For me its idiots... People that look at what they should do, realize they should do it, and then do the complete oposite...
As the saying goes "if ignorance is bliss, how come there are so many unhappy people in the world"

Grrr, i hate ignorant people, ive written several reports on them

You know the people im talking about, they push you to the ground, and when your leg hits them cause your plummiting out of control, they call you a jerk and flip you off, then threaten to kill you...

Oh, I'm an engineer who used to write software for big big construction machines, but now I mostly babysit projects and let the younger guys have all the fun. The moving on in my job was fine, the people I work with are great and I work with our plant in France and get to go there every year... sounds great, huh? Well, it was until I got a new boss and he's a... well... rhymes with "rick".

I just need to look at this as an exercise in dealing with difficult people. Heh.

Hmmm, things that get on my nerves? I have to go with the idiotic people one, that's always annoying. And how about people who hear one thing no matter WHAT you are trying to tell them? That's like one of my pet peeves. If I reiterate something, I'm probably doing so because you haven't figured out what I'm saying to begin with. So listen harder and use your brain.

Heh.

And looking for a full time job with benefits is pretty annoying too...

Cat, boss still being a pain, I see. At least my boss seems pretty cool. But then I haven't really really started and I'm only part time doing my OWN program.

Not much really gets under my skin anymore. I've come to learn that no one can hurt you if you don't let them, and I've taken this to heart. I just consider the source and move on, and let the incident roll off my back like water off a duck. The way I look at it is, why waste the energy getting really heated up because someone ELSE is being stupid?

But if I had to choose something, I'd say two things:

1. Lack of justice, by anyone concerning anything.
2. STOOOPID drivers, ranging from the farmers who wait until you're ten feet from them before pulling out in front of you in their tractors, to the people in cars who act like that to those who just cut in front of you then drive 10 miles an hour to those who drive with their cell phones glued to their ears.. They are all a menace to my driving, and hehe... my Baby Tang likes to go zoom-zoom, and gets really persnicketty when impeded....

Oh, jobs... mmmmm.... I work at a university here teaching a night class. Everyone backs off and does their own thing, as do I. I LOOOOVE the autonomy of it, no boss to deal with, hehehe!

Lucky, Graysith! I knew I should've stayed in college...

Yeah, Mara... he's still a pain, but today I made him nervous talking to human resources..hehe. Nothing serious, just having some fun with him... serves him right!

Bad drivers.. no kidding! Like the ones who never get over for merging traffic on the interstate or don't use a turn signal or leave the turn signal on when they aren't turning....or just plain don't get over when they are in the passing lane... etc,etc,etc.

Gee I feel better now.

Actually Graysith, I'm with you, life's to short to gripe all the time. If you can't do something about it, let it go. Now if my dang emotions would let me... it does get easier as you get older.

yeah, tailgators also annoy the heck out of me. And people who cut in front of you.

Drivers in general are annoying. I try to drive descent and it seems like everyone else on the road has forgotten the fact that SPEED LIMITS ARE POSTED FOR A REASON.

What really bugs me are teachers who let a child go for 3 YEARS without learning to read thenhand him over to a edu student tutoring for her practicum work and say here you go you can teach him to read when he's been "taught" for so long that he can't.... Grrrrrrrr - it's so not fair to this poor kid.
AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
