Pet Peeves - What Pisses You Off?

BURNERS - as in, people who attend the Burning Man festival. They trash the desert, they leave trash everywhere as they leave, they trash all the car washes with their filth, they drive piece of shit trash for vehicles on 2-lane highway doing 30 MPH and never pulling over to let the 30 vehicles behind it pass and they just don't give a shit. These people are rude, self-important and entitled trash and I can't stand them.

Entitled self-important Californians.

While we were up in Shaver Lake this weekend, we stopped in at a local deli/coffee shop to get some breakfast and the lines were out the door. There was one for food and another for coffee. But hey, I'll just wait like everyone else. So, I waited in line to order food and then waited in the other line to get a coffee. As luck would have it, I was the last guy in line for coffee after the rush and as I got close to the counter, a self-important Range Rover type of lady stepped in front of me and stood in front of the counter. After she noticed that I was kind of glaring at her, she asked if I was in line or something to which I politely responded, "yes". She then went on to say how the line over by the food section was too long so she though she could just come over hear and pay for the monkey bread she was wanting to buy. To this, I let her know that I've waited in both lines and for over half an hour now. When the barista came up, she apologized to me for how long it's been taking and then took my order but as soon as she did, the FUCKIN entitled bitch butted in and asked the barista, "can I just pay for this here - the line over there is too long". And so the barista said, sure - looked at me in a way to ask, "would that be okay" and I politely nodded. Of course, the monkey bread needed to be heated up and so now the barista had to take it around back to have it microwaved in the kitchen and after waiting a few minutes, she came back to say, "the microwave there isn't working - I'll have to take it all the way over to the other side of the shop and do it there. Need I say, MY ORDER had yet to even get started. Long story short, the fucking entitled bitch finally got what she wanted after only waiting a few minutes and almost 45 minutes in, I finally got my coffee and without even a "thank you" from the little shit who proceeded to go out to her Range Rover and drive off. :mad:

Along the lines of having to wait in a fuckin coffee line, at the same place in Shaver Lake and before the fuckin entitled bitch, there was this young BMW gen z couple with nothing better to do than to stand in line and be all lovey dovey. When the get to the counter to place their order, the gal places a very complicated order to which, the very nice barista was able to make after quite a bit of effort and time. When the barista brings the coffee concoction to the counter and starts to ring her up, the guy says, "hey, make another one of those for me". Like... really?? You couldn't have just said "make two of them" so that the barista can whip them up at the same time??? And really, what kind of fuckin dude orders a fancy froofoo girls drink anyway?? :rolleyes:

So, at the same coffee shop, there was this middle aged round guy with clearly, way too much money and all of which was earned by never using his pretty hands and after placing a complicated order that took the better part of 5 minutes to explain and with 3 shots of something that would make it hard to put ice in the cup, he steps back, waits a good 5-10 minutes, you know, because it's a complicated order and then yells to the back to get the gal work on it to stop what she's doing, make her come back to the counter and then asks again to verify that she got it right - all the while making everyone else WAIT to order a fuckin cup of coffee. Guys like this, I really hate.

I literally can go on and on and just at this one place.

This is the best thing about owning my own coffee business. I've modeled it pretty blue collar and don't have to deal with many of those types. I mean really how good can a cup of coffee be coming from an off road named place...haha. I can make frilly foo foo drinks but my main customer base appreciates the taste of coffee not sugar and plant based milks (unless lactose intolerant). Plus as the owner I can tell self entitled ass hats to fuck off which is what I'd have done if that gentleman questioned my abilities. The truth of the matter is that I've learned the majority of coffee drinkers have no clue what they're drinking. They don't know the difference between a latte, cold brew, or a shot of straight espresso.

Modern day hippies.
 
The language thing really does piss me off. If someone from the US moved to a different country the people there would EXPECT them to learn the language and treat them badly if they didn't.
But when they move here they expect us to learn their language. I have no issue with someone who has recently migrated and they don't know English as long as they are trying. In my position we have a lot of workers who do not know English. Among them are two types:
1. Working hard to learn and getting better all of the time.
2. Don't try, and NEVER intend to do so. These are the people that act all pissy when I am trying to help them with something but I don't speak spanish. I wish I could get away with ripping into them but I would probably loose my job.

The thing about the first group is they are all ages and all backgrounds. I have worked with people in their late fifties who are working hard to learn English. So age is not an excuse....

If you move to a country that speaks a different language...LEARN THE F_ING LANGUAGE!
