Things that drive you insane

I have noticed this in a few shops where they have a deli, serve food etc. But here is just one example, went into a small local shop where they have a deli but only one person to serve both as it is quiet so they can go between, with a friend and they order first, woman puts on the gloves, health and safety and all that, goes over to the till to take for the food all while wearing the gloves, touches the buttons on the till, takes the money while wearing them, and then ****ing dingus comes back and looks at me waiting to take my order all while I have been watching this play out with look of disgust on my face, I say I have changed my mind and move out of the way, she then prepares the order for the next customer behind me all while wearing the same gloves.

I understand that it must be difficult to run both the deli and the till at the same time but this is just a disgusting practice, everyone must know at this stage that money is one of the most filthy, germ ridden stuff that we touch on a daily basis. And this wasn't a once off I have seen her do this on a number of occasions. Seriously how long does it take to throw on a new pair of gloves.

This is just one of those things that really pisses me righty off

When the TV is so loud in the room next door and you're trying to sleep but you can hear the muffled noises from it through the wall.

On the topic of deli counters ....

I get driven demented with rage when upon opening my spicy chicken roll with mayo and cheese, only to find bits of ****ing lettuce, red cabbage and onion spread throughout the mayo. Centra are whooores for this.

Pure dense and lazy deli attendants.

People who drive at 60-80km on straight roads when the speed limit is 100km/ph.

They're OK. I don't mind them, because they're easy to overtake.

What drives me insane however, is the fuckwits who tailgate them with no intention of overtaking and leaving you no space in between to take each car one-by-one, which means that you either have to overtake everything in front of you in one go, or sit behind them and drive at a snail's pace for the rest of your journey.

When your waiting at the till in Aldi and there is one teller letting the queue grow and grow. You finally get to the belt and ready to place your goods on it when another till opens with a cry of "Next over here please"
Although you are ahead of others all those behind rush over and take there place.
There you are last in two queues then.
Really gets my goat up so much that when its my turn and the teller is half way through the messages and asks "Cash or Laser" I reply "I dont know yet until I see the total"

Ice-cream vans going around at nine at night, sounding off their sometimes too loud music.

People who drive half in/half out of the hard shoulder while driving at the limit or over.

People who indicate only as they start the turn.

People who basically brake to a standstill before going around every corner.

People who drive too fast and bully others out of the way.

People who drive to slow and bully others by holding them up.

Having to file a flight-plan for a VFR flight.

People in general.
