I was run off the road this morning by a lorry driver. I took down his company's name, number and the lorry's registration and called his company to complain when I got home. I was met by abuse from the transport manager and it got me thinking ......
2 things which really make my blood boil are bad/dangerous driving and bad customer service ..... so what makes you really angry?
Seeing people throw litter out of their cars ! Really gets me boiling evil . I got out once when sitting at red traffic lights and posted the McDonalds bag back thru the blokes window , god he looked shocked ! redface
Next one;
Motorway middle lane hoggers !!! :twisted:
I can go on all day about these , but i`m not biggrin
That's awful funlovers, I wish there was a way to take things like this further, but sadly it seems there isn't.
The thing which really annoys me is rudeness in it's many and varied forms. Simply from turning up late to something to just people being nasty and vile when there's no need in all areas of life. I just don't see the need to be an unctuous toad when it's rather nicer to be friendly and helpful.
As Mr Lecter said "discourtesy is unspeakably ugly to me" and I agree with him. Although I draw the line at eating Liver with fava beans and a nice Chianti. I find a light Semillon takes the edge off the iron in the liver...
FFFFVFVFVFFFFTTHHHH!!
With you on the rudeness, Res. I get really narked at the lack of manners from some people mad
Litterbugs piss me off no end too, especially when kids do it in front of their parents and they say nothing.
Bad drivers - get there quick or alive, your choice dunno
People poking their noses into others' business when A: they know nothing but one side of the story and B: they've no right to comment in the first place! evil
Drivers that go at speed striaght across not stopping at zebra crossings a child could get hurt or worse killed.
i cant stand bad parking, people who use up far to much space in areas where parking is limited. if you cant get i and out of a resonabe size space then fecking park somewhere else.
at the moment hating the little barstards who broke into my car sat evening smashing windows and burning interior. £120 excess to pay and lots of hassles with police, SOCO, insurance companys and garages.

Motorway middle lane hoggers !!!

Oh yes that is sooo annoying! ..... we may as well only have 2 lanes on our motorways because some people think it is so uncool to drive on the inside lane!!!
As a non-driver, I'm afraid I can't empathise with any of the driving-related incidents above.
Bad customer service however, oh my!
I abhor and loathe with a passion sales assistants who answer the phone whilst serving you at the till. mad
What is so difficult about a polite "Do you mind if I answer this as there appears to be noone else available?" and then to the customer on the phone "Do you mind holding until I locate a colleague who can help you as I am currently with a customer?" or some such dialogue?
Anyway, that's what you'd get from my staff... or they'd get a nasty Nola telling off!
I know my answer should be poverty, war,injustice etc, but actually it's the misspelling of definitely and apostrophe abuse!
mad

Ignorant drivers!!! Was driving through London on Sunday. Made a right turn on lights only to have a black cab driver pull over in front of me and abuse me cos I had supposedly got in his way. As he was coming into my left from a slip road at the time I wonder how he worked that one out! I gave him a perfect view of my middle fingers nail art as a reply. Don't think he liked the colour rotflmao

Those phone calls that always seem to happen when your are settled down under your laptop, hubby or mug of coffee and once you clamber out of said comfort to answer it they tunr out to be a BLOODY RECORDING!!!!!!!
How dare they? They can't even be bothered to be there to call me and they expect me to stand there in my sitting room and listen to their drivel and, presumably, buy something.
Actually I have no idea what they want since I have never listened past the first couple of words. Just long enough to identify it as a recording. But, seriously, how dare they?
A family all eating with their mouths wide open, chomp chomp bloody CHOMP right next to me in Costa Coffee.

Oh, don't tell me they thought they were supposed to eat the beans. I remember the first time that happened to me...

And of course from the other side of the fence as it were, customers who instead of saying "Excuse me could you help me?" say "Oi, you! I want you to get this, I can't be arsed". Yes, that's happened more than a few times, usually with a lot of ****ing expletives too..... rolleyes
Agree with a lot of this: middle lane hoggers, drivers who couldn't give a shit cutting u up and consequently slamming ya brakes on. Oh god, had this one crazy f*** on the motorway a cpl of weeks ago, swerving in and out of traffic, not indicating. I never get road rage but flashed the headlights like f*** and beeped the horn.
Also people who talk to u and treat u like shit, in a sarcastic way, yet u treat them with the upmost respect.
is respect earned? is it f***
Not to mention ass-holes who tail-gate you because they want to bully you into going faster, even though you are already doing the speed limit.

Just put the phone to the side and let it play to the end, its not costing you a penny but its bumping their costs up wink

Agree with that one Cherry.....bloody disgusting.
Arsehole customers who do you over, and you have to smile and say "that's fine" because you know you have no redress to the law and you've got more bookings with them in the future, make my blood boil mad
Any offshore customer support phone line!
Any area where we 'The public' are being ripped Fuel duty being piled on by the govt even though they have already increased revenue through increased oil prices. Or utility companies that have failed miserably to pass on reduced wholesale prices of gas to consumers.
One day we will get even.

Able bodied drivers using spaces for the disabled. Only treatment they deserve is a Monty Python type 100 ton weight dropping out of the sky on to their cars the instant they get out.
Selfish, self-centred and inconsiderate behaviour of all kinds.
