Crumbs in the butter and other Pet Peeves!

Kätzchen · 02-17-2018, 10:37 AM

No more having to wait at the post office for me, we finally got new mail boxes at home.

However, I dare say that it's an "Crumbs in the butter" type thing for me when my mom goes 'silent' --- which is often a sign that something has gone wrong in her world and that she'll be calling, most likely ... today.

In other news ....

It nearly always irks me when the bus or train is late or when you just get off the train to catch the bus? The bus rolls by as if the driver doesn't see you waiting for them to stop and pick you up. Now THAT ticks me off, every single time.

Having to tell a waiter or waitress I got the wrong food order! H E L L O you took and wrote up the order you shouldn't have to be told it wrong, you should notice that before you bring it out from the kitchen..........

DISCLAIMER: I realize being a waitress is a tough job and it's a job I've never held but still....

I did that Valentine's Day. There's a bakery here that's only open for half the day 6 days a week and they are verrrry popular. DC loves their Boston Cream donuts, so I went to pick Him up a couple and after I'd been in line about 30 minutes, I hear this from the back of the house, "No more Bostons! The injector's broke!". I crane my head to see if they had any more on the tray and they are all out. Just when I'm contemplating choosing something else or walking out, I see the éclairs. It's a giant Boston Cream, basically. There are 3 left. The woman in front of me takes one. I took the last 2.

Do I feel bad about it? Not a bit. I do feel annoyed that the bakery didn't think ahead and make more donuts than usual. The day before was Fat Tuesday and they ran out of inventory then too. Tsk, tsk....

Going into a store that I'm unfamiliar with and not being able to find a clerk to ask a question I have..............
