What Are Some Little Things People Do That Make You Mad?

If I post something somewhere, and it gets a bunch of views, but no replies. Watching that view counter go up without a single reply is frustrating.

Pay attention to me! Love me! I want your affections!

Did you guys hear something?


Man, one of my favorite jobs I ever had was a customer service job. Such a great opportunity to flex my smartass. It was a Starbucks, but it was sort of a perfect storm, because it was at a turnpike rest stop, so we got a lot of non-Starbucks type customers. Namely, older folks. They would come over pissed off that the Micky D's line was so long, and they'd yell at me "I just want a coffee. Just a normal coffee. None of that fancy crap. Ok?" The best comeback, I found, was to just tell them the price.

I had a lady come up with the same attitude. I'm standing there smiling "Hello, what can I get you?" She sighs "Just give me one Starbucks." I shout to my drink maker "One franchise please."

My favorite rude customer snark, however, was from a young business douchebag. He came up talking into his Bluetooth, wearing sunglasses and a poorly fitted suit. Somehow he was able to order a strawberry frapp (of course) in between being a big shot on his phoneless phone. I make the drink and hand it to him. When he grabs it in his hurry, he squeezes out some from the top and it runs down the cup. He says "Hold on. Hey, would ya mind wiping this off first?! This suit costs more than you make in a week." And as sincere and as dry as I could, I say "That suit costs $80?" Haha I felt like a damn champion. My boss ran to the back room an was keeled over in laughter.
