Christmas music. Who the fuck really wants to listen to that shit while shopping? It doesn't make me want to buy more. It makes me want to run the fuck out of the store before I slam my head into a wall.

Try working 3rd shift in a retail environment...Bing Crosby warbling away at 2AM, and you're locking in and can't get out, and you're alone with about 10 people, none of whom are of any interest to you.
You tend to resort to strange little games to stay sane.

Oh god they were playing on NOVEMBER 10th in the mall.

Christmas music should be prohibited outside the period of 2 weeks before Christmas.
What's with all this "Happy Holidays" junk. It's Christmas. Everyone says Happy Easter on Easter, Happy Thanksgiving on Thanksgiving, Happy Diwali on Diwali, etc etc so why not "Merry Christmas" on Christmas?
I should start wishing people "Happy Holidays" on their birthday, since it's not my birthday and I don't celebrate it.

I worked at a theatre which played the same 5 christmas songs over and over for months. Then at my next job my boss would start playing christmas music in october just because he knew it pissed us off

It's even worse when people expect you to open the door for them when the know you'll be home, or leave the door unlocked for whenever they get home. And knowing you'll be home, they sometimes leave their key behind.
Whenever I go out, the keys go in the right pocket, the cellphone in the left and wallet in the (left) ass. It's easy, and I've never had a problem being locked out, or had to ring anyone to open up, or ask that the door be left unlocked.
Responsibility: my roommates don't have it...even if I'm the youngest in the house.
(These are the people I mentioned back in September who yelled at me and told me to find a new place to live cause I wouldn't drive to downtown Toronto after being in school and working all day to get them and save them $20).

Also, I'm going to agree on the Christmas crap. I worked at Starbucks for two years before moving 3 months ago and not only were people extra rude and it was extra busy, but we had to listen to the same Christmas cd on repeat for two months. Uuuugh.

I know about that one. I had a room mate who would come home and play that fucking Dishwalla song over and over and over and over and over. Now whenever I hear Tell me all your thoughts on God, I automatically go into sniper mode.

People who can't be bothered to do a simple Google search on something, and instead post on a forum asking if anyone knows what this and that was. It's Google, probably the most popular and powerful search engine on the web. And the information IS out there, don't be so damned lazy and do some research instead of expecting everything to be spoonfed you whenever you ask what 2+2 is.
I do intensive research on shit and cross-reference photos and roster documents from various sources to obtain accurate information. Compared with that, Googling for some basic information shouldn't be that hard.

Dogs shitting on the floor. I'm dog sitting an english mastiff and a cavalier king charles spaniel and after I got to the house to let them out for a pee, the mastiff (Penny) decided to shit on the basement floor. Nasty.
