when you hold a door open for someone and they just walk through as if you wasn't there, they dont even acknowledge the fact that you didn't loose the door behind you

People who use text speak! I know you have to on a text message, but not in everday life and not on here! It wont be long before we lose the power of speech and just grunt!

People who are rude to service industry employees!! For example, when you are at the grocery store checking out, that is a real live person trying to get through their day at work.. Don't ignore them while talking on your phone! Turn the phone off, talk to the cashier and don't treat them like a piece of machinery. Also, when you call your bank or some other company, you are also talking to a PERSON. You may be frustrated with that company, or you may be having a bad day, but that's no reason to be rude to the person on the other end of the phone.
And one other thing that used to bug my when I worked in the service industry is how people seem to treat employees like they are sooo far below the customer. You should watch how you treat pizza guys and grocery clerks, a lot of them are students and will some day be your dentist, surgeon or your child's math teacher. So just be nice!!

I agree its so bloooody annoying, you feel like saying "Thank you" to them in a loud voice. I just can't imagine people not thanking a simple courtesy. My boyfriend has a fetish about opening doors for ladies and I seriously think he would say something as it is so rude. I even expect a man to hold the door open for me!! Feminists eat your hearts out. My pet hate is being pushed by other women when looking through a rail of clothes - they act like animals at sales.

When there's someone on the elevator and you're rushing to catch it before the doors close. The person will MAKE EYE CONTACT with you, yet do nothing to hold the door open for you...they just let them slam shut and ride on up. Drives me insane!

This is not a joke, I know two people who pick their noses and eat the contents, makes me sick even thinking about it.
Grinding your teeth, I know there is medication out there that can cause this, as a side effect, take those people aside, what the hell are you doing that for, I hope your dental bills are high, it`s like finger nails down a blackboard.
Anyways love to everybody x

My most hated act is witnessing adults who refuse to wash their hands after peeing, or ....How can you still be that f*cking lazy after all the threats of bacteria outbreaks and salmonella in the past 15 years?
Solution: WASH YOUR F*CKING HANDS
My second, is the way cashiers place your coin change in the lengthwise folded bills, as if it were a little tray. Are you kidding me? What financial college did they teach this?
Solution:
Hand over the change first, the hand the bills over horizontally for the customer for them to take in their hand.
NOBODY PILES COIN AND BILLS IN THEIR POCKET INTO A BALL!!!
There... I feel better.

Oh, I totally know what you mean with that one!
Personally, I don't like people who are rude in general. The big thing for me though, is people who don't use a blinker or any other sort of turn signal when they're driving. Not only is it polite to let me know you'll be turning.... IT'S ALSO A SAFETY MATTER! That one REALLY gets under my skin!

If you first in the queue at the shop with a basketful of shopping and the person behind only has a couple of things you ask them if they'd like to go first so as not to keep them waiting and then their friend/partner/husband comes from round the corner with a huge basketful and nips in front of you!!!! Makes me mad!!! Grrrr

When people keep interrupting and talking over someone they're supposed to be having a conversation with. This really does annoy me, even when I hear it happening on the telly or radio.

When you walk into a store and are obviously waiting for service, and someone that just walked in tries to order ahead of you and act like they didn't know you were there ahead of them!
