I hate when the Kahlua in my coffee separates and creates a beverage of varying strength throughout the cup. It keeps me up at night.

So you'd leave a dirty plate/cup etc in a work area all day/night until the cleaner comes in the next morning and removes it? :confused:

You're obviously one of the slobs I'm talking about.

Our cleaners come round at the end of the day collecting anything and stocking the dishwasher :cool:

The opinions of people on OcUK. Although it's quite interesting how different everyone is.

MLM aka pyramid schemes.

hmmmm.....any circumstances? Interesting, I must remember that.

It also relates to the minor thing that irritates me, and that is the subjective application of rules....it can be both frustrating and annoying.

Any circumstances in which the subject is actually being attacked, and not just being precious

Who has cleaners that come in the morning? That means all the muck has simply had hours to sit and stagnate more.

Our cleaners have always come round at the end of the day. They get in the way less too.

I hate it when I am drifting off to sleep and come up with the greatest idea in history. I know I will forget it if I don't write it down.

Then I either Wake up and have forgotten that I had an idea in the first place let alone what it was, or read a scribbled note next to my bed about how I should start a DVD rental van that sells sandwiches in Norwich.

People continually repeating things on their mobile phone because the signal is poor.

I'd of thought a cleaners job would be to hoover, mop, wipe surfaces and empty bins, not to clear up after lazy people.

Yea same here. They often come collect before I finished and leave.

It is not being lazy, the cleaners are employed to do their job as am I. My time is better spent doing other things as is my teams. This is in no way ePeen or bragging it is simple economics, the cost of each of my team spending 10mins a day doing this would come out to about a weeks salary of a cleaner.

People who chew with their mouths open!

Like I said, it depends not on the actual objective application of the rules, but the bias and subjective opinion of the person that is entrusted to enforce them...thanks for confirming that...again.

Edit: I see that the offending part of the post was removed, whether by the moderation team or the poster themselves I do not know, either way it is appreciated nonetheless.

People who say "I haven't broken my arm/leg/finger,etc,I've fractured it", it's the same damn thing!!!

People who buy more than 1 hard drive, setup some raid and think they are a storage guru.

People who have installed linux at home and think they are an experienced system administrator.

People who play in a clan and think they are a "pro-gamer"

People who....

Gah *RAGE*.

So you think that anyone that shows interest in something, thinks that they are a pro? Sounds like the problem is yours, sir.

People who cannot grasp the simple difference between their, they're and there and make no effort to do so either, seriously, unless you're (that one too, your and you're) retarded it should take about a minute to learn. Instantly makes the author look like a moron to me.

The guy behind me on the train crunching a carrot literally as loud as humanly possible.

The worst bit is I can hear when the next bite is coming as he is gasping every time he opens his mouth.

Not at all. It is the people who think that by simply owning something makes them an expert.
