Tiny Things That Annoy You • Page 466

Bringing this back

 

seasonal allergies

literally tiny particles that annoy me

 

Craving a burger as soon as you wake up and not being able to do anything about it

 

Excitedly waiting for a package that was supposed to to arrive two days after it was shipped and ends up doing the following:

- Arrives on the ETA to a post office 20 miles from me
- ETA vanishes from tracking
- Package leaves MA and goes to TN
- After two days in TN, package makes its way back to MA and into my town’s post office. Hooray, finally! But wait…
- An hour later, it ends up in another town’s post office like 15 miles away
- Still no ETA

I also still want a burger.

I hate Mondays.

 

I had a package recently that got all the way to Atlanta and somehow ended up going to Pennsylvania next. I got it tho

 

Yeah there’s something very odd going on with shipping companies. My company shipped a customer something that was about to make it to their place, but then got rerouted to Orlando, then Louisiana, then got shipped to them (on the west coast)

 

I got a haircut today and nobody said anything about it. It's almost like I'm not the main character in everyone's lives. But then if people had said something about it I'd get all embarrassed and be like why are people perceiving me?? Basically I will just never be content lol

 

Also having to start at my own reflection the entire time I'm getting a haircut is rude af

 

I got hit with a sinus infection over the weekend and thought I got over it on Monday. But now it’s still sticking around and it’s irritating me to no end. My head’s still full of stuff and my throat is fucking with me. I could barely even talk today.

It’s driving me crazy because I physically feel fine. I’m not achy and fatigued like I usually am with a cold or fever (ironically, I feel great in that realm), but this stupid thing is holding me back. I just wanna work out and be active and stuff again. I’m getting so antsy

 

Tiny thing that annoys me to no end: When a colleague asks to get on a call with you when it's something that could easy be a Teams message or email.

 

Do they just want to hear your voice/see your face or something?

 

I mean who doesn't no but for real it's either my older or offshore colleagues so I know it's just how they like to do things, but stillllllll

 

Unless the call is recorded, it could be a tactic to avoid accountability

 

Email is just way better for communication IMO. Something my boss always says is “if it happened over the phone, it never actually happened”

 

"iF iTs NoT iN tHe NoTeS iT nEvEr HaPpEnEd"

i will light a fire to this building

 

Very good point

 

Being sick for days and that feeling of having to force yourself to finally shower when all you want to do is nap all day

 

Why do companies put artificial shit in stuff that doesn’t need it? Got some pickles last week and they’re super good. But I looked at the ingredients today and they add yellow #5 to them? What for?? Why do the pickles need to be more colorful?? Every other ingredient in there is fine…

 

When I want a snack but my cat is asleep on my lap. Not really an annoyance because she’s the cutest but I’m hungry.

 

I can’t find the tutorial of wrapping a head scarf that I liked.

 

That's how I feel about sugar sometimes. I buy a specific keto bread now even tho I'm not keto because every other bread I could find at that specific store (Safeway/Albertsons) had added sugar. And I have the biggest sweet tooth on the planet. But just as a matter of principle I don't need sugary bread for a sandwich!

 

The way the light shows through the bottom of my apartment door when I have all the lights off like I live in a dorm room or something

 

Oh yeah the lack of natural light depending on the room and time of day, meaning it's only when I leave my place that I sometimes realize my makeup isn't how I envisioned it

 

I feel like everything social revolves around drinking, at least near me, and I hate it. I’m trying to make friends but my options are very limited where I live. Every time I see a club or something that actually works with my schedule, it’s at a bar and they always make drinking a big part of it. So even if it’s a book club or something they make drinking a part of it. I don’t drink. I don’t really feel comfortable at bars and every time there’s always that one person who makes a big deal about me not drinking so I end up feeling uncomfortable and unwelcome and don’t feel like going back. My not drinking has zero impact on you so just leave me alone about it!!

 

I’m the same way. I rarely drink (I might have one or two a year, but that’s it) so social outings that don’t involve drinking are the only ones I’ll do. But that’s hard to come by…
