Good morning peevers.

Just grabbing a couple of minutes here.

Since I sat down the phone has rung three times and now there's someone at the door.

I used to know someone like that back in Az, very annoying, that person would just not let you get a word in edgewise. Sometimes Id just hang up because Id get so annoyed at trying to say something, or respond in conversation, when you just cant! Thanks for the peever.

Being interrupted while I am trying to get something done is really annoying. Then there are people who just constantly interrupt. Seems like when they are around nothing gets done...

Great peeve, Jezer

Ooh....I hate that. Like one phone call is that important. I'm sure a person can live without picking up their cell phone as soon as it rings What does it make them feel important? I just don't get it. Grown adults interrupting everyone to pick up their phone when you know it's not an emergency

It absolutely drives me up the wall when I'm trying to work and every couple of seconds I get interrupted. What's even worse is when someone can tell I'm obviously working and still comes in, plops down and start yacking

Why are you paying the bill if it's dead?
