Pet peeves


Yesterday when I was at the mall, a girl was smacking her gum sooo loud it echoed throughout the mall!


 


That is a huge pet peeve of mine. I already mentioned that I hate it when people use something and do not put it where it belongs also! And now driving and cell phone talking!


 


How about you?

I can not stand when people put cloth in thier mouths...When I was a child I used to pull my mittens up with my teeth- and now just the thought of any cloth in anyones mouth makes me cringe!

I don't understand why it's so hard for others to replace what they used up like the toilet paper roll. Or when they leave one square on the roll!

I also really dislike ignorance and people who think they know everything. I always tell people who think they know everything" Why havent you cured cancer yet if you know everything"

When people are trying to talk and they keep saying "Ya know". No I don't know that's why you're telling me. If it's on tv, I have to just turn the channel!

That usually comes with nervousness.


My first speech in my public speaking class the teacher counted my umms- there was 19! My thought was- I guess you did not really listen to what I had to say!


 


But you should not be nervous around us!

I think its me trying to pick the exact words I want to say while multi-tasking- I lose the train of thought instead of just giving my 100% attention! I promise to ummmm do better!

I totally agree! There is such as thing as uh-huh-ing too much and uh-huh-ing not enough. Either way, I feel like the other person isn't really listening to me.

But there's one I hate more than that: When I'm explaining something, I prefer uh-huh to "Yes, Maam." I know it's polite, but I'm not telling them what to do, I'm giving them information, it just doesn't seem appropriate.

I hate it when people either eat while talking to you or eat crunchy foods with their mouths open. Both give me the shivers.

I also can't stand people who drag their feet. If you're too tired to walk, man please sit down.

I can't stand those nylon-like pants. If you're wearing them to work out or jog, fine. But they make more noise than corduroys do, and the noise they make is like fingernails on a chalkboard to me.

Hey, any of you ever run into a desk reorganizer?

When I was a supervisor at an old job about 8 years ago I had a woman that would come in my office to talk to me about whatever problems were happening at the time.

She'd stand there on the other side of my desk and as she was talking to me she'd one by one pick things up off my desk and put them down in a different area, like she was straightening up my desk for me!

OOOOOOOOOOOH THAT BUGGED ME!

Riggs, that would have been a good time to put a dirty magazine like PlayPenguin on your desk! I bet she would've stopped then.

Have you ever sat next to someone that can't keep their legs still? They either bounce them or tap their foot.

I'm one of those people. I've gotten better, I don't keep tapping, but I have a hard time sitting in one place. I have to change position every few minutes. I know it drives people nuts, but I can't help it.

I'm a squirmer too. My wife says I have to get my nest made in bed every night before I can go to sleep.

I am one of those that will clean up your desk if I sit at But the girls in my office love that about me. I think they get me to cover for them when they need a cleaning!

At work, my desk is actually really clean. That's how I work, I finish something, it leaves my desk. So if my desk is still cluttered at the end of the day, I feel like I haven't got anything done. But I hate it when people move things. For example, my pen goes on my keyboard, not in my drawer. When someone uses my pen, they always put it in my drawer, and then I can't find it!

That would be a reason not to go into anyone's office or desk if they aren't there. I don't want to move or search for anything, especially since it doesn't belong to me. Now, if I am going in for a binder, that isn't a big deal.
