Pet Peeves.

[TheDeadHarlequinQueen]

I have so many pet peeves that I can't name them all! I am a ver irratable person, and there foor, many things get on my nerves. I think right now, my main pet peeve is people in general. I have gotten to the point where I hate most everyone. It's not something I'm proud of but yeah. No worries though, I like most of you all on here! :lol: Now, it's your turn to tell me your pet peeves!

[chewy]

Hopefully this pet peeves thread will last longer than the last one. As long as politics and religion are kept out if it...

A-F*cking-men! Hate people who are "Politically Correct" its stupid.

but besides that, Dripping faucets, and labels on bottles.

If you were to look at the massive piles of empty water/soda bottles strewn around my room, i would say about 90% dont have a label on them.

I hatehow they ask every little question when playing a videogame! Are you sure you want to delete this file? Are you sure you want to upload this profile? Are you sure you want to save this game? When have I EVER not wanted to save my progress and "overwrite" my file? If I am able to win a street race tournament and win a car that I can't get with a cheat, I think I can press the right buttons and know whether or not I want to save my damn file!!!

[fireyredhead]

Pet Peeve: I hate stupid drivers!

[UNDEAD FRED]

People who open thier car doors, and hitting yours, scratching your door.

pet peeve: Politically Correct People!
Didn't you read ANY of the above in which it was stated the last thread like this was shut down due to the inclusion of POLITICS? Are you of the opinion that POLITICALLY CORRECT PEOPLE have nothing to do with ATZ's OFF LIMITS policy on POLITICS? Do you call them POLITICALLY CORRECT because they don't have anything to do with politics?

Holy newbie. :roll:

[fireyredhead]

pet peeve: people who like to use big words to make a very little point.

[The Blind Dead]

pet peeve: people who like to use big words to make a very little point.Then perhaps you should steer clear of POLITICALLY then, huh? :?

[jackskellington]

Anything that isn't level in a home, office or restaurant such as picture frames. :x

[The Blind Dead]

hahahaha! I actually go to friend's homes, waltz down their hallways to visit the bathroom and tilt pics on the walls purposely to piss them off later lol

[jackskellington]

That would drive me INSANE!! Alot of my co-workers do things like that in the courtroom every week to annoy me. I actually keep a small torpedo level in my patrol car in order to keep up with that stuff! The wife says I've got OCD but I don't know...

[UNDEAD FRED]

People who seem to think that they are better than everyone else, That they feel like its thier holy duty to point out some trivial little bullshit to make them feel superior than everyone else. That they have to get the last word in just to give them whatever feeling they need to get over thier inferiority complex that haunts them. Freud refered to it as the small penis syndrome.

[Captain Hawk]

I don't know if this is universal or just a Verizon phone thing. But when you call someone and you just want to leave a quick message, and you have to go through the whole "If you'd like to leave a message please do so after the beep (*no s**t) or if you'd like to leave a call back number please press 5, or hang up or stay on the line for more options." what happened to simply leaving a message after a beep? what was wrong with that?

[UNDEAD FRED]

Cities that enforce thier parking meters over the weekend.

[fireyredhead]

Then perhaps you should steer clear of POLITICALLY then, huh? :?

well allow to rephrase my earlier post.

Are you intentionally trying to derail this thread? You know very well that there is a difference between "politics" and "political correctness". You will note in my original post that I said nothing about the latter.


Anyways, back on topic...

My pet peeves? Too many to mention.

[fireyredhead]

Pet Peeve: People who insist you look good in a color you hate!

[UNDEAD FRED]

Pet Peeve, people who dont mention all there pet peeves, it must mean they must have some intresting pet peeves.


and I agree with you Chewy, people who are politically correct and politics are to different things.

[Strychnine]

i CANNOT STAND attention seekers or people who try to subtly get you to compliment them.
like saying crap like 'oh no one is interested in, me, im so ugly/fat'
or say that they are so crap or useless at something when they are CLEARLY not.....


Pet Peeve, people who dont mention all there pet peeves, it must mean they must have some intresting pet peeves.


