is that important that you need to put others at risk and especially your own family there are enough things we do not have control over but this actually is one.
    Truckers need to stop texting on highways I see it all the time.

    People using undiagnosed cancer
    People using undiagnosed cancer as an excuse for not finishing a project started a YEAR earlier. Yep it just happened to me. I had to redo and finish a project recently (DVD for a class reunion that I planned during my real diagnosis and treatment) and the person had the gall to say she couldn't deliver (this was on Facebook) because they JUST found a mass during a mammo. It hasn't been diagnosed as cancer yet and she has people thanking her for her hard work (for something she didn't deliver) and how sorry they are that she has cancer!

    Boy I needed this to vent! Thanks for listening. I don't want to lower myself to her level by posting a rebuttal on FB. Don't get me wrong, I'm sorry if she does in fact have cancer, but she's told so many lies the last year I don't know what to believe. That's my other pet peeve-liars.

    I feel better now.

    I hate it when you go to the doctor and have to sit there and wait and wait and wait. And, I always get there early. Ughhhhh

    Political proselytizers. I hate when people are disrespectful towards either party or candidate. And I definitely, definitely dislike those who are in your face with their beliefs. A thoughtful discussion is fine. But let's face it, you are not going to change my mind and I doubt I will change yours.

    But we do need to stop the emotional, flippant comments, on both sides, and we must learn to work together. Compromise and diplomacy would be a breath of fresh air to me.

    not a big problem
    You have no control over the space size so no biggy. Yeah the trucks are longer nowdays and if you have the money for gas (I never do) great. It is usually the ones with a new sports car. If you are that worried you can buy these leather door protectors. Interesingly the ones made for the front of the car are called bras. If you want to avoid dings in the door buy a door bra rather than take up two spaces parking cockeyed.

    People
    who talk on their cell phones in a public restroom. Do they really think that whoever they are talking to really wants to listen to other peoples body functions?

    Another pet peeve is waiters and waitresses who should not be doing this job. I hate having cold food because the server was too busy messing with the other help. Today I went to lunch in a very nice restaurant and we had to ask for the food, she was busy visiting with other help and brought cold french onion soup and cold (hot sandwiches), which were not the sandwiches that we ordered. Asked for new food, and watched her take the sandwiches and soup and nuke them. Ruined the bread, so had half a turkey and spinach sandwich without the delicious homemade rye bread!

    Camul, that is so right and
    Camul, that is so right and really funny. I've seen that too and thought the same thing. Why not wait until you are out of the bathroom...geesh LOL
