Those people who put thier shopping cart on one side of the isle and put thier bodies on the other side (usually back against the shopping cart) thus taking up the enter isle. Then don't move when people are trying to get by.
People in general who are out in public and oblivious to the surroundings and the others around them.
Over dramatic displays in public for very minor things.
I was behind some guy last week in the bagel place. He ordered a lunch sandwich at breakfast time, it confused the kid behind the counter who asked him to repeat it. Guy blew a gasket going off on the kid about how he should know the menu. Kid just looked at the man and said nothing. Which made the guy even MORE mad and he told the kid " DON'T LOOK AT ME LOOK AT YOUR MENU!", then ripped the bag out of the kids hand. Went to the counter to pay, told the girl his order, she had to look at the menu for the price which set him off again. "WHY DOESN'T ANYONE IN HERE KNOW THE MENU?!!"

Those aren't really silly things though, they're perfectly sensible reasons to be upset.

Great, a venting thread. Here is the list of things that dumbass people who come into my theatre do.
First and foremost, it isn't a big deal, but it angers the shit out of me when someone gives me a 20 dollar bill for one ticket that costs them 2 dollars. I want to hang these people from the gallows. Don't get me started on the same people that buy one ticket and pay me in a 50 or a 100 dollar bill. Most of the time I will tell those people that I don't have enough change, just to try and prove a point.
The people that look at my sign that very plainly says "Cash Only", reads it to themselves, then tries to hand me a card. If you don't see the sign, I can almost understand it, as most places take cards (I don't because I simply can't afford the extra fees attached to taking cards, we operate at a very thin profit margin), but still, come on.
People that come in and look up at the marquee sign with all of the times, and actually takes time to study it. THEN they look at me, with the most dumbfounded look and ask what time a movie plays, when it is literally on the board in black and white.
If you are going to play my arcade games, put money in them. Don't just push buttons, don't yank the stick (you have your bedroom for that, loser), or shoot the guns at your stupid little friends who you think might be impressed by your amount of 64bit gangsta. Go die.
Finally, the people that see me walking into the theatre with my laptop case in one hand and unlocking the door with my other hand. Obviously, if I am unlocking the doors, I just got here. I need to thread the movies, turn on the lights, get popcorn going, etc... Why in the hell would you try to walk in directly behind me when I am trying to lock the door back?

People who wad up the dish rag, and put it in the sink for me to find later. Don't they know what happens to it? Hold it out in front of me, throw it in the wash, and pull out a new one. I have hid all the dish rags since then, and hide the one I'm using once its dry. Dish rag should smell like soap or nothing fuckers! See, silly and irrational. hehheheh.

oh god lurkers in the morning are the worst especially when we are getting ready and insist on trying all our doors just in case one is unlocked and when they don't do that they stay there for 10 minutes and peer through our tinted windows and knock on them when they see us behind the counter like we are going to let them in because there special for some reason.
the dumb ass people that try to make snide remarks about our prices at concession when literally hundreds of people have said the exact same statement to me before.
people who always complain that they have to pay for a cup with water, because they seem to think we take a cup and fucking weigh it and make them pay per how much it ways as opposed to the obvious "we sell the drinks not by whats in them but by the cup"
people who call the theater and ask for a description, running time and and times for every movie we have when there are dozens of other ways to do it.
when im cleaning theaters people who come into the theaters while the lights are on and there are 3 of us running around and sit in a aisle that is especially dirty and act like they can be there and get angry when we have to tell them to wait outside.
people who go to candy dispensers and it clearly states that it needs 50 cents and that there are two slots to put the money it yet they put one in in hopes of tricking the machine and end up breaking it.
there are way more i just can't think of them right now.
theaters suck srsly. if you ever want to get on an theater employees bad side pretty much any of these will do the trick, especially regal theaters

YES! Holy shit, those all are right dead on the money. We have a hotline that has all of the movie info, and they sit through the entire goddamn thing, wait for the little message at the end that gives the box office number for LOST AND FOUND ONLY, and call me to ask about a movie. Seriously, I want to mass murder these people. Can we reopen Auschwitz for them?

