Yes to everything you just said.

1. The "funny guy" who yells "Play 'Free Bird'" up at the band. It's just so original! No one has ever done that before. I'm sure everyone thinks you are very, very clever.

 

"Hitler had the right idea, he was just an underachiever! KILL 'EM ALL ADOLF!" - Bill Hicks after someone yelled Freebird at him.

 

Actually, the yelling of "Freebird" was originally meant as an insult. It's meant to be shouted at someone terrible.

Funny, my pet peeve is people who look at Bill Hicks as their infallible, truth-speaking Lord God and Savior. People do that with John Lennon all the time too. It's all kinds of ironic, because I would have thought Bill Hicks would have detested anybody who didn't think for themselves.

Pet Peeves from Work...

 

People who don't know how to close the cooler door.

People who eats the food they are going to buy before they buy it.

People who get gas run in plop the money down and run out when I have a line of customers before them.

People who buy one dollar or less items who puts down a bill larger than a $10 USD.

People who call me sir, haus, or anything else other than my name. If you don't know my name it means I don't want to know you.

People who take an hour to decide what to get then only gets a 99 cent bag of chips.

Or the can do what is right and not call me anything. They are to buy things, not to socialize. Another major pet peeve of mine is when a co-worker is late. I hate it when people are late. I always show up 15 to 10 minutes early to work to make sure I am on time. It is the responsible thing to do. Today was the third time my replacement was late and this time a whole hour and 10 minutes late! This time her excuse was "I didn't turn on my alarm." BOO FREAKING HOO! Take responsibility and don't pull crap like that. If you can't show up on time for work fine another job where you can.

 

Grrr...

If we all turned up early to work we'd waste just as many hundreds of man hours, you know... I'd rather my employees were one minute late than one minute early.

 

Then I can TRASH THEM WITIHIN AN INCHJ OF THEIR LIVES!

If I were your employee, Walsh, I'd come in late every day just to get a good thrashing. :)

Secret ploy for work politics ascendency number 37: arrive earlier than the boss / other co-workers.

 

Then one can see the others arrive, usually harried, and they see only a composed and already working person ... immediate psychological win.

 

Also good to stay later than others, because then one is seen as always working (earlier and later). doesn't take long for them to break down and cry and admit their inferiority.

Yep, I've done all of those. In a single visit too. I guess the behaviour can be attributed to a specific thing.

 

Seriously though, you need to chill... dawg.

I like to buy a token item to get change for a large note ... I know a friend of mine who used to get embarassed by his father's antics: he used to go into McDonalds and have them make change for $100 note. :))

People who can't relax and worry over every little detail like their lives depended on them being just right.

 

Relax. Breeeathe. It's not that important that you should drive yourself to distraction over it.

I'm often five to 10 minutes late for work. On those occasions, I try to stay five to 10 minutes late to make up for it though.

 

The big boss is content as long as we are sitting at our desks for eight hours a day and looking busy. I'm sure they notice me slinking in at 9:05 a.m., so I make sure they notice when I'm leaving later then my co-workers.

 

Of course, the boss of daily operations is in the office an extra half hour before everyone gets there and a half hour after everyone leaves, so I don't think I'll be upstaging him anytime soon.

Pet peeve: People that stand on the wrong side of escalators in Tube stations.

 

Oh yeah, that reminds me of another pet peeve: London Underground.

Particularly people who seem to be in a real hurry getting ahead of you onto the escalator only to just stand there, on the wrong side, as if they had all the time in the world.

^Yes, that is a good observation, Checkpoint. /God