Not trying to cause a debate/argument or anything matey, but tbh i know i have loads of pet peeves but just cant really think of them atm. I usually rememeber when they crop up.

[fireyredhead]

Hello!!! huge attention seeker here! And I never resort to those tired worn out lines! you gotta be creative when seeking attention. So does this mean we cant be friends, Strych?

[chewy]

Pet Peeve, people who dont mention all there pet peeves, it must mean they must have some intresting pet peeves.

Sorry. If I mention all of them, the internet is going to run out of bandwidth.

[pogosama]

You're insecure aren't you chewy.

[Strychnine]

Hello!!! huge attention seeker here! And I never resort to those tired worn out lines! you gotta be creative when seeking attention. So does this mean we cant be friends, Strych?

No we can be the bestestest of friends!!
maybe have girl nights in, talk about boys and do eachother hair and nails :lol:

but no, i dont mind that as much, and yeah, even i like to be complimented from time to time...even tho it never happens *hint hint* hahaha

but seriously, if people do it constantly (like a few of my friends do :s) then it REALLY frustrates me. i never let it known it does coz i dont like pointing out, imo, peoples negative aspests but sometimes i do get the feeling just to tell them to shut up and stop being so damn lame!

[chewy]

You're insecure aren't you chewy.

Nope. I live in New Jersey. Trust me - there's lots of things here to be irked about. It's so bad that I've even given serious consideration to running for political office here, but the current dominant party has had a stranglehold on this state for decades. Since I'm in the "other" party, I'd stand no chance of getting elected.

[pogosama]

Glad to see that politics interests you. One of my pet peeves is politics.

[Strychnine]

O_o

Pet Peeve: Game/forum griefers

[fireyredhead]

Glad to see that politics interests you. One of my pet peeves is politics.

oh, oh, does this mean we can go into pet peeve politics now?

[Sambob]

No, no politics, that's how the last one got closed down, no religion either.

One of my biggest peeves is my memory. I'll think of a really great idea for a sroty or to put into one that I'm writing but have nowhere or no time to write it down. So I'll try and remember it, but I'll get distracted by other things and end up forgetting it completely.

[fireyredhead]

I know this is bad and I, in no way, mean to insult anyone by it but one of my biggest pet peeves is misspelled words. I just want to take a red Sharpie and correct the post. You should see my moniter! LOL

Pet Peeve: smart-asses trying to prove me wrong

to my knowledge both are correct...if anything s wrong i think its the use of the word.......anyway......

[pogosama]

How did we suddenly start talking about mispelt words?

[UNDEAD FRED]

internet pop ups

[fireyredhead]

*blinks innocently* I have no idea.

Pet Peeve: Dirty Jeans. I hate it when I dont keep up on my laundry!

[pogosama]

Whats wrong with wearing dirty clothes? Its not THAT bad. Sheesh

[fireyredhead]

Its a pet peeve for cryin out loud! SHEESH!

[UNDEAD FRED]

Mid western tourist who wear black socks with sandles, loud hawiian shirts, and take pics while feed the seagulls.

[pogosama]

Whats wrong with socks and sandles?

[fireyredhead]

body piercing, especially on men. I cant stand that! I dont know what it is but it just irritates the hell outta me.

[UNDEAD FRED]

Black socks and sandles, plus theres just something wrong if you wear socks with sandles, Its a beach thing

Pet Peeve: slow people in front of me when im walking down the street, especially the elderly, i get a big compulsion to push em over.

[UNDEAD FRED]

Fashion wrongs

[fireyredhead]

Pet Peeve: questioning others pet peeves. If they got a pet peeve, its their pet peeve. Its not that there is anything wrong with it, its just their thing.

[Strychnine]

One that has only recently started is stupid kids walking around listening to the music from their mobile phones....ffs, have some consideration for others and f you HAVE to do it, atleast put something worth listening to on!

[fireyredhead]

I totally agree with that one, Strych!

