Stupid things stupid people do that are stupid

People who store their food in work fridges that have company food in it instead of taking it upstairs to the employees fridge, blatant disrespect for the rules and basic misunderstanding of food science. They are jerks.

Using the self checkout lane when you don’t have your shit together.

Holy shit, yes. It should take no more than two minutes to scan, bag, and pay at self checkout. If you cant handle that go to a regular line.

People who get pissy at people in the self check out line.

We are all in this dystopian future together. Get mad at the people who cut all the check out jobs, not some other poor soul who has to “please return item to the bagging area”

Also. I take a trolly through self check out for my weekly sunday big shop.

Come at me.

People who have WAY more than 15-20 items in the express line. Selfish and inconsiderate actions are basically the only thing that really upsets me.

I don’t mind if someone has a hard time in the self checkout. Not really their fault they’re dumb and likely old. If anything I’d help those people out. Agree that we’re all in this shit together, unless you’re a self entitled inconsiderate asshole. Which probably makes up 70% of the population :(

I used to get upset when people would sit there and chat with the cashier. Like wtf you’re stealing a minute of my life.

Then I realized a minute isn’t going to make a difference in my life, and these people are just trying to enjoy each other for a brief moment. Maybe they don’t have many people to talk to and this is something they look forward too.

Another thing that does annoy me is people who try to ride the merging lane all the way to the front instead of merging with everyone else. I used to go back out to the right to block them from heading to the front, but I realized this kinda fucks this people behind me. They’re getting fucked anyways once that person gets to the front and has to merge in though right? What do you guys think, is blocking these assholes the move?

Everyone should wait til the end of the merge lane to merge, then zipper. It is the most efficient way to ease traffic.

Gotta quibble with this. multiple studies have shown that the zipper method is FAR superior to the “everyone merge ASAP and get in line” method. It reduces traffic and makes everything faster for everyone. In fact, in Michigan, they now have orange signs that say “Do not merge until you reach the cones” during construction because the backups became so horrid from everyone getting in line 2-3 miles back from the merge point.

They must not do these studies around Boston because nobody merges ahead of time and then you have your typical scumbags driving another half-mile past the merge point half out of the lane cutting off as many people as possible before they finally merge.

As noted in the link above, the zipper only works if everyone is on the same page, if scumbag gets to the merge point and nobody lets him in (this is a neccesary component of the zipper) then he continues on past the merge point still looking for an in that nobody is granting because now hes the asshole a half mile up into the zone, then yeah, the teeth of the zipper get all fucked up. They call that the “Frank N Beans” effect.

It just takes one dick to screw up the zipper.

I’m on board with this for natural merge points and such, but on my commute I often see jerkfaces who see a huge backup that extends into the exit only lane offramp and elect to “merge” into it by waiting in the lane to the left of that for a hole to open up while they back up the flow of traffic on the freeway. Fuck that, get in the line, asshole.
