A Sneak Peak Into My Crazy Life as I Try to Get Through Nursing School,
and the Technology, Books, Movies, Music & Lyrics I Enjoy

People Are Pissin’ Me Off!

by @ 2:49 pm on October 25, 2004. Filed under Life | Music | News

Things that are irritating me today:

1. People who are surprised that Ashlee Simpson lip-synchs.
2. People who try to tell me how to do my job – and are wrong.
3. When I am standing by the elevator buttons and people bowl me over to push a button. DO NOT touch me, you toad! How hard is it to say “5 please”?
4. Two cars driving down a two lane road, side-by-side, both going at least 20 miles under the speed limit.
5. People who put the coffee pot back on the burner just enough coffee in the pot to cover the bottom and do not turn off the burner or make another pot of coffee.
6. People with college degrees who still can’t figure out when to use their, there or they’re.
7. People who needlessly clutter my inbox by hitting reply all to every single email sent to them.
8. Dropped calls and roaming. I should NOT hit roaming when moving from one side of the couch to the other, especially since I live in a major metropolitan area.
9. Current liquor laws – at 18, we consider people mature enough to die for our country and vote for leaders, but not purchase and consume alcohol.
10. People who complain constantly, but do nothing to resolve the issue.

  1. Well, in the military there are stores known as “Class 6″ stores. This is where recruits 18 and up who have been signed off by their Sgt’s can purchase alcohol to consume.

    Now here is the sticky wicket: they cannot give the booze away to people who are not in the military, military dependants do not count, and they cannot take the alcohol off base or even leave the base if under any type of intoxication at all. If they do, someones First Sgt will be wearing their buttocks as a coon skin cap come morning. and that’s after the MP’s get done administering a judicial beat down for wasting their time.

    Join the military, get shot at, drink early, and party hard.

  2. 6. People with college degrees who still can’t figure out when to use their, there or they’re.

    I was browsing a MENSA lj community and found tons of misspelling and some information given to one question was wrong. I even pointed it out but was told I was wrong. Nope - he was wrong. I had to prove it. UGH!

  4. 2. People who try to tell me how to do my job – and are wrong.

    There are many things in this world that annoy me, including most of the things on your list. But this one is one of the worst.

  7. 8. Dropped calls and roaming. I should NOT hit roaming when moving from one side of the couch to the other, especially since I live in a major metropolitan area.

    Perhaps one side of your couch is supported by lead sheeting or an inordinate number of spring. ;p

    Yarha, Get the Lead Out

  8. Yeah, but you have to sell your soul for the wonders of brandy.
    Bah!

    Comment by jaxia — October 25, 2004 @ 7:50 am

  9. It wasn’t selling my soul. :p
    I got paid to jump out of airplanes, shoot big guns, blow stuff up, and do all the adrenaline junkie crap I would have had to pay someone else to be able to do.
    Now other people may have to sell small pieces of their soul if they not a simple minded modern caveman like myself. :p

    /huggles the sweet talkin’ Texan gal and tips her a snifter of brandy

  11. You never piss me off :)

    Comment by jaxia — October 26, 2004 @ 2:17 am

  12. Once again, you prove you are an angel

    Comment by grizzilla — October 26, 2004 @ 1:56 pm

  13. I got 4 different versions of this ;) Thanks my GG!

    Comment by jaxia — October 29, 2004 @ 6:28 am

  14. That was obvously an accident. I have been having LJ problems as of late, mainly it not letting me post or timing out and whatnot.

    Of course you deserve to be called an angel as much as possible, but I don’t mean to do it in an annoying way

    Comment by grizzilla — October 29, 2004 @ 2:07 pm

  15. You could never be annoying! I just thought it was cute because while they all had the same basic message, each was a little different :)

    Comment by jaxia — November 4, 2004 @ 6:20 pm

  16. Yeah, that was one of the frustrating parts. I would write a comment, click send, get an error and then it would lose my comment so I had to try to write it again.