[Strychnine]

smokers in bars annoy me. i wanna go out for a few drinks but when i leave my clothes REEK of smoke, yuck!!
fortunatly tho the smoking in public ban will come into action very soon, HURRAH!!!!!

[UNDEAD FRED]

You cannot smoke in a bar in California, The PC police will write you a $200 ticket, I think, The bar can loose thier liqour license. I hate haven to deal with smoking blue hair up at the local Indian Casino's. I hate that Cig smell in your cloths when you leave.

[Strychnine]

see, another good reason to move to cali :(

[pogosama]

California isn't THAT fantastic. I'd trade homes with you for a month or so, just to enjoy England.

[chewy]

California isn't THAT fantastic.

True, but it's starting to look pretty good again after having spent the past 14 months in NJ.

[UNDEAD FRED]

Yep Chewy it still is, even thou I live inland now, Ever been to lakeside?

[Sambob]

I agree with all those things.

Slow people are annoying as hell, but mainly when they are blocking the path, if I can walk around them I'm not too fussed.

Crappy music coming from tinny speakers in shitty phones, especially on busses where you can't get away from it, makes me want to shove their damned phones down their throats.

But smoking in bars/pubs. I cannot wait until the ban is put on, although I can see a small decline in sales for the places I don't really care, as long as I can have a good night out and come home without reeking of fags.

(To clear that up for the non-english, a fag is a cigarette)

[Victor Clark]

I have a problem with gas stations that are side by side to each other, and you still see people at the one with higher gas prices.:lol: It just bothers the hell out of me!

Oh god, that reminds me of the new Walgreens there building literally 10 feet from Ralphs. That ticks me off. Why not build it down the street, literally 10 feet from my house. So my lazy ass can get my fritos in less then 30 seconds, and be home in time to see 24 after the commercial break.

[UNDEAD FRED]

Telephone soliciters, especially if they call on my cell phone, and leave a message

[Victor Clark]

I hate the service at every Hardees I go to! Don't get me wrong, I love their food, but they take more than ten minutes to serve me my damn food. Once I walked inside one and saw there were only 2 people working in the whole resteraunt! And I couldn't get an application to work there!

Oh well, I work in a real resteraunt now.:)

[fireyredhead]

bill collectors who insist on asking for a payment even after youve told them youre unemployed. HEL-LO! I have no job! You'll get youre frakkin money when I get a frakkin paycheck!

[pogosama]

My telephones ring every time someone ELSE in my apartment BUILDING receives a call. I cant answer the call, but theres a wiring error or something that makes it ring in our house.

[fireyredhead]

[pogosama]

[fireyredhead]

I'm disappointed that I didnt surprise you :(

[fireyredhead]

I know what you mean, I asked the clerk at Best Buy if they had the Dawn of the Dead Box set, The little shit said he never heard of that movie, and had to look it up on the computer,They didnt have it. There's something wrong with that.

People who do not understand the rules of your turn at pool at a bar.

[Sambob]

When someone asks you something that you have no idea about and when you answer with something that equals "I don't know" they get annoyed thinking that you should know everything.

[DentFoster]

The fact that we don't require semi-annual driver tests for senior citizens. That should be manditory.

Blind them with tech jargon. If you use a big one like "magnetic field induction", 98% of them will go into dummy mode.

Pet peeve du jour: Smoking nazis.

Earlier today, I was sitting on the tailgate of my truck in the parking lot of the bookstore, enjoying the nice weather and flipping through a magazine. I was also smoking a cigarette. I'm about 50 feet (and downwind) from the entrance to the store. Two women, one of whom is pushing a baby carriage, walk out of the store. The baby-lady waits at the curb while the other goes to get the car. This woman has the gall to walk right up to me and demand that I put out my cigarette so that her niece is not exposed to my second-hand smoke.

I am a non smoker but thats to far, What did you say to her?

[Some_Day...]

F*ck off I hope!!

[UNDEAD FRED]

a niebor has horses, and doesnt take care of them properly, never cleans thier pen, They can get rot on thier hoofs.

