Trivial things that make you annoyed beyond expectations?

[Gunk]

If I'm not back into the office until next Tuesday and someone wants further info on a case I've started, why do my colleagues forward the email to me rather than simply supplying the required info from the case file or the samples in the store cupboard?

Because they‘re bone idle?

 

[Jenkins]

I hope you are ignoring the emails

Of course

That would mean that your colleagues would actually have to do some extra work.

Because they‘re bone idle?

I couldn't possibly comment!

Annoying thing to day
Went to the Pharmacy first thing to get a prescription. I knew it had been approved so it was a quick in-an-out job

The Pharmacy is part of a "Health Centre" complex with the Urgent Care centre, 2 GPs, the pharmacy plus some consulting rooms and office upstairs - so a fair sized building
Someone was parked directly outside the entrance - which means seriously blocking the cars going in and out - you can still get past - but it makes it tight
someone else was parked a few feet away from the first car - blocking parked cars if they wanted to leave

I drove past and looked for a parking place - there were FIVE parking places at the far end - no need to park in people's way

Now - I understand that some people may have mobility problems - not these one - as I got to the entrance a woman walked swiftly out and got into the car - no mobility problems

I got my prescription and went back to my car

by the time I got to the entrance an SUV was parked there - but even closer to the car park entrance which has a very sharp corned into it
just managed to turn past him

Just plain laziness in most cases - I have had to park as close as possible when my wife has an appointment and her asthma is bad - still manage to avoid blocking people for ages!!!

Out on my ride I realised that pros don't stop at traffic lights, this is obviously how they are faster than us! and this really annoyed me!🤣🤣🤣

I have someone at work who calls her holiday a vacation. We are not bloody American, I feel like screaming every time it is said, or worse put in an email

Or give way at roundabouts and other junctions, they really give us law abiding cyclists a bad name.

Cars don’t seem to stop either, I can’t believe how many I see jumping the lights

Adults who's pets "cross the rainbow bridge". I've had a few animals over the years, from cats to horses. They all died. If I told someone about it I'd say they died. It's a fact of pet ownership and not one to shy away from nor be coy or childish about.

I agree
My dog died - very sad (for me) but she died - that is all
Also my Mum and Dad died
they didn't "pass" or "go forward" or whatever other dumb Americanised carp people come up with

It might sound final - but it is so you have to accept it
I might sugar coat it for the grandkids - but adults need to deal with it and using words that faff about and blurr the meaning don;t help!!

IMO

also add "furr babies" - anyone calling them that needs help and someone needs to check how they treat their pets
treating pets as people leads to all sorts of bad feeding and exercise habits!!

Facebook users who do this:

" To the person who....... [insert whatever wrongdoing the user believes the person did - perhaps to do with driving or dog poo or noisy kids]".

Do these Facebook users really believe the person who slighted them will read the comment, come to their senses and apologise? No, they don't. These people have a need to be SEEN to have a moral high ground, and they are often backed up in the comments by similar other people who also throw in their two penn'orth, and describe other situations of being wronged by a stranger.

They may even be the same people who have a need to be seen wishing a household family member happy birthday. I simply mention it directly to the appropriate family member, face-to-face, perhaps backed up with a card or gift - I don't see the need to broadcast my saying happy birthday to the internet in order to be seen as being somehow thoughtful or loving or whatever.

Then there are the people who need to be seen to be complaining about how other people use the internet...

Probably, they don’t seem to be the brightest

I am not going to reveal my real name but it is the same as a now long gone tv character.
In an office I was asked for my name by the boss of the office and gave it to a blank look and reply
“ yes but what is your real name?”.
The office staff who all knew me were in knots as they tried to keep from laughing too much. I suspect he was not a popular boss.
