Tiny Things That Annoy You • Page 359

worst is when it says show at 8 but they mean doors at 8 show at 9

 

Worst is when I presume they mean doors at 8 but it's show at 8 and I miss the opener I wanted to see

 

Could probably post this in the mental health thread too but feel like that thread is for more “serious” things than this since this is an annoyance that sometimes feels more substantial but whatever.

I constantly have to remind myself when it comes to work that everyone I work with is a child and I have to babysit them (metaphorically) and constantly keep an eye on them to make sure they’re doing things right so I can get my shit done right. But I sometimes forget that or just don’t have the energy to babysit adults and every single goddamn daily task so sometimes I say fuck it and let things spiral on their own without correction and in the moment it usually provides amusement, but eventually ends up costing me in the end or requiring a bunch of time to course correct and it is extremely annoying.

Every week my manager asks what she can help with and I say, “hire competent people (for entire company not just my department) or train these turkeys to do things right” and she just sighs and says, “yeah, I know”.

 

Update: I got my permanent crown in. It hurts a bit, but it’ll pass tomorrow probably

 

Healthy foods costing so much more than junk foods. I was always told that frozen meals were too expensive growing up but it's way more expensive to prepare healthier, home-cooked meals and fruits/veggies

 

I mean for fucks sake, a small 11 oz bag of pistachios is $11 dollars when I could get a party size Doritos for $4 lol

 

I feel that in my bones, i rang up a small bundle of asparagus the other day (something I’d expect to pay maybe $3-4) at self checkout and it was $8. Produce should be one of the cheapest thing in store. When I’m feeling bold I ring up most of my veggies as bananas.

 

Hahaha brilliant!

Yeah it's stressing me out lol my fiance and I are dieting together and our grocery shop is like $75 more expensive than usual >_>

 

I've been getting all my produce from the farmers market and trying to get what's in season but still spend a bit, tho I typically still spend less than my bf who eats meat so that's nice. I wish the convenient healthy food was cheaper tho cause sometimes sis is on the go!

 

The fact that I forgot where I place something so easily

 

International shipping. Why the fuck did people have too much goddamn time on their hands and need to make a bunch of bullshit red tape to get through to send something across some imaginary lines to another country.

the amount of time I’ve had to spend creating paper trails for broker/importer/tax bullshit for shipments that are like, two items worth $5 in value is absurd. WHY. Fuck off.

 

I was listening to Spotify in my browser, went to click on the tab to see what song was playing, but accidentally clicked the little X instead...

 

My credit card is withholding $840 from my available credit just because I have a pending temporary hold of $278 from a Walmart curbside pickup order and I have no idea why

If my credit limit is $1000, I would think I should have $722 available, but I only have $160

Really annoying as I'm trying to pay bills lol

 

It’s so hot outside and the wind isn’t even a cool breeze. The wind is hot too, like a literal gust of heat.

 

Ugh that sucks, summer seems to luckily be cooling down here. 68 out.

 

When you go shopping at a place that’s having a sale and you come across items that have the discount percentage but not the price.

It’s like great, it’s 25% off. But 25% off of what?!

 

When you have a leak in your roof, and the landlords tell you the guy will come fix it at 1pm, but you wake up at 8am on a Saturday morning to some dude walking on your roof

 

Or when something in the sale rack isn't on sale

 

And you don’t realize it until you’re at the register.

 

Imagine if it was Christmas today though!!!

 

GPS. Ever since I got a new phone, Siri doesn’t voice my gps and I have gotten lost because of it. Went in circles 5 times trying to get home from a friends about 2 hours away.the drive with no traffic should take me 1.5 hours. It kept telling to go different directions, rerouting, and telling me turn too soon, missing my turn, and then circling me around over and over. Taking me on unnecessary routes. All this and it’s near pitch black and I can’t see anything.

 

There are times I feel like Siri is actually getting worse. My homepod minis are almost unusable sometimes.

 

I like when Siri tells me “next light” or something like that. Now I have to guess based off how many feet it shows to tell me my exit is. I drove around in circles for 30 min because of it. I get anxiety when I’m driving some place unfamiliar but have been better, but it gets worse when I can’t see shit because there’s no street/road lights

 

Every time I go to the grocery store they are always out of the salads I like. Every other salad is in stock, but never the one I want. I’ve gone different days/times and it’s just always gone!

 

My area is probably going to get hit by Hurricane Idalia on Tuesday.
