Doing my shopping today got me thinking of the things that annoy me (and not just with shopping!)
Here's three to start with:
Constant rearranging of which aisle things are in at the supermarket. It means the shopping takes a lot longer than usual, takes many visits before I know where things are (as need different things each time) and makes me go home without things I had gone for (I even manage to forget things that are on the list as they are in order as I go up and down the aisles).
Customers at the till who wait until everything has been scanned before thinking of packing them up, then packing them into bags before putting them in their trolley. And only after all that do they get their money/card out. (I always have my money at the till ready before they start scanning, then pack as they are going through the register, pay immediately when they have finished and continue packing. Then by the time it hs all gone through I have finished packing and am ready to go. And I usually add up the prices as I'm going along so I know how much it will be).
Too much choice. For example, why can't there be one price for electricity, it all comes through the same wires. I know once when confronted by one of the salesman for an electric company I asked how I would know what electricity was coming through my wires as I was sure sometimes I would be getting someone elses electricity, and how could I be sure theirs was as strong as the other company. I was told it was all the same, so I said if it was all the same, why should I change? Life is too short to keep changing over from one company to another and worrying about whether you have the best 'deal' or not.
Anyway, what are other peoples top annoyances of modern life?
