New, updated irritations?
Ooh, I can play this game!
The staffer who runs a free pre-bar-prep psuedo class that I attending because it is a good source of free materials randomly decided to run a practice quiz until forty minutes past the end of class. I'm sure me gathering up my stuff in the middle of a timed practice exam and racing out to get kiddo before the daycare closed didn't annoy anyone at all.
Seriously, if your lecture consists of reading your powerpoint slides aloud, shouldn't it be fairly easy to *not* run over by forty minutes?
The half-billion mommy-board nitwits who insist on turning every decision in life into a thread title that a badly twisted, unfunny attempt to paraphrase the opening line of Hamlet's soliloquy. That one almost led to a brand-new irritation thread.
My new partner who both smokes and wears his overcoat indoors. I foresee three months of chronic breathing problems.
I may just talk to him about that one. Maybe he won't mind just keeping a sweater in the clinic, so he doesn't have to listen to me cough every time we work together, which will be almost daily.
Profs who teach classes populated entirely by third year law students, mostly people graduating this term, but who still insist on writing syllabi in a manner more consistent with the habit to undergrad freshman, including phrases like "law school is a job, show up prepared to work!" :rolleyes: Aw, really? Cuz I thought this was all fun and games.
Also,
sinus infections
subzero temps
cats
car batteries
math requirements
irresponsible spouses
hyperemesis
cranky toddlers
poorly scheduled daycares
dogs
overpriced medications
boots with no lugs
boots with lugs but too-short shafts
boots that are perfect, except for the holes
maternity clothes
dry clean only clothes
code books an inch too thick for the briefcase
food
mediation centers
semantic distinctions
and, cotton socks
Sorry, I've had an irritating day. :|