[chewy]

I am a non smoker but thats to far, What did you say to her?

I directed her to the sign on the wall of the bookstore that said "no smoking within 25 feet of building entrance". She seemed to get a little annoyed with that, then she continued with her rant. She broke it off when I stood up, towered over her and told her that she was more than welcome to try and take it away from me. I really hate intimidating people, but I was minding my own business and I wasn't breaking any laws.

F*ck off I hope!!

The thought did occur to me, but I do my best to remain civil to others as much as I can.

[Strychnine]

Pet Peeve: People taking forever and a day to buy a ticket.

I was waiting behind a couple today for 15-20 minutes for them to buy their train tickets!! I dont exactly know what they were doing, i think asking about the prices of every stop and their alternatives, to save i think....50p!!!!

THEN they were pissing about with their card to buy them, 1st they forgot the pin, then they typed it it wrong...3 times! etc......just being total idiots!
They ended up making me miss my train which i was not happy about!
What was the final nail in the coffin was when they had finished they turned to me with big grins on their faces and said "oh, we hope we didnt take to long"
thet really frustrated me and rude or not i said to them "dont worry, its just 20 minutes of my life im never ****ing getting back!"...........they didnt seem all to pleased.

[Victor Clark]

I hate it when people ask me stupid questions when I'm doing something! Whenever I'm reading a book, doing classwork or making doodles some jackass comes up to me and asks something like "When are you going to cut your hair, Victor?" (because me hair is down to the middle of my back). And I usually respond with, "I'll cut it when it tangles with my ass hair, does that answer your question?"

[Boozbie]

micro managing jesus i cant think of much that pisses me off more than some jackass of a boss who wont just leave you alone to do your job!!!

People who pretty much control the stereo when I'm driving. I like to listen to my rock music, but my sister is either listening to some white-trash country station or listening to one of her stupid-ass mix CDs! If I'm shifting my car down a highway inches away from 18-wheelers that can crush me into a pancake, I don't want to hear some honky-tonk song about a broken down pickup when I was halfway through a good AC/DC song!:x

[UNDEAD FRED]

Yep, people who feel like I have to listen to thier gangsta rap from thier car stereo.

That always bothered me. From a musical perspective, gangsta rap leaves a lot to be desired. My new Jeep will have the uber-sweet speakers with subwoofer.

A pet peeve I have is when people bait me into fights on the internet which I am proud to say that it has never happened to me here. Another is people that slup their food, people that talk on their cell phones in a movie theater. One last thing is unexpected visits from people late at night when i am sleeping.

I hate people who constantly ask me questions! What are you doing? What kind of car do you have? What color is it? What are you reading? Is it any good? Is your car a stick shift? Why aren't you talking to me? How's the weath-SHUT THE HELL UP!!!!!!!! And if I try to ignore the guys, they ask the same question over and over again until I answer! I've come to the point where I can't stand anyone at my school.

OMG, another pet peeve of mine... POSERS!!! OMG!!! They drive me insane! Oh, and I HATE stereotypes. I mean yes, I do stereotype, but I am aware that it isn't good and I feel bad after I do it but people who are like "Omg, you're so emo cuz you paint your fingernails black", should be wounded!!

[evilzombie20]

Well, this is a new pet peeve. I didn't really discover it until tonight. But now, it's there and I cannot deny it's presence.

