What is it with people that take ages at cash machines working out if they need to check their balance then discuss with their partner how much they need to take out then have another discussion about maybe needing more then having the brass neck to then put another card in to do exactly rhetoric same etc etc. Surely you already know if you need to check your balance and how much you're likely to need before you use the machine. Decide what you need before you stick your card in and instead of using multiple cards go to the back of the queue so other people can get in and out

But if two people are in line together, say a couple, then they were both in line already. Why should one have to go to the back? It works out the same as if they had gotten in line separately and just stood one in back of the other...

Nearly as annoying as people stood in a queue for some time, get to the till, flop the single item on the counter, THEN furtle in their handbag for their damn purse. Get ya money ready ffs  |

Completely agree, have similar views on other patients at the doctors and other parents at parents evening. I have no idea why it takes someone so long to do something so simple and basic |

I use the train most days and must say I encounter thousands of them weekly. I just wait for my friend to throw the insult at them and then laught out my frustrations. No disrespect but the Chinese students (mainly girls) are the worst I've seen. |

I get annoyed with all the miserable buggers out there who get mardy when I'm using the cash machine to check my bank balance and then get money out of my accounts 
Hey lighten up
Smile
Be happy
Chill
Ps.
I always take longer if someone appears to be unable to wait ... if they want to use the cash machine instantly then go when no one else is there ... easey peasey |

People who go through airport metal detectors repeatedly each time remembering another bit of metal on there person.
People who get to airport check in desks and seem surprised that they have to present their passport and tickets, and then spend ages looking for them.
People who continually open and close the overhead lockers on a plane to seem if all the bags that where in there 10 seconds ago have miraculously disappeared so they can put theirs in
I'm flying a lot so these are things that are getting on my tits

I wish people were more patient - especially with the elderly! Arthritic fingers, poor memory etc so things take you longer.
If I see an elderly person with a walker trying to cross the road - I'll stop to let them cross. Then get beeped at by the person behind ! Wish we were more like other cultures and treated our elderly population better.

"I hate people who are walking down the street and then stop dead to answer their phone like there's some kind of line attached to it. "
That's about all that frustrates me.
Some people are just in a different slip-stream to others, their time perception perhaps more rewarding than my own. I like to enjoy and appreciate all of life, not just when it's at top speed. |

You forgot the water drinkers the ones who on arrivel at airport thought it would be a good idea to buy ten gallons of water and try drinking it in the security line rather than give it up  |

I hate the old cunts that shuffle up to the machine, spend half an hour going thru their pockets for the card and another half an hour looking for scrap of paper with pin number which they then type in wrongly before telling the queue that the machine ain't working. Especially when they wearing my shoes  |

Everyone knows that proper ATM etiquette is to loudly drum your fingers and sigh so that the queue knows that you have done your bit, now it's down to the machine  |

"Supermarkets in petrol stations..
When you need to pay for your fuel and go.
I always get stuck behind someone who has just done a weekly shop...
"
The woman in the blue beetle in asda last night who was already paying when I got there. She was back in her car before I started and I had put in £41 paid for it and started my engine before she pulled away from the pumps.
(Before you ask, I was only there because Waitrose doesn't have a filling station) |

Personally I've only found this to happen in London but people who use the ATM, card out, get their cash from the machine and look their done... so I get ready to move forward but then they get out another card to get money out of another account!
Double the time spent!

"I never queue for a cash point, if there's someone using it I'll just go to the next one. I hate unnecessary waiting time."
