Hate List

I figure that everyone has got a list of things they really despise, so I decided to publish mine. Maybe I am alone on some of these but I bet there are a ton of people who agree with my feelings here.

  1. Bad Service – I cannot tolerate bad service, after being in the service industry for more than ten years, you come to know what the word “service” means. I am expected to give all of my customers good service and I expect the same when I am the one footing the bill. The worst is bad management.
  2. Slow Internet – one of the worst things to experience as a developer and business person is slow internet, and why a Cable based provider’s service is worse than a wireless provider’s I will never understand.
  3. Being Hot – I hate the heat, especially when i need to get work done. I like cold days when it doesn’t rain, they are the most productive and you can always put on an extra item of clothing if your really cold. Hot days are nice when you’re off and you’re at the beach.
  4. Talking while eating – do you want to eat or do you want to talk, they can’t be done at the same time unless you have two heads. I don’t want to see you chewing and even less hear the sound of someone trying to talk with a mouthful of food. What happened to finishing school.
  5. Getting paid late – i do the work, i issue the invoice, you pay the money…
  6. Government Waste – I hate that my hard earned tax money gets wasted. I wish that we could get some people in charge that actually work according to a list of objectives and make a difference. Why must Government Servants always think they are doing us a favour, when they are the ones getting paid stacks of money to do generally do nothing. I want a Government that encourages productivity and entrepreneurship along side good work ethics, not laziness and dependence on state funding, our Government is breading a nation of sick lazy people that are choking the economy, we try so hard to keep free.
  7. Eating with hands while, well doing anything for that matter. – I think if you’re going to eat, eat and get it done. Wash your hands and carry on with your life, don’t dirty your computer or the phone.
  8. Pop corn in movies – the person who decided the ruin every movie at the cinema should be shot, why encourage unmannered people to eat like pigs and spoil a million dollar movie in a mouthful.
  9. “I’m fine and you” – i hate it when people assume that i asked how they are when i say “hi” and then tell me how they’re doing, it shows how much attention they’re paying to what i said, if they start going of about how they are when I haven’t even asked.
