No, you loving tell me how much you're offering and I'll decide if I want to apply. Don't ask me so you can either throw out my application for asking for too much or hire me for less than you'd have paid someone else because you know I'll put up with it. This question should be illegal.

I’ve said it before my my main pet peeve with that is the person who complains if someone is leaving earlier even if that person arrives earlier. Granted as long as someone is getting their job done I wouldn’t really care if someone was leaving early anyway. I doubt they would be that much more productive in that time as long as they weren’t blowing off work

I'm currently trying to listen to an online training webinar, and the speaker has a hacking wet cough and -- GUUHHGHSHGH -- is audibly snorting up her mucus into her throat.  It's 3 minutes into the webinar, I need it for my job, but Jesus CHRIST, this is torture. Maybe 50% of all my posts in this thread are complaining about webinar speakers' voices, and maybe I'm unusually sensitive to sound or something, but for the love of God, if your job involves recording your voice for others to hear: 1)  Don't loving snort your snot into the microphone 2) Get some loving elocution lessons or practice first or SOMETHING, dear God, so we don't have to listen to you lisp/drone/whine/screech/uhhhhhmmmmmm for an hour. This includes Ira Glass and Sarah Vowell, who are abominable.

The best. The absolute loving best. Was when I was on a conference call, and some chucklefuck put the call on hold, so it played his company's hold music. Then the host of the call couldn't figure out how to mute or disconnect that person, so he re-hosted the call and got everyone to call in again. Guess who didn't bother calling in again. Go on, have a guess.

Pizza delivery people. Not only are you half an hour late despite having 2 hours lead time before my scheduled delivery, the delivery guy doesn't say a single word. He just hands me the pizza and starts walking away. I paid by card and called after him like "hey don't you want your tip and don't i have to sign?". He didn't say a thing, and I gladly put 0 dollars in the tip line because I'm sure this fucker would have written in his own tip if I hadn't. Franchises are what is wrong with businesses. If you are so big you need to let unqualified people with no standards run your branches, you are being presumptuous. I complained once, got a free coupon, used it, ordered again tonight and now I will never order from it again unless I get a scanned copy of every staffmember's termination notice at this location, and I told them this in my complaint, which I'm sure will be ignored since I headed it with "do not send me any more drat coupons i will throw them out". I want to see heads roll, not get more bad food almost an hour after it is scheduled to be delivered.

I've been seeing a lot of pictures lately where it's a screenshot of a Facebook post or something, and there are black bars over stuff like they were trying to cover it up but it's only 80-90% black so you can still completely read the text. How do you do that on accident? Why would you do that on accident and then post it anyway? It just bothers me because it's so stupid. And why are people redacting names from stuff that was posted publicly? Then when I point out that I can still read all of it, somehow I'm the rear end in a top hat that's invading privacy.

Woolworths have turned the weight sensors back on on their self checkouts, so now if you bring your own bag (which most people do now that they're not giving out free plastic bags) you've got to get a staff member to come and override it or waste time piling everything onto the scanner before transferring it into a bag at the end. Hopefully it won't take long for them to remember why they disabled the sensors in the first place and turn them back off again.

If I can't find an employee to come do an override, I just hit the scale really hard and it lets me finish without complaining again. I don't know why it works, but it works every time.

It's possible the pizza delivery person was having a bad night and could not give a rat's rear end about you or your lovely pizza. I've never had a food delivery person just wordlessly hand over food and walk away.

My pet peeve is when answering a call I need to verify the caller (telco company) and 6/10 customers don't know it and 1/10 start arguing why they should not have to give it. Getting the 6/10 to just guess what it could be (19/20 guess correctly) is like pulling teeth. Getting the 1/10 to stop whining takes much longer than just guessing anything and letting me move on to other verification methods. Do these people not understand why we verify and that every company on the planet will verify before doing anything

Some people get real mad at the existence of certain toppings on pizza (chicken, BBQ sauce, pineapple as the top 3 probably) But I recently discovered that my favorite pizza is a local shop's Olive oil instead of pizza sauce Overcooked tiny potato cubes Garlic cloves Bacon lardons Egg Yolk Mega thin crust And so I can never have any opinion on pizza bastardry ever again

My previous AND current employers had/have regular office-wide meetings for which pizza was always ordered and neither employer was capable of ordering a goddamn normal cheese pizza. I'm vegetarian (carnivores get normal pepperoni pizza) but I don't want your weird ~unique~ artsy poo poo pizza! Spinach isn't a sauce!!

I don't like pineapple on pizza, but that's because I don't like pineapple to begin with. I like pineapple juice, though, so I think it's just a texture thing. Barbecue sauce and chicken can totally go on a pizza, even at the same time, and you're weird if you think that's gross.