I CAN'T STAND THE MOTHER ****ING FACT THAT SOME OF THE PEOPLE ON THIS BOARD REFUSE TO GROW UP AND DON'T REALIZE THE POTENTIAL DANGER OF SOMEONE TALKING ABOUT KILLING REAL PEOPLE. THEN GO ON A RANT ABOUT HOW SOMEONE GETS MORE PRIVILEDGES THAT THE REST OF US. MY GRANDMOTHER COULD'VE COMPLAINED ABOUT SOMETHING ON HERE AND IF IT WAS SOMETHING THE MODS THOUGHT SHOULD BE TAKEN DOWN, IT WAS GOING TO - EITHER WAY! I DON'T CARE IF SOME OF YOU SEE THIS AS A PERSONAL ATTACK, I COULD GIVE A SHIT LESS. THE POINT IS, MOST OF THOSE PEOPLE WHO POSTED IN THAT SECTION NEVER PARTICIPATED IN THE REST OF THE BOARD - BD DOES! AND HE'S NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO THOUGHT IT WAS NECESSARY TO TAKE THAT PART OF THE FORUM DOWN. IF YOU NOTICED, I - THAT'S RIGHT, ME - SAID SOMETHING ABOUT IT TOO. HE WAS JUST THE FIRST ONE TO BRING IT UP. SO ALL OF YOU WHO QUESTION THE MODS DECISION BECAUSE A CONTRIBUTING MEMBER HAD A CONCERN - GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. OBVIOUSLY YOUR BRAIN CAPAICITY CAN'T BE MUCH MORE OF A 10 YEAR OLD SCHOOL GIRL AND CAN'T HANDLE WHEN DECISIONS ARE MADE THAT BARELY AFFECT YOU! OH DEAR GOD THE UNDEAD SURVIVAL AND DEFENSE THREAD IS CLOSED - HOW WILL I LIVE!? YOU KNOW WHAT - GOOD RIDDANCE. THERE WERE PEOPLE IN THERE TALKING ABOUT KILLING THEIR FAMILIES! DO YOU KNOW WHO TALKS ABOUT THAT? COMPLETE NUT JOBS THAT'S WHO. ANYONE WHO EVEN CONSIDERS THAT SHOULD JUST BE LOCKED UP AND FORGOTTEN! IT'S SICK AND TWISTED TO EVEN MENTION THAT, LET ALONE HAVE AN ENTIRE DISCUSSION ABOUT IT.

GROW UP! LET IT GO! AND JUST ****ING MOVE ON! IT'S CLOSED. LET IT GO! AND FOR THOSE PEOPLE WHO HAVE SOME SORT OF PROBLEM WITH SAID MEMBER, GROW UP. LEAVE THEM ALONE AND THEY'LL LEAVE YOU ALONE. IT'S THAT SIMPLE. SURE, THEY MAY HAVE THEIR OPINION THAT YOU MAY NOT AGREE WITH, SO ****ING WHAT!? YOU WANT TO SIT AROUND AND BICKER LIKE 10 YEAR OLD SCHOOL GIRLS, FINE GO AHEAD - JUST DON'T WASTE EVERYONE ELSE'S TIME AND SPACE WITH IDIOTIC ACCUSATIONS OF PEOPLE GETTING SPECIAL TREATMENT BECAUSE THEY'RE FRIENDS WITH MODS. GUESS WHAT - I'M FRIENDS WITH PAIN, GOOD FRIENDS, AND DO YOU SEE HIM GIVING ME ANY SPECIAL TREATMENT? WELL DO YOU!? NO, YOU DON'T. THE FACT IS; BD CONTRIBUTES AND RARELY DOES HE SAY ANYTHING NEGATIVE ABOUT THE BOARD AND IF HE DOES; OR ANYONE FOR THAT MATTER, IT SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO. JUST GROW UP. IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH IT - THERE'S NOTHING FORCING YOU TO STAY. YOU'LL LIVE WITHOUT COMING HERE, I PROMISE.

There...now, I'm done. Back to normal.

[Boozbie]

OK im leaving that last one alone.....dam forgot what my pet peeve was now???......wait I got it I hate it when your at a party or something and everyone is chatting it up and you say something and it doesnt even register with everyone especially when it was a really funny!

ok it probaly wasn't that funny at all if no one laughs and acts like they didnt hear it...

Crap customer service

I AGREE 100%. I worked customer service for almost 5 years and for those 5 years I was the nicest, most responsible, willing to go the extra 5 miles for a customer sales representitive you ever met. Not something in some circles one would generally be proud of but damnit, I am!

Phew, finally got that off my chest.

That is annoying. My copy of the original Dawn of the Dead is double sided; half the movie on side a, half on side b. I still want to know why they did it that way.

