I live in the wonderful and volatile city of Joburg in South Africa. Sometimes I get the urge to write stuff down. This is where it lives.

People PISS ME OFF!

I really hate people who won't make the tiniest effort to be nice and help out when it costs them nothing!

The biggest example of this is those who won't take flyers from people at intersections. This is someone's job. Just take the fucking flyer! It doesn't cost anything and you can do what the hell you want with it... throw it away, recycle it, stick it up your ass - whatever!

Then last weekend I was at our local shop buying chocolate (OK - I really like the people who invented chocolate - you did good!) and the guy behind the counter was so nice and friendly and smiled at the woman in front of me and said "hello" and what did she do? She didn't smile or even look up - just shoved her stuff in front of him.

Cow!

It took a lot of control for me not to just punch her out right there.

Ok - I feel better now.

Easy on the caffeine, Dori...

but seriously... I feel the same. I respect other people's jobs because this is what I want for myself. Some jobs can be seriously undignified and humiliating and it costs NOTHING to just be polite and nice. The person doing the menial job is no better than anyone else. Some people just don't believe their shit stinks the same as everyone else's. And saying please and thank you. That pisses me off - it's not hard to do!
