Pet peeves

I don't care how people park, as long as they fucking look before they pull out of the spot to leave.

Maryland assholes are the absolute worst about just assuming there's no one behind them when they back up.

 

Yep, some young asshole backed out so fast, he wound up totaling my gf's car back in November. In a parking lot. Totaled. smh.

Been dealing with a lot of hassles ever since.

 

People who don't recycle recyclables.

 

We don't have a community recycling program in my town, and I'm not buying a baling machine so I can get $20 for a ton of cardboard. Sorry.

 

I invite bums over to rummage through my rubbish for cans, etc., to recycle. Keeps 'em in the workforce. Score.

 

The companies that work haul trash in my area all have recycling programs. Some of them charge extra. At least two of them were caught dumping the recyclables they charge extra to take care of in the dump with everything else.

 

The operations director of my previous paper, a major metro, admitted that all the paper that was
collected from the Recycle trash cans at all of our desks ended up being dumped into all the other garbage.

 

Some tone deaf lady is singing in the airport. Fuck!

 

And she's attempting some country music shit about sunshine. Gawd awful. Everyone knows sunshine is full of it.

 

Was it on her shoulder, and did it make her happy?

 

Our office is tucked in the corner of a strip mall with a couple restaurants, nail shop, liquor store and the like. We have five parking spots for employees marked "Podunk Press," but customers of other businesses often park there when there are dozens of other empty spots closer to those businesses.

It's not a big deal -- although it annoys the sales staff -- but I don't get people who will park in reserved spots when they are not visiting that location.

 

In the New World Order, every newspaper should be tucked in the
corner of a strip mall with a liquor store and a couple of restaurants.