I guess this may be a sure sign that I'm getting too old but I fruckin hate it when you go to a bar:drinking: and the band is playing so loud you can only talk between songs.

I second this, DVDs fit so nice in your TV cabinet, these crappy cases allways screw everything up. I hate double sided DVDs, the lettering is so small, making it hard to read.

[evilzombie20]

That is annoying. My copy of the original Dawn of the Dead is double sided; half the movie on side a, half on side b. I still want to know why they did it that way.

They couldn't fit the entire movie on one side, they had to put it on two which is very annoying. This applies to the DAY OF THE DEAD disc as well, the movie is on one side and the special features are on the other.

[Victor Clark]

I hate those cheap-ass portable CD players that don't have skip-proof!

Ordinarily that wouldn't bother me, but this goof was talking about how much he wanted one and asked me if I'd let him take it out for a drive. WTF?!?! I haven't even let my GF sit in the driver's seat yet, and this guy gets all insulted when I say NO.

He wanted you to actually let him drive your new jeep? Did you get the impression that he might of wanted to steal it? Or was he just your every day common garden variety of dip shit? Isnt that Tony Saprano country around there?

Yes, he did. I didn't really get the impression that he was thinking of swiping it, but as TBD so clearly stated, letting a complete stranger drive my new Jeep would be tantamount to letting anyone "borrow" my GF. I'll just chalk it up to "garden variety dipshit"; somebody who doesn't understand etiquette. FYI - Soprano country is north Jersey. I live in south Jersey, one town over from where they just busted the "Fort Dix Six".

I remember that. Southern California has a big homeless problem. I haven't really seen much of that since I moved out here. I can't remember the last time I saw somebody panhandling while standing on the center divide and nobody has hit me up for change since I moved out here.

Something else that annoyed me happened a couple of hours ago... I went to the WaWa (for those of you who have never heard of it, think "7-11"). I go walking up to the door and I notice a couple of teenage girls carrying the bags of stuff they had just bought. Being raised right, I do the polite thing and open the door for them. As they brush past me, they both shot me a disgusted look like I wasn't fit to lick dogshit off their shoes. I wasn't leering. I wasn't drooling. I wasn't rubbing my crotch against the doorframe. I'm wearing jeans & a scrub top. I don't look like some homeless perv. Very peculiar.

As I was leaving (carrying my big bulging bag o' munchies), I held the door open for a woman who was coming in. She looked to be in her early 40's, and she seemed honestly surprised that someone was holding the door open for her. She made eye contact, smiled, and actually said (not mumbled, but said) "Thank you". Color me amazed. There are times when a little bit of courtesy and civility can go a long way.

When people ask you about work things when you are on your own time. You wouldn't walk up to a grocer while he's walking his dog and ask him about the price of cabbage, so don't ask me when your job is going to be done while I'm on lunch with my friends.

Welcome to the world of IT. The users used to drive me nuts when they'd see me at the restaurant across the street from the hospital during lunch and they'd come ask me questions, especially if those questions were about their computers at home. The other thing they did that really annoyed me would be when they'd grab me as I was walking down the hall and ask if I could come take a look at their computer.

Call the help desk, jackass. That's why they're there. If they can't help you, they'll bump the call over to me.:x

[UNDEAD FRED]

It happens all the time on the job site, new construction homes. Especially since I am a foreman. You are kicking back on your lunch time, and the builder allways has some emergency that has to be taking care of. Tell me after lunch. Or they exspect you to give up your lunch to fix, or do something. Then try to ask them for a favor.

[Sambob]

Oh I do tell them to call the helpdesk, I have a system where I smile, pretend to listen, nod occasionaly then tell them to call the helpdesk and ignore them completely. Failing that I start laughing manically and walk off. I doubt I'm going to be there much longer.

[UNDEAD FRED]

The term "Your emergency does not necessarily consitute my immediate attention." comes to mind.

Here's a major pet peeve of mine...

