PET PEEVES
Here is one of my (many) pet peeves!
When you are paying out with the waitress, at a [#400080]restaurant [/#0000ff]and she picks up your money and asks "Do you need change?"
Well, hell yes I need change! Tonight we had a $100 dollar bill laying on the table with a tab for about $55.00.
The service was good - but not $45.00 good! It's almost like pandering when they ask that.
Even if it were a $20 dollar against a $17 tab, I want the change brought back to me - it's my decision as to how much to leave as a tip. I usually strive for 20% - unless I hear those 4 words...
"DO YOU NEED CHANGE?"
Does this bother anyone else? What are your pet peeves?

My biggest pet peeve i's careles's u'se of apostrophe's. It seeme's like it's become standard for la'zy people to put them before every "s" that finishe's a word.

Apostrophe's do not pluralize word's! There is a right time to u'se them and a lot of wrong time's.

That is one of my pet peeves too! They should never presume the remaining money is their tip unless they are told to keep the change!

And yes, this subject has been covered before
Still, it is comforting to get some of our pet peeves out there! One of my pet peeves, people that walk through the mall or stores so SLOWLY. How do they ever get anything done? Then they stop in mid-walk in the middle of the aisles and just stand there...just move over and let the rest of us by! Geez.

Admitting you have a problem is the first step to recovery LOL

Yeah! They bug me as well. Not as much the going slow-bit, but the sudden stops in the middle of the aisle! Do these people slam on their brakes in the middle of the freeway too?

I don't consider this thing called "skydiving" a problem and I don't want any recovery!!

My pet peeves are tangled phone cords and if all the clocks in my place don't read the exact same time. I will take a lot of time out of my day to fix both of these.

MY PET PEEVE:

People who use the phrase and them proceed to name several peeves. A pet peeve is only one hence the word "PET". Anymore and it is just a peeve?
