Pet peeves? <br /> <br />1) Visiting my favorite hobby shop, filled with male patrons usually. The occasional female drops in with another female friend and complains about all the guys there...as though we're all molesters, waiting to attack the child or her. <b><i>This isn't a raunchy adult bookstore, ladies!</i> </b> We're there for the hobby, not you! (No offense intended towards women who do patronize hobby shops and get as much a kick out of being there as I do! [:)]) <br /> <br />2) Repeated phone calls about something placed on back-order and being told "It's coming." I know it's coming, but will it be <i>this</i> millennium or the <i>next</i>?!?[:(] <br /> <br />3) Nit-picking twits at the LHS whom seem to always have a comment or two while waiting behind you in the check-out line in respect to what you're holding. I've been asked rather sarcastically several times, "What are you buying <b><i>that </b></i>for?" Obviously I want it, you ***! What other reason would I have it?[:(!] <br /> <br />If I seem a bit cranky this morning, I apologize to the forum. Haven't had my obligatory two cups of coffee yet and I'm feeling down right onery![(-D]
