I don't know if this is the real reason but I've heard it's to prevent fraud. If a check says 20$, someone could change it to 120$. There's no room for additions when the dollar sign is in front.

if you’re going to require that everyone uses hand sanitizer before shopping, don’t loving put out the most perfumey garbage you can find. i’ve washed my hands like 5-6 times and i can still smell it. just go scent free for gently caress’s sake. horrible

I hate how watery a lot of sanitiser is. I go at the pump expecting it to be thicker like a soap, but end up hitting it too hard and it just ends up everywhere. It's like "Welp, at least my trousers are disinfected now..."

I work at a store that carries hand sanitizer (along with other products, of course). Lately, we've been getting lavender-scented stuff more than anything else we've ordered. I don't dislike lavender, in small doses. Since it's the scent that we have the most of, it's the one we pull for customer and employee use, which means I smell lavender for half the goddamn day. Also, I've worked at that store for years, we sell a bunch of lavender-scented products (soaps, lotions, hand sanitizer), and I still want to write "lavendar" half the time. I noticed that at least one of the price tags was spelled that way (until I corrected it), so somebody else in the company has the same problem. Lavender is my pet peeve right now.

Online services keep sending me “free month” offers when they know full well that I’ve been a customer before and therefore don’t qualify for the free month.

docbeard posted:I used to live in a building where if you didn't come to one specific entrance (out of four or five) you had equal chances of finding your way to the Magic Kingdom of Narnia as to my apartment. So I put elaborate directions in (as much as I could with the 8 characters I'm allowed to use for directions in whichever app) and occasionally the drivers even read and followed them... Try Wells Fargo Place in St. Paul. It makes so little sense that you need a guide. It's almost like a mall on the lower floors and the offices are in the tower. You need door and elevator codes all over the place and parking makes no sense. If you park in the ramp, you end up walking by an indoor bar that appears to have no normal access. If you walk outside, you can't get back in. You have to walk around inside until you find the security desk and they'll show you where to go. They can't describe it to you. They literally have to walk you there. You get lost leaving too. You can't find the right entrance or exit. I never saw Wells Fargo when I was there. The main entrance puts you in by a Subway restaurant. How does that even work. Eventually you just sort of have to cry. You get so turned around and frustrated.

"Yea" and "yeah" are not homophones. When people write the former (which rhymes with "day") meaning the latter (which... does not), it drives me nuts.

I don't mind "yea" because I read everything after it in an over the top Shakespearean accent, which usually improves things.

I used to have professional exams in a great building in London. It looked like a slightly tatty, old but expensive hotel inside, all fake marble, polished brass fittings, dingy red carpet. And it just has. no. rooms. The whole place is endless empty staircases, lifts and corridors, until after going up three floors and back down two you come to a little waiting area with some exam rooms, nesting inside this absurd labyrinth. Don't think I ever managed to come out through the same door I went in. It was one of the London Wall buildings if anyone knows the area.

the worst time in fashion was around 2008-2009 when you simply couldnt find normal crewneck sweaters for men. i remember going into 6 different stores to look for one but they all had to have a v-neck, buttons, a zipper, a turtleneck, be made of weird wool and have patches, or some other poo poo. the normal fleece crewneck sweater went almost extinct for a while and i hated it
