What annoys you?

Thieves and the lack of customer service! I was in Lowes the other day. You can't even get what you want without looking for the non-existent customer service from their employees. Power tools, locked in cages. Electrical items and wire, locked up in cages. When you ask to get something, they act like its a burden on them to do their job. No wonder Amazon is beating out retailers.

 

I try to buy stuff from brick and mortar as much as I can. I would hate to order everything online if b&m's went under.

 

It's a balancing act for sure. If retailers put everything out, customers can easily purchase the items without hassle. But thieves can easily run out with it too. So they lock it up, but if the customer can't get the item to the register they don't sell it. So maybe they cut down on theft, but do so by risking/losing sales.

Ironically, less sales generally equates to less labor allocated to stores, so fewer employees on the floor. Which leads to fewer sales and reduced theft deterrence - thus increased theft, more items locked up, less sales, less labor. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. It can become a vicious cycle.

 

The stupid wrappers on the tiny Halloween size individual kit Kats!
I don't want to spend 4 minutes trying to open something that takes 4 seconds to eat!
They should come unwrapped, in a giant container with 500 little , unwrapped kit Kats, with a big lid I can remove with one turn and an opening I can fit my hand in. Then I can stand there and eat handfuls until my stomach is full and feel happiness!
WTF!!

 

I just asked my wife if she'd open like 100 of them and put them in a container for me.
She ignored me.
She's annoying too.

 

How did @TaquitoBandito get a second account?

 

I believe he may be my doppelgänger.

 

I'm not into any of that dressing up like Pikachu sex party stuff, or whatever that means.

 

I think it should be legal for me to do a pit maneuver and then beat the shit out of anyone driving down the road messing with their phone.

 

If you got a Ace hardware close by hit it. They have what you need and most times someone greets you at the door asking what you need and leads you there.

 

Me neither. Seems like a lot of trouble to go through for like 2-3 seconds of pleasure. A lot like mini Kit Kat wrappers.

 

I think the phone should explode in their face if they try using it.

 

Policy here is Lowes doesn't stop thieves. That's why they put up cages. Said it's for employee safety. Can't have employees getting sued or stabbed on store property because they tackled a theif.

 

People in the left lanes doing ten miles an hour under the posted speed limit!!

 

Local store has hired security, he's actually County Deputy, I guess he got deputized by local LE. He has a very deterring look to him.
Nice guy, he took my buggy back for me.

 

True story but I got laughed at the last time I went into an Ace Hardware. This is why I order online.

Spoiler

I went in there asking for Super Lube and the guy gave me a "wtf, what are you looking for again" look. He asked me what I was using it for and I said it was for greasing a leadscrew that goes to my 3D printer. He called it in on his walkie-talkie and had to have another guy there help him find it. All three of us were walking around laughing about it.

 

Agreed when you can just fap---

Er, never mind.

 

SNOWBIRDS!!!

the rolling roadblock of old ladies in sedans...

They all leave the light together and take to the next light to get to 5 under the speed limit, so we can all stop...

 

This!!!!


“An economic divide that is widening': Almost a third of Americans earning $150,000 a year or more say they're living paycheck to paycheck and many rely on credit cards to close the gap”

I feel sooooo sorry for these people and I wish that I could help them out. WTH! Where do they come from? I suppose they are wanting someone to bail them out? HA HA! The definition of crazy!

 

Loud eaters drive me shit-house crazy. Whether they are making noise with the bag or chewing with their stupid mouth open, it makes my skin crawl.

 

Loud eaters make me wanna throw hot grease in their face.

 

This auto stop/start button on this rental highlander

it should default to off, not on

I have to turn it off EVERY damn time I start it

as does everyone on earth

nobody asked for this god forsaken button , I assure you no Texan did. You will die at a stop light from heat stroke

And the 4 cylinder turbo is the most laggy engine I have ever encountered

 

You can always live beyond your means if you are determined to.

 

I get annoyed when the TOYOTA dealership doesn't carry very common bolts or fittings for a very common model of Toyota vehicle.

*Phones up Toyota parts dept*

Me: Yes, I need ONE valve stem cap.

Parts moron: Uh, yeah, okay, what make, model and year.

Me: They are all the same!

Parts moron: Okay, do you have a VIN for me?

Me: FINE! It is...

Parts moron: Ohhhh, we will have to order those, we don't stock them. We can have them here next Thursday and they come in packages of 37. We can't sell them individually.

Me: WTF!?
