1. employers who believe that the solution to staff shortages is just to schedule more work for everyone.
2. employers who believe "I don't have time to do that" really means "You can put it on my calendar and I will just have to do it."
3. employers who believe that "thanks to this screwup by tech services, I don't have time to prepare for that site visit you scheduled me for in Montreal tomorrow, even though I said I didn't have time" really means "I'm willing to work until midnight preparing, and then get up at 2 am to get to the airport for my flight."
4. employers who believe "We can't do this job in montreal tomorrow, call the customer and ask him whether he wants to reschedule for thursday or cancel outright" really means "why don't you call the customer, and leave him a voice mail asking if Thursday would inconvenience him at all."
Four o'clock in the afternoon, and I still don't have a fucking answer....

That new plastic packaging that companies wrap EVERYTHING in these days...Thanks go out to the few companies that have perforated the back making life easy but for the vast majority that haven't, cracking in to one of these packages is a fu*king impossibility unless you have a knife with you.
I just cut the shit out of my hand trying to open up my new mp3 player...sonofabitch!!!!

When the plane that is carrying your parents back from Turkey is delayed, (and for some reason) at an entirely different airport. Especially when you have been waiting up all night to pick said parents up. :x

Fricking Yahoo Messenger that tells me to reinstall my webcam software in order to make it compatible with the new YM software updates, then have it not work at all, thus forcing me to send them a message trying to figure out what the darn problem is :x

1. Bad drivers
2. Jerks
3. People who use apostrophes to pluralize a word (i.e. "Fresh Cherries Here" should not be printed "Fresh Cherry's Here")

Supermarkets on the weekends. People are so stupid in grocery stores. Instead of pushing their cart to the side, they leave it in the middle of the stupid aisle. And on top of that big old fat Betty Joe who was pushing the cart stands on one side blocking the path while her husband/cousin Jimmy is standing on the other side of the cart.
I have nowhere to move and they certainly won't make an effort to get out of the way. That would be too easy.

The Wal-Mart in North Battleford. What a train wreck! Every time I go there it ends up in some sort of confrontation. You have to have a severe meth addicition or the rankest case of F.A.S. to even be considered for a job there.
Roid freak at my gym that keeps telling me how I do everything wrong. What kind of doctor shoots roids anyways? Asshole.
Any kind of cruelty to animals. The next time I see a puppy left in a car on a hot day I am smashing the windows and filling the interior with water for the puppy to swim in.
Humans.
