oh a really big pet peeve of is sneezers and coughers who don't cover up! i'm a germaphobe and am always using hand sanitizer and when i'm in a store and we have someone who is sneezing and not covering up, of course I say something, which horrifies my husband; he thinks we'll get gunned down. oh I seem to have remembered a ton of stuff; I will have to withdraw as I could type the afternoon away. happy thanksgiving to all of you; be blessed!!!!

People who use lotion or hand "sanitizer" in public and don't wipe it off things they touch, such as shopping carts, are among my major pet peeves. I have to keep paper towels in my pocket or else put my bag over the handles. Grosses me out.

I've heard that stuff doesn't work, btw.

1. When people come into a thread and post that "this thread has been going on a long time and should be closed". POLIZE?
2. People who walk thru doors in the middle instead of the door they are supposed to be going thru
3. People who talk on the phone and text while driving, I hate those people, they have no consideration what so ever for other people on the road
4. People who blow their noses while eating in a restaurant.
5. People who are really loud.

My pet peeve is people who are overly optimistic to the point of stupidity. This has gotten NASA in to trouble 2-3 times. This is pretty much what caused the housing crash.

Another pet peeve is digital sheep. The sad part is that this is a growing segment of the population.

People who use their own preferences as a basis for judgement.

as in: I didn't like the movie so it's a lousy movie.
I don't like that singer so they can't sing.


And of course anyone who disagrees is an idiot.

I feel like the hold up usually is someone sending things back (with in their rights...but...) or the workers being slow. I've gotten 7 drinks, meals, etc in a very short period of time...and at times it takes 10x longer to get 1
I just got this as a rep point "Good! It is extremely inconsiderate to hold up the drive thru ordering so many drinks. It's bad enough that you're taking your kids to Starbucks in the first place!"

Well It drives me nuts when people do this. So I thought I would reply. There is nothing wrong with occasionally going to starbucks with your kids. The day in question was our evening outing to go see Christmas lights.

I had managing 7 orders down to a science and didn't spend a ton of time doing it.

It was my family...not ordering for an office

and...yeah, unleashing 5 kids inside starbucks is a better option? Nope!

So...my CD pet peeve, and its at the top of my list, is when someone uses the rep system to say rude things and don't give you a chance to respond. Now THATS rude!

I don't take others behavior to my mind. If some one did something I just let it go I cannot make people correct either guide. So no I don't.
