Pet Peeves...What Are Yours?

So, what are your pet peeves?

I have so many little things that drive me up a wall, so I'll only name a few.

1. People who chew with their mouth opened.
2. Punctuality; I hate when someone is late. Why can't people ever be on time?
3. When someone will replace a "zero" with the letter "O" when giving out a phone number, for example.

I use to waitress and I know what you mean.

*big Pet Peeve* When people drive threw the parking lots and not down the rows.

People who park in front of the grocery store (the fire lane)

I use to work in the ER and I get so upset when people come in there for a cough, hang nail, toothache etc. Basically anything not life threatening.

Those all that I can think of right now.

I HATE it when people don't PICK UP THEIR FEET....is it tooooo much energy to pick up your feet instead of scuff them along the floor!!!  It drives me crazy.  I used to be responsible for conducting interviews for the store I worked at, and if they came into the interview dragging their feet...NO JOB FOR THEM!!!

I know I have A LOT but I cant think of all of them right now. Here are a few.
1. When people can't spell.
2. When people chew with their mouth open. I don't need to see what you're eating, close your damn mouth.
3. When people smack their gum.
4. Misuse of punctuation, I'm not the best at it but at least I know the basics.
5. My boyfriend.
6. When people ask if my son has rug burn on his forehead. No, you idiot it is a birthmark and that's a very common place for a birthmark.
7. When my customers ( I waitress) make jokes that they think I have never heard before but in reality I hear them EVERYDAY.  
8. When I come to a table set for 8 and only 2 people are there, they insist on telling me that they are still waiting for a few more. Oh, really, I thought you just needed some extra space.
I'm starting to think that I just don't like people

wannabenana...I am with you on the late thing.  I think it's disrespectful.  It's a bone of contention between me and my daughter.  She can't help being late and she always makes me late and no amount of lecturing works.  Also, I hate overly mellow drivers during the rush hour, I just want to shove some coffee down their throats (but seriously, I am working on my road rage issues).  I guess my biggest pet peeve though is the lack of manners...nobody says thank you anymore.

Almost anything my husband does is a pet peeve.
