Pet peeves

What peeves you off? Im talking everyday stuff, not biking stuff coz those are the usual suspects.

Me…

Before the start of a program, they tell you the gist of whats gonna happen and they do it in such a way that you dont have to be a rocket scientist to work out whats gonna happens. Channel 5 being the worst culprits when watching programmes like CSI.

My current one is when I get turned down at job interviews for not having enough credit derivatives experience when they can see from my CV that I have none, zero, zilch! Allegedly, 70% of people exaggerate or downright lie in their CVs, so if I don’t say I’ve done credit derivs, I haven’t bl00dy done it, OK? Stop wasting my time and getting my hopes up if having the relevant experience is a prerequisite!

Squeezy tomato sauce bottles that need a good squeeze then fire a salvo of sauce that scatters the target, usually onto either my trousers, the floor or both.

Like the fart noise tho… Can i have one without the other?

People that sit right up your chuff when your doing 30 past a speed camera! Some people always try and push it!

I hate spend time preparing my next day sandwish, wrpping it, putting it in a termo-bag and in the fridge and then at morning leave home late and forget the bloody thing in the fridge!!! End up paying for food and then get home and find out that my wife didn’t notice it and cooked more food! So I eat her food plus the sandwish… That’s why I’m not fitting into my one-piece leathers anymore

LOL done that too!! Imagine how annoyed I get when I go to out tomato sauce on the newly cooked dinner tho…

I really hate jessops customers lol, we have 2 digital kiosks, both have really easy to follow instruction and a card reader which has the car type named at the top of each slot. What I hate are people who come up and say they don’t know how to use the machine and they’ll just stand infront of it looking confused.

Most of the time its trying to help them get the cards in the slots, its like putting a quare peg in a round hole with some of these people. “Errmmmm… no sir I don’t think the XD card will work in the CF card slot!”

AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

WHY DO I WORK IN RETAIL!!!

YOU SNAP TRUST ME 2ND GEAR sorry a joke only know to us

ahhh! Come on Jason! Snap? tell us mate! Im as curious as anormal … er… bloke! lol

Dont worry Cezar, me & Jason will explain it to you when we meet you - remind us.

Fair enough! when? when? lol If it’s dry on friday night eh? lol

Yep if its dry then friday, hope your coming to Frith.

Another one…

Ungreatful neighbours who arent at home to accept their packages and the neighbour agrees to take them and are very ungreatful when the come to pick up their package and ring the bell about 50 times - next time, a refusal or package gets a good kicking but im thinking its the former but i could be easlily swayed.

MY PET PEEVE: collecting packages i wasn’t home to accept from next door neighbours only to find them in pieces. grrrrrrrrrrrrr.

sorry has to be a biking one, every bloody morning! I get to work, secure car park, and there is one bike bay wide enough for about 5 or 6 bikes but its also deep enough for two.
But why is it the first 5 blokes to arrive park at the front leaving 7 foot of space in front of them, so when I come in I’m fubared and have to park on the pavement at the other end of the building.

FCUK it, I’m off downstairs to put a note on their bikes right now

Bloody rickshaws to paint their own parking spaces in an ncp car park and say they rent it wtf im going to bring my wire cutters and use them as spoke cutters tonight

Another one

People who dump stuff outside their house, whats wrong with the bin or your garage? Next door have a bloody microwave sat in the front garden.

No pride!

  1. not getting paid enough despite a net value of over £300k this month alone!

  2. cops pulling you over for a small number plate / loud can / dark visor, and not noticing the car driver in front of you speeding, talking on the phone, eating a sandwich whilst writing an email on his blackberry to tell his secretary to make sure his coffee is made ready for when he gets there that has just past a cyclist so close that they have had to stop to prevent themselves from collapsing in the middle of the road from the imminent heart attack!

LOOK OUTSIDE THE BOX please officer…

  1. spastiks call centres! enough said

  2. talking to answer machines

  3. someone getting credit for something they havent done… thats just not fair!

ok, a few of mine.

wind blowing up sand when you’ve just finished applyin sunscreen

flatmate putting empty milk carton back into the fridge

people patting me on the head/ picking me up (once u meet me you’l see why!!)

people asking me for a “short” when working behind the bar (again, once u meet me you’l see why!!)

call centers that dont speak the language of the customers they are supposed to be serving

tourists in cornwall who dont know how to reverse their 4x4s in country lanes

tourists in cornwall who have just watched blue juice/ blue crush/riding with giants and think they can too

weather report saying huge swell on it way with strong soutwesterlies, getting to the beach to find a millpond (and loadsa tourists!)
