Pet Peeves--New and Improved for 2010

Self checkout at the grocery store.

no thanks! scan and bag? nagada. that's almost as bad as having to pump your own gas which of course we must do. I guess scanning your own stuff could be next. oh please no.

publix cashiers are part of the family by now. great peeps. we always talking about BS stuff. but they get you in and out pretty quickly.

Oh Lord, don't even get me started on the whole gas thing. I did read I posted about that on a former PP thread. I had to do it tonight in anticipation of the frigid temps on the way. I still hate it as much as I ever did.
I promise I'll try to get all sunshiny and happy real soon...just as soon as the freakin' sun comes out and the wind stops blowing.

yeah, I'm still pissed about the gas thing. most people probably don't remember full service gas stations.

moody winter blues are okay with me. as long as you stay happy and funn.:funn:

I did love the Moody Blues though.

It annoys me that the very beginning and/or the very end of TV shows I record are cut off because the recording starts and stops exactly on the hour and/or the half hour, but the show does not. You'd think the cable companies would have picked up on that by now.

I agree!

"There" is a location, "their" means 2 or more people own it!

Left lane slow pokes!

How much common sense, do you need? You get in the left lane, to PASS a vehicle!

People who drive way under the speed limit in the left lane while I am trying my best to get to the dentist, who agreed to work me in, due to a chipped tooth.

I was really hoping 2010 would start off without any drama.

I actually have a lot more respect for the cashiers now that I've had to scan my own groceries a few times!

On the subject of groceries, cashiers. The ones who are regular little chatty Kathy types. Quit the conversation and start checking out and bagging! I'm waiting.

There are a lot of good cashiers who can chat as they quickly scan.

My pet peeve is the bagger who is so busy texting they can't bag the groceries!
