I have a couple that consistently wind me up but deep breathes and a moment to reflect usually restore balance ! 🤔

1 checkouts (when I use them and not self service) where the assistant does not fire the next customer separator to the end of the belt

2 people taking a seat in cafes before being served especially when it’s busy

In the grand scheme not exactly fundamental issues but do temporarily raise the BOD pressure in not the best of ways

I hate the self service tills, the other day it started shouting at me “unexpected item in the bagging area” I looked down and saw a bottle of shampoo, as a bald man I found it rather rude.

Well they probably do number 2 to make sure they get a seat. Otherwise you go to order your food to eat in and all the ruddy seats have gone and you’re standing there with a full and heavy tray looking forlornly at folk who are making that 1 cup of tea last!

For me? It’s cashiers who talk to the customer in front when the shopping has been packed up and you’re waiting for her to get cracking on scanning your items. “Don’t mind me love, you finish your conversation first”

Somewhere dark and gloomy

The second one is just common sense, why order and then not be able to find anywhere to sit?

People who lean over the trolleys at supermarkets, stand the fuck up straight!

People who stand in the middle of the aisle chatting.

People who drive at 15mph in 20/30 zones (I'm from Wales, a lot of the roads are 20mph). Like some just enjoy dawdling along without a care in the world, whereas others have shit to do. 😁.

Peel off plastic film on packaged food that doesn't fucking peel off, despite there being an overhanging corner containing the words 'peel here'.

Similarly.....Fray Bentos pie tins that wouldn't open if you used a fucking laser beam. 😬😬😡😡🤬🤬

No. 2, absolutely, especially as I’m often on my own so can’t save a seat and get served at the same time (if anyone has a solution to this feel free to DM me).

Also, People walking along the street concentrating on their phones and not where they are going.

You could just use your dentures since the bed only needs clamping overnight.

When the flight stewardess tells passengers to return to their seats because we are about to land and people still get up to try and use the toilet.

Shopping and there are no baskets left and you have to search for one at the checkouts.

When you wait for the cooked chickens to be reduced and you find somebody bought the lot for their dog.

WC when the dryer doesn't work.

When you wait for your bus and it can't pull in because there is another bus in the way, and your bus just drives on.

When you get the overnight ferry and try to sleep in the quiet lounge and there are children at 3am running about and playing cartoons and music on their phones.

One should definitely only do number 2 once one has a seat…

When In a que to be served at the shop there’s always some inconsiderate cunt in front of you who takes absolutely fucking ages things like waiting till the person serving has said the total to then start digging about in their bag to find their purse or those that take bastard ages deciding what stinking fucking vape they want. Almost every day something reminds me why I detest humanity ha

I'd say that's more than a little annoyance.

Ads on youtube in the middle of the clip, fuck me just waite a minute till the end. It only makes me hate the product or service and advertisers.

Ice cream that's just too frozen to get out of the tub.

TV presenters with smug look because they have huge paycheck. Stay with us we'll be back in a minute

Items at checkout that call an assistant for no reason.

That really annoys the fuck out of me.

The clue is in the phrase "bagging area" - i.e. you bag the stuff immediately after you have scanned it. There is even a prompt at the start of the self checkout process that asks if you have brought your own bags so you can place them in the bagging area before you even start scanning.

And for whatever reason the people who engage in this practice are almost always chronically slow at performing the actual packing they should have been doing whilst they were scanning. Watching someone who previously made a conscious decision to take an item from the shelf, put it in their basket/trolley, scan it then pay for it only to then examine it like it had somehow become a mysterious alien artefact before actually bagging it - all whilst you're stuck in the self-service queue waiting for them to finish packing - really boils my piss.
