Pet Peeves

1. People who don't offer their seat to the elderly on buses.
2. People who fumble for their wallet when boarding the bus, knowing full well that they have to pay the bus driver as soon as they board.
3. People who don't move down the bus when it's full, and there are obviously passengers waiting (trying!) to get on.
4. People who walk at exactly the same pace as me so I can't overtake or pull back.
5. People in customer service roles who do not possess any customer service skills.
6. Nosey people.
7. Arrogant people.
8. Rude people.
9. Exploitation of workers in third-world countries.
10. People who sit on the aisle side of the seat on a bus (or place their bag next to them), when there are clearly no other available seats for the standing passengers.
11. People using their umbrellas as parasols on a clear, sunny day. It's a freaking umbrella, there's no rain, so put it away! If you want to shield yourself from the sun's harmful rays, buy yourself a good pair of sunnies and a hat, and slap on some 30+ sunblock! Or buy a PARASOL!
12. When four buses all going the same route show up one after another (so three of the four buses are virtually empty); while other bus routes are denied extra buses, so passengers on these other bus routes must make do squeezing in on the existing buses on offer, resulting in jam-packed buses during peak hour, with many missing out on a spot on the bus and are forced to wait 20+ minutes for the next one.

AHHHHH.... It's nice to have a place to vent my frustrations!!!