I absolutely hate going to a fast food restaraunt and ordering with family or friends that are rude at the counter or drive-thru speaker. See, I used to work at McDonalds when I was like 14 and my twin sister worked across the street at Burger King and we'd both swap stories about how co-workers would piss in the pickle vat or spit in the "secret sauce" as it was being slathered on burgers. If you go with me to order any food, you're either polite or I drive away because I just don't relish stuffing other people's bodily secretions into my mouth.

[evilzombie20]

I hate it when customer service people are rude in general. It's like you're doing some kind of diservice to them by providing them with business. Some of them are just so bad you want to slam their head into the counter and let them know that if it wasn't for us, the consumers, they wouldn't have a job and even if one of us asks them to look something up - that's in the job description. I'm sorry I'm taking precious time away from your life but goddamn, IT'S YOUR JOB! Working customer service or in any form of retail requires you to have association with - guess who? THE CUSTOMER. And they may have questions! GASP! I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY COULD EVEN THINK THAT!!! WHAT NERVE!

Yeah, went to FYE the other day to buy the OLDBOY special edition for a friend and it rang up wrong so politely I brought it up to the sales representitive that it did, she actually went "Oh what the hell" and gave me a dirty look. Strike one.
I have a discount card, I hand it to her - mind you she's supposed to ask for it - then she says, "You're supposed given this to me BEFORE I rang this up - now I need to start over again."
Strike two. First off, I'm not SUPPOSED to do anything. YOU'RE supposed to ask me for the card before you start ringing things out and then go about with the sale. I know, I worked in retail. So after the painful transaction was completed I asked her to look up a game. I told her it was a game my little brother was looking for and I wasn't sure of the system.
She looks at me and goes, "You don't know what system it's for?"
I said, "No, I don't - it's supposed to be a surprise for my little brother and I overheard him asking for it on the phone. I just know the name."
Then she gives me another dirty look, sighs and says, "Well if you don't know the system how can I look it up? You should've found that out." Strike three.
So I ask if she can just try and look the game up by it's title, COLESEUM, as you can see I have no idea how to spell that word and apparently - neither does she because no she says, "Can you spell that?"
I said, "No actually I can't, but if you type in COL it should come up."
"Well if I do that I'll have a whole list to go through and I just don't feel like going through all that" comes out of her mouth. SAY WHA!? GOING THROUGH WHAT!? I USED TO WORK FOR THE SAME COMPANY - IT'S A GODDAMN LIST YOU HAVE TO GO THROUGH. I'M NOT ASKING YOU TO GO AROUND THE STORE TO PICK OUT EVERYTHING THAT STARTS WITH "COL". GODDAMN-BITCH-ASS-****! Pardon my French.
At this point I'm about ready to start reaming this girl a new one but I calmly look at her, sigh and say; "Thank you and have a good night."

So, today, I called the store to complain because I was unsatisfied with her and thought she was totally rude. I explained to the manager what happened and she was being all nice and polite. She says she'll take with the associate about what happened. I tried explaining I didn't want to get her fired or anything and I understand people have bad days or whatever, but that's no reason to be a complete bitch. I didn't use the word "bitch" mind you, I just simply said it was no reason to be rude. Then she says, "Well were you rude to her?"
I said, "Certainly not, I was actually quite pleasant towards her considering her attitude."
Now I'm starting to get a little aggrivated with the manager because I've got a feeling the girl I'm calling about is a friend of hers or something. I'm basing my idea of that due to the fact most of the people who work at this particular store are her friends. So now I realized I'm complaining about someone she's probably friends with. Then she comes out with the oh so brilliant, "Well she's not usually rude unless she's provoked."
'CUSE ME MUCH!? SO YOU MEAN TO TELL ME THERE'S BEEN COMPLAINTS BEFORE BUT SHE CLAIMS SHE WAS "PROVOKED"!? DO THESE PEOPLE HEAR THEMSELVES WHEN THEY TALK!?
So I calmly told her I didn't provoke her in any way and it wasn't my fault the merchandise was improperly marked and that she didn't ask for my discount card or know anything about the merchandise I was looking for. Now granted, I don't expect people who work in retail to know everything about everything in their store. Some people have stronger knowledge of certain products over others. But she didn't even make an attempt nor did she want to once I brought it up. The manager felt the need to remind me of this.
So I basically said, "Well I understand she might have had a bad night and you're going to speak with her. As a consumer who shops there often along with sending business to your store I thought you'd like to know about an unpleasant experience I had while in your store. My job as a consumer is to report this to you, the manager and for you to take it from there. So thank you for your time but I really must be going, have a good day."
She hangs up, after I hear her starting to laugh. :x

