      Re: What is your biggest pet peeve?

      When I was a cashier at Sam's Club, one dude always came to my line. Didn't matter if the other lines we shorter. Ticked me off. He owned a local BBQ business so he'd have 3 pallets full of stuff that had to all be transferred to new pallets.

      People with attitudes didn't really phase me. I wasn't getting paid enough to care or let it bother me.

      Gotta say it was fun working at the membership desk. Low volume of traffic, very few things to return at the end of the night, you actually get to take scheduled breaks (when you cashier they seem to think to scheduled breaks and official time to get off are "suggestions").

      Glad I've never had to work a black friday.

        Wine drinkers who look down upon beer drinkers......I never understood that.....

        But today at the grocery store, this guy had about 4 cases of beer in his shopping cart and this other couple had 4 bottles of wine in their shopping cart. Why did the wine drinkers look at the guy with the beer as though he was the scum of the earth ?

        Kind of like one of my friends from Chicago, she drinks wine damn near everyday but yet she talks about people who drink beer everyday.

          Yeah me either. Like drinking one makes you somehow be a better person than the other. I like both but yeah i can't stand "wine snobs" either.

            Forgot to mention that I hate when people use the word "ghetto" to describe everything thing that is second-rate.

                I remember a woman came in the theatre with 3 young kids to see Step Brothers. They left after about 10 minutes.

                  And drinkers who look down upon non-drinkers. I'm a drinker but I have some friends who do not drink and it doesn't change anything, but they always get crap from people.

                    The best movie for people leaving early was Borat. I almost wanted to leave early. My gf at the time wanted to see it.

                      I really don't get why people do this, I mean if you can't get a sitter then just go to a redbox or something similar. I mean its one thing if you are at a movie geared towards children or at a very early showing but anything else is rude and annoying.

                          People who order online but can't even put in their orders right. Whether that's address, phone number, what they're ordering, or payment. There are some serious idiots out there. That's why if anyone ever snaps out at me and says, "Any idiot could do this job," well, I can tell them, without being unprofessional about it, that that's just not the case.

                              This is a big one for me since I don't really drink that much anymore. I'll have a mixed drink here or there, but I'm well past the days of getting blacked out drunk or getting drunk enough that I don't think I should drive home.

                              Since I changed and stopped drinking as much as I did my sophomore/junior years of college (and to a lesser extent senior year), I can't count the number of times my friends have called me a ***** or something along those lines. It's like...I don't need to get drunk to have fun, nor do I enjoy the feeling of not being able to control my actions, nor do I enjoy hangovers and/or not being able to remember things that I did the night before.

                              Not to mention there are some personal reasons I don't get drunk that I don't feel like I need to share with my friends - that is, every single male in my family is an alcoholic and it cost my father his marriage, my grandfather the respect of his son, one of my uncles had his house foreclosed and had to file bankruptcy, my cousins are generally wastes. I'm aiming to break that cycle because I don't want to end up like them.

                                Yeah I have a drink 3 or 4 days a week, but the last time I was drunk was in July. I don't drink to get wasted anymore, and after a few beers I call it quits. I get crap from some people when I stop drinking. I'm not a big fan of hangovers or getting a DUI, like a guy I work with last night got.
