Pet peeves appear almost daily, even when you’re in the best of spirits. You’ll get behind the wheel, start driving somewhere and a car will crawl along on the highway in front. They finally get over and when you get about halfway beside them, they start thinking they’re in the Indianapolis 500. If they’d gone a normal speed to begin with, you wouldn’t have had a problem. Before you know it, you’re peeved.
I thought it might be fun to do a series of blog posts on this subject. We all have one or two that really get under our skin, so let’s hear ’em. Let’s save the road rages ones for next time. Maybe even future ones about restaurants, theaters and traveling as well. They all deserve their own blog posts.
Here are some general ones that immediately come to mind:
–Holding the door open for someone who not only doesn’t say thank you but doesn’t even make eye contact.
-Likewise, people who do not return a greeting. I’ve known several people who would just give me a cold icy glare when I’d say “good morning” or something to that effect. Bad form!
–Line-cutters – this has happened a few times recently. Every time I get irritated about it, I’m reminded of the lines I cut when I was younger. What goes around comes around, I guess.
Those are few to get us started. I’ll chime in again when I think of more. Leave yours in comments.
