SH. I too have left full carts and gone elsewhere where there were long lines and no help in sight. Years ago a mgr came running over and asked what I was doing. I told him that I was not going to wait in a long line to give him MY money because he refuses to hire and help. He said, you can't do that, As I walked out the dr I said, I just did. POWDERMAN.

Powder- my dad had the same feeling. He often said " I'm not gonna wait in line to spend MY money." The feeling is carried on by myself and my children.

People at gun ranges that are careless where they point muzzles and idiots shooting pistols at rifle ranges. You'd think they would get a clue all the puffs of dirt kicking up way short of their targets! Makes me nervouse worrying about ricochettes.

And guys, it's not the long lines in stores that bother me, unless there's multiple checkouts but only one or two open, it's the cashiers that ignore those waiting while chatting about their life histories with the one person getting checked out. They aren't getting paid to visit with friends and need to do their dang jobs!

People who don't return the shopping cart and just leave it in the parking space.

Kimber. Your Dad was right. Fri morning I stopped in a $ general to get some cheese crackers on the way to the funeral home. Only 1 employee in the whole store and she was talking to a guy about a product on the floor. I went to the register and a woman was waiting on the cashier too, she had a cart piled high and already 15 + cans of cat food on the line. I took my crackers to the cashier and told her I'd go elsewhere. I lucked out Sat morning and got them. I like to keep some in the car in case Pattys sugar drops. POWDERMAN.

free roaming house cats are a big pet peeve for me.

Those are what I call targets of opportunity

When advertizers tell you that if you buy such-and-such you'll receive a "free" gift.

What other type of gift is there besides a free one? $:-\$

..also, people who park at gas pumps like its a parking spot to go inside and do their shopping instead of filling their tanks and getting the he!! out of the way. This is a really big one for me. Cant hardly stand it.

Years ago we were working at night at a mall. e came out to go to our hotel room (working out of town) and someone had pulled the front end of their car under the bumper of my truck , I assume because it was a 4 door 8 foot bed truck they figured they would make a statement about my leaving one small parking place. The parking lot was mesured in acres and maybe 20 cars were in it at 5 am. Well when the 4 of us got in the truck ( lightest one of us was pushing 230 ) the bumper and trl hitch sunk into their hood as we pulled off part of the body , grille and bumper came off . A policeman was watching and said don't worry about it we did nothing wrong as he was laughing.