Yeah, if - big ****ing "if - I ever go back there again, they are going to wish I didn't because I know what makes a bad customer and I know EXACTLY how their security system works and what they look for in shoplifters. You don't screw with someone who's worked in retail in a retail outlet, you learn too much about the business and never forget the important stuff. :evil:

I think that dipshit needs to be taught a lesson. Start calling corporate or sending them e-mails. It sounds like the manager you dealt with handles the store as just a gathering of her friends. Tell upper management what you just told us. Don't let up until you get an apology from dipshit.

She dismissed you and laughed at you. Kick her ass.:evil:

[UNDEAD FRED]

People who call up wanting a certian item for free, and when you tell them no, they still beg. Money talks, bullshit walks.

[TheDeadHarlequinQueen]

People who come to your yardsales and make you feel bad for them by telling you that they are poor and trying to get you to GIVE them stuff. *rolls eyes* It's soo annoying.

[UNDEAD FRED]

Same yard sale pet peeve, you tell them a price of a item, they roll thier eyes, put it down, and leave without saying a word. Barter, its the American way buttheads.

Let them leave then Fred! I'll come by and buy all of your goodies!

Your not getting my The Walking Dead comics for cheap.

[Victor Clark]

I hate it when people say my name really loud just to annoy me. Whenever I go to my Biology class, all I hear is "VICTORRRR!!!" from 5 different asses! I wonder if they talk like that to women. "KATHYYYYY!!! SUSANNNNN!!!":lol:

[TheDeadHarlequinQueen]

I can't stand liars! I hate them with a passion!

[The Blind Dead]

I can't stand spoilers. Especially after only a week or two of a film being out. It shows a lack of self-control and consideration.

Yeah, I'm glad to see that so many users are being so devout about using the spoiler tags in the 28 Weeks Later thread.:doh:

Hey VICTORRRR! What's up buddy!:lol:

[Zombie King]

You know what down right pisses me off? When Chewy and BD complain about spoilers!!! Ha ha!!!

[Sambob]

I hate it when people who I barely know ask me personal questions and then get offended when I tell them it's none of their business.

Yeah, the whole thread should be flagged.

[UNDEAD FRED]

People who wont shut up and let you concentrate your job. just talk on and on. all it sounds like is blah, blah, blah. Shut up!!!:lol:

[Zombie King]

When you try to nibble on someone and they back off like a little bitch!

Try using some deodorant and mouth wash next time. http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y152/bzn123/Smileys/Characters/nerd3.gif




That annoying ad that pops up when I upload images to my Photobucket account. :x

[DentFoster]

Anybody that calls me or comes to my door wanting to sell something or save me from damnation.

[UNDEAD FRED]

Those annoying pop ups that say you won something.

[chewy]

Those annoying pop ups that say you won something.

That's what pop-up stoppers are for, Fred.:)

I know what you mean, though. Before I learned about the spyware/adware/malware that those suckers can install to your computer, I pretty much ignored them. After they all but fried my last computer, I took the needed steps to prevent them. Now my system is fairly secure. Sure it's annoying to have to hold down my CTRL key whenever I want to open a second browser window, but it definitely beats having to replace my hard drive again.

What bugs me during browsing is the full-motion ads that are embedded in certain web pages. They're at least 30 seconds long. It's bad enough having to wait for those to download when you have a broadband connection, but my heart goes out to people who only have dial-up.
