Tiny Things That Annoy You • Page 90

I worry about the girl I’m training. She has two and a half weeks of training and There’s stuff that she’s not picking up on. One MAJOR thing she keeps forgetting and it’s dangerous. (I only got a few days of training for the same position). I have to keep reminding her therefore I have to keep an eye on what she’s doing and I want to do less of that. I don’t expect her to be great but it’s almost like she doesn’t pay attention when I show her. I physically have her do it so she gets the hands on practice but she’ll ask me questions in stuff I want her to try first without me. It’s like she doesn’t try. Some stuff i don’t expect her to get right away because it took me a bit. Also key things I need her to learn she hasn’t had much of the opportunity-she’s “lucky” it’s not as crazy during her training but I tell her it gets really busy most of the time. But the downside is she doesn’t get as much practice. Also when I need her to learn these things when there’s opportunity, she’s no where to be found or she’s off doing something else. I’m doing half her job when she’s suppose to be learning. I don’t mind helping but I don’t want to do half her stuff when she really needs to learn it on her own or she’ll be way behind. She even walked away in the middle of me explaining something. It was a bit frustrating.
I can’t tell if she’s nervous or questions herself in what she knows. I have her show me what she already knows that way I can feel comfortable when she’s on her own instead of me having to keep showing her the same thing over and over. Also I’m suppose to show her how to do something that I don’t think I should be doing right away. I feel like it’ll confuse her, until she gets the hang of things

 

The TikTok videos with that “waking up in the morning...” audio

 

Too warm for boots, too cold for sneaks

 

people who parse all the wrong things from what you say

 

I've seen so many impassioned speeches interrupted either in real life or on TV shows that now anytime someone gives one I automatically expect them to be interrupted. it's this weird anxiety and I hate it

 

I feel attacked

 

Man I know we’ve gone hard on astrology in here before but like. Is this not a perfect example of why it’s so annoying?? This is a funny & relatable meme and w in t actual f does it have anything to do with being an aries? Like why did that have to be in there

 

I can't even pretend I get that, I have no general idea what kind of music this aries likes at all lol

 

waiting on updates

 

melted gum

 

I took my little brother to arcade and shit a fucking brick cause, um this right here is worth 4 tickets. Get the absolute fuck out of town with that bullshit

 

What am I lookin at here? Like the game is only worth 4 tickets max?

 

If that huge orange arrow lands inside that shiny purple area you win a lot of tickets, and somehow that arrow is not in the purple

 

Also my lil bro is autistic so, he wasn't pumped about it lol

 

Ohhhh okay. Yeah that’s garbage! Convinced most of those games are just rigged, it’s like the casino for kids lol

 

the smell of a nearby Burger King

 

When the “tear here” on packaging tears off but still doesn’t let you open the package so you gotta carefully cut the remainder off but not cut into the resealable part

 

Fuck yeah. Couldn’t be a more perfect post for this thread

 

When you come to the realization someone you have been speaking to for a decent amount of time, even though they are casually scrolling on phone, hasn't been listening to what you've said at all


It's worse when they weren't phone scrolling when you began talking but at some point just checked out of convo lol tell me stfu it's fine

 

I’m half frustrated and half annoyed. The girl I’m training just isn’t picking up on things. It seems like she wants an additional week of training on top of the 2 she already got. Mind you I only got a few days of training worked maybe a week and a half the covid shutdown happened. She doesn’t seem like she pays attention and walks away when I’m trying to show her something, letting her know I need her to know this and I need her to get comfortable doing this. I’m getting the feeling like
I’m going to have to do things for her when I shouldn’t. The impression she also gives comes off as she doesn’t care to learn. Like she’s not trying to learn.

 

I just want to add to my last post that I was coming in a little late for work but not that much late and she said she was “so lost” without me. I try not to get frustrated because she’s new and learning but this isn’t something you should be “lost” on by now.

I also ask her if there’s anything she wants me to show her or she’s unsure of and she says no. Then she has no clue what to do when I have her do something. She seems so uninterested and keeps asking if “this is something I’m suppose to do” like she wants to do the minimal. She’s not a “go-geter” and the type to jump in and want to learn.

 

when people use "fyi"

there's no way not to seem like a prick when you say that

 

Yeah I’ll use FYI with only the people closest to me that know my tone, but everyone else gets a “just a heads up” or something alternative

 

I only use FYI when forwarding work emails for useful information

 

Same with “friendly reminder”, 9 times out of 10 it sounds condescending as hell
