Stupid things that instantly piss you off

Anyway. Another pet peeve: Co-workers who stand outside my office door and have a shouted conversation with someone down the hall. For god's sake, just walk five metres to that person and have a spoken conversation with them!!!! I don't need to hear you blathering on! Nobody else needs to hear it either! Just give me some peace and quiet!!!!!

Sometimes that depends on the corporate culture and nature of dept. that one works in. If one has control/is responsible for a dept. and its space, then one can cultivate more discreet conversations.

Students who lose every piece of paper I give them. Even when I have purchased with my own money folders for them and remind them to put papers in the right folder.

Veronica, they haven't lost them. The papers are in the bottom of their lockers /and/or backpacks.

I know! And they can't seem to look through their back packs and desks to find them! I'm watching one of my little darlings right now look for a missing paper. It's painful. He's slowly picking up papers, staring at them... no he's not ADD.

I raised two of those little darlings. At the end of the year I found A LOT of papers on the bottom of their backpacks (that i had carefully signed and dated for the teacher and vice versa.) =8-0

It irks me when people are so intolerant to try new foods.

we were trying to organize a lunch to try these hotdogs called Japadogs http://www.japadog.com/menu/index.html when a couple of people in the office piped up "oh my god, that is SOOOO GROSS!!", "I NEVER eat hot dogs, they're nothing but lips and guts".

I hate it when people say bad things about food I'm about to eat. You don't want to eat it yourself, but *I*'m eating it, so please don't ruin it.
