Although, now that I think about it, when I have to wait behind someone carefully reversing into a parking spot, it is irritating :)

Ffffff! You gave me a flashback to the other day.

A guy in a Hilux bakkie with a moerse canopy on trying to reverse out of Greenacres parking lot. He had no power steering and even less strength in his arms to turn the steering wheel, and as a result of this he made no less than 18 motions of forward-backward-forward-backward to wiggle out of the parking lot. 9 minutes (!!!!!!) later he finally got going. He would have gotten out a lot sooner if only he would have judged his distance better. The parking attendant was just as useless and kept telling this guy to hit anchors when he got more than a metre and a half from the cars around him:mad:

Parking attendants who stand next to my car which triggers the distance sensors.

I know they are just trying to help but I don't like somebody standing behind the car when I'm reversing. It also places them at risk of being run over.

Crunch time on a project. Things are incredibly stressful. Lots of 15-16 hour days with my female colleague and partner in crime trying to salvage this clusterf#$k. Tired, stressed. Project manager completely AWOL and the rest of the team stuffing up anything they touch.

And coming home to comments like : "You want to spend more time with your work girlfriend than your family."

and veiled accusations of having an affair.

you dog. complaining about the big chick but then giving her some loving. suppose breaking down and building up is one strategy to go with.

Being a housewife. FFS getting up, unpacking the dish washer, making coffee, folding the washing... getting home, packing the dish washer, putting the clothes in the washing machine then the dryer... doing shopping, cleaning the car.

If I had to describe my ideal spouse it would be me.

When you write out an order for a customer for 1000 units to be delivered to the customer and you write on the order "Paid by EFT" - and then one of your employees comes to you and asks if they must deliver all 1000 units and how are they going to pay for it.

Predicting something that will irritate me in the future. Whenever something goes wrong in the country someone here will post 20% maths. It's happening already.

This.
To make it worse the thread where it happened was hardly even relevant.
Those people need infractions for thinking it's amusing to see the same dull reply over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over.

+1.

When my wife goes to the shops and doesn't answer her phone for 30 minutes. I'm already thinking which roads she would have travelled so that I can find her next to the road as quickly as possible. :(

When every sentence needs a new WhatsApp message because it's "free."

Charge them feckers and the whole message will come at once like the good old days of SMS.
