Airing of Grievances

I've got a problem with you people.

People that cruise a busy parking lot, looking for the non existent empty space up in front. What's yours?

People who repeatedly push an elevator call button, like its arrival is affected by how many times you push it.

Stores that stock all of the cigarettes at the express checkout so the cashier from aisle 9 has to leave their register to get a pack of Marlboro Reds for the hacker in line. They should sell them at customer service, not at the checkouts.

People that absolutely have to back into a parking spot.

Last year we went to the rodeo in San Antonio. When I was parking, I noticed all the cars were back in. So I followed suit. Then once the rodeo let out, I realized why they did this. Everyone gets out at the same time. By backing in, all you had to do to leave was pull forward. If you had to back out, there would have been no place to turn since all the cars were bumper to bumper. I was so thankful I parked the way I did that night. Getting out of that parking lot was painfully slow but backing out would have been exponentially worse.

Agree with that, I've done the same at sporting events. My gripe is the ones that have to back into a space in front of a WaWa, 7/11 or small strip mall.