Ah the restaurant business, where shall I start?
Customers who, when I run the food, don't ask for everything they need all at once, even after I ask, "is there anything else I can get for you?" Fair enough, it's our job to serve you, and you're paying us to do so, however it's just common courtesy. Don't ask the server for ketchup, then when they come back, ask for a refill, then after dropping THAT off, ask for pepper, and etc. Seriously? I'm sure if you're an adult you've eaten out at enough places in your life and cooked enough of your own food to know what condiments you'd probably like for the meal.
Birthdays. It's great that you've chosen my restaurant of all the others to come and enjoy your occasion. I'll do my best to make sure it's fun and enjoyable. What really grinds my gears is when someone pulls me aside as they're on their way to the washroom to make it look inconspicuous and ask to have a birthday song and cake. First of all, I refuse to let my staff sing Happy Birthday unless it's for an actual embarrassing moment and when it's not busy. Fine, it's all in good fun, and helps improve the image of the restaurant as being a fun place to be. But when you have a song made just fr your restaurant and you have no choice but have to sing to every fucking table that asks... Anyways, after they've pulled me aside and done their business, they sit there waiting and waiting for you to bring the cake and a bunch of people right in the middle of the rush at 6:30pm on a Friday night... Not only do we have to prepare the cake, but we have to beg our co-workers to take 5 precious minutes out of their 8 tables that are about to be neglected and have their tips put on the line for this jackass's birthday, only to get a cheap laugh from the table. Then for the rest of the night you have to put up with your co-workers being pissed off that they had 3 tables complain at lack of service, even though they heard and saw their server singing at a table a few down from theirs.
Steaks. Don't try and argue with a steakhouse manager about how your steak is supposed to be cooked. We know. We handle hundreds every day, and in order to get the job, we have to know. We get paid to know. If it's not done the way you like it, that's fair maybe we really did screw up, but don't sit there and argue with me that the steak is rare, when I can see that the cut you're looking at is obviously Medium, just like you ordered the fucking thing. Since when are you a steak connoisseur? We literally spend months learning proper cuts, how to cook them, COOKING THEM, EATING THEM... seriously, we're SICK of steak by the end. We know what we're talking about, don't argue, just admit you ordered the damn thing wrong.
Wine. Ah yes, the, "I'm a sommelier, I know exactly what wine is supposed to taste like and I know everything there is to know" people. Those people who sit there and tell you you're doing your job wrong, though you've been doing it for years, and know how to do it. I'm well versed in wines, I know what I'm talking about when you ask me what our wines compare to, what is good, what the tannins, aromas and finishes are like. I know these, I've personally tested these and have been TRAINED in how to taste and tell. But when you have the audacity to tell me that the wine is bad, and if I go back and taste it and I know it's fine, I'm going to tell you. That's fine! Wine is an aquired taste, don't tell me I'm wrong, you obviously just don't like the wine, I'll get you something different. But seriously? You're arguing with me about it?
Jackasses Guests. Here's a good one. Lets start with people who don't even acknowledge you when you go up to do a first greet. "Hi Folks, how are you this evening?" *conversation is continuing with you being ignored* "Oh I'm great! Thanks for asking!" We're here to serve you and get you your drinks right away so that you don't sit there for 20 minutes talking to eachother without food and drink, which I'm pretty sure was the original reason you came here.
People who complain that they didn't know their side ceasar salad was going to charge more, even though I watched you order it out of the menu and point at it when ordering it. Granted, all the servers should have the common decency to tell you it's an extra charge. But do you go into a grocery store and buy a loaf of bread, then complain when it doesn't come with the butter? Why do you think it's called an, "Add on?"
Children. Okay okay, you're asking, "Who cares if children are a little extra work?" That's not my problem. My problem is, even as a guest... that no matter how patient and good the parent is, if a kid in the table next to me starts screaming or crying, interrupting my meal and being unable to talk to the person beside me, I'm pretty upset. Leave your kids at home, people... I don't go to a restaurant to pay $80 for two people to have to listen to your kid wail at the top of their lungs.
Tips. In all honestly, I'm a fair tipper. If I go to the restaurant and get okay service, you get an average 10%. If it's crap service, you'll get enough to tip the house. I'll even sit there and do the math on the back of the check... But if you wow me, you're getting a mean tip, I'm talking $30 on a $50 bill. You know what people? We all at restaurants are cursed to tip out to the house... so you're not only tipping your server, you're tipping that guy who greeted you at the door, took you to your seats... the guy you see walking around and cleaning the floors and tables... the people who ran your food... the cooks, the dishwashers, the prep guys... It's all deviated throughout them. When we give you excellent service, and you even fill out a comment card raving about how great it was... yet you leave a tip for $2.52 on a $100 bill... you're lucky we don't write your licence plate down, follow you home, and beat your face in. The last thing we want to do is have to pull money out of our own pockets just to pay for the tip out, because you were cheap. You know what, we don't fuck with the food we're serving you... that's fucking disgusting, we're proud of what we sell, and we make it apparent.

