    People that press the elevator button when it's already pressed and lighted.

     

    People that use the wheelchair access button and wait 30 seconds for the door to open (like in my building) when they are carrying nothing nor are in a wheelchair.

     

    Boss that is meeting with me and answers every fucking phone call.

      Boss that is meeting with me and answers every fucking phone call.

       

      *sigh*  I get this too.  I hate it when my boss wants to meet in his office.  He'll also take calls on his cell phone.

        How else is he supposed to make you feel small and insignificant? Have some understanding for him, for god's sake!

          I thought runners were supposed to be happy people.  You know, from all those endorphins.

          You people have issues

              Where do you want people's sneezes and coughs to go? Sometimes they come on unexpectedly.  Sleeve? Elbow? Into the air? A Kleenex is not always a viable option.

               

              Elbow is perfectly acceptable.   Hands - ick.

                People who crowd in front of the doors at elevators and then don't move to let you out.

                  When it's all said and done, no one remembers how far we have run.  The only thing that matters is how we have loved.

                      Just a rant: I was driving through an intersection today (I had the green) and this lady with three kids in her stroller walked right in front of my car without even looking. Good thing I was. Blew my mind.

                        Agree, elbow is fine, hands are gross. I once saw a woman at the grocery store hack all over her hands and then proceed to go pawing through the cereal aisle. No cereal for me that day.

                            Yes...but that never happens!  Tight lips

                             

                            I guess we are all a grumpy bunch today. Big grin

                              Two things that do make me scratch my head a bit -- the toilets at my workplace are automatic flush.  In five years, not once has the toilet not immediately flushed behind me.  But somehow, someone manages to get the toilet to not flush behind them on a regular basis.  I'm always "Eww, gross!  Now, how did they manage that?"

                               

                              The second thing is how many people don't wash their hands after using the restroom.  Seriously, I am NOT touching that door handle!

                              When it's all said and done, no one remembers how far we have run.  The only thing that matters is how we have loved.

                                More disturbing was the woman who put her timesheet on the floor of the stall while she used the facilities.  Maybe she dislikes the payroll staff?