Oh ya... People who refuse to complain about their food, even after being checked on to see if it was all okay (to which they reply, it's good) until all of it has been eaten. Or until you've gotten the bill and you're on your way out. It's like these people actually wait to get to the door to pay, realize they don't have enough cash, and think to themselves, "Oh crap, going to have to try and haggle my way outta this." Common people, if there's something wrong with the food, if you don't like it, TELL US! Chances are well get ya a something else or a new one fast, and won't even make ya pay for it. How am I supposed to take it off your bill if you can't even tell me what's wrong with it? "I didn't like it." That's nice, don't order it then.

When I overcook bacon... every once in a while I totally fuck up and it gets overcooked. It's still good, but... it coulda been better.
But then there's shit like the other day I wrapped a nice tenderloin cut with a piece of raw bacon and just stuck it on the grill, and BOTH were cooked perfect at the same exact time. Was fucking awesome!

Wine snobs who come here and spout off or try to wax intellectual about wine, obviously trying to show you they seem to know more about wine than you do, even though we make and export the exact same 2 euro wine they buy for 50 dollars a bottle. Wine tasting is the biggest sham ever invented; the ridiculousness of the lengths they go to describe wine is astounding. Also, the sheep-like, "I've seen Sideways and Merlot is shit" attitude is hilarious. Technique only, but wine was made to be drunk...not tasted, spit out, and then rambled on about. Drink it and STFU.
Italians who write in English and add the definite article where they shouldn't.
Americans who travel to foreign countries without learning the language, who then try to communicate in English and when the other person doesn't understand, the American then repeats the same thing he just said, just much louder. He's not deaf, he just doesn't speak English.
Popped collars.
People who use the word "Eurotrash" thinking it has the same connotation as "white trash". White trash people exist in the US, not here. Eurotrash are young european clubbers who wear ridiculously gawdy clothes, pop their collars, wear those disgustingly hideous Dolce & Gabbana bug eye sunglasses, and have ridiculous haircuts. Basically the JAGABOMBS guy. It has nothing to do with living in a trailer park, wearing wife beaters and having a car on blocks in your front yard. Those people are called gypsies.
Young, outspoken communists who come from wealthy families.
Italians who ask me for help tutoring them in English and then don't study to get better. I hate that shit. Italians want to KNOW English but don't want to LEARN it.
College Republicans
Americans who say, "If it weren't for us, you'd be speaking German right about now", as if they themselves stormed the beaches of Normandy.

Italian comedians...they're just not funny.
All the 80's glam fanatics around here as well as all the tribute bands in Italy.
Evil and grim black metallers here who live with their parents
Italians who travel to foreign countries and go to Italian restaurants to eat instead of local cuisine, only to complain that it's not as good as it is in Italy
People who get stupid and annoying when they're drunk
People who make scenes in public to try and humiliate other people
American coffee shops and the people who go there, especially the ones who bring their laptops. Yeah, I'm sure you're gonna get a lot of work done chugging that sugar-covered diarrhea in a cup
Mac users. I love Macs, don't get me wrong...but they have their place. Mac users seem to be oblivious to this fact. As long as you're just surfing the web, creating music, or creating movies and that's the extent of your needs, then by all means get a Mac. PCs are more versatile, albeit a bit less stable and more vulnerable, but they're also easier to fix. The main reason people still buy more PCs than Macs is because of the outspoken Mac geek that you want to punch in the dick every time he opens his mouth.
But above all else, the thing that gets me the most irrationally upset is a dubbed movie. I get seriously pissed off when I'm forced to watch a movie dubbed in Italian. The only thing worse than that is when I hear Italians say, "But Italians have the best dubbing!" Yeah, that's because YOU PEOPLE NEVER FUCKING LEARNED ENGLISH TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE!!! How the hell can you dub DeNiro, Pesci, Connery, etc.? Fuck dubbing. It should be outlawed. If you're too stupid and slow to read subtitles and watch the movie, then you shouldn't be watching a movie, you should be back in grade school you fucking retard.

when i'm talking to someone (friend, customer, co-worker) and they make some joke or sarcastic comment i don't understand, realize that i took them seriously and then profusely say "jeez, it was just a joke" more insistantly than they should. makes me feel stupid. or on the flipside, when i say something sarcastic and the person i'm talking to doesn't realize it was sarcasm and freaks out at me. makes me look stupid.
