So I went to a happy hour last night. Which then turned into happy hours. Having a good time, shooting pool, downing a few drinks, enjoying the company of friends, etc. Everything you need to result in a good time! Of course as you have a drink or two… or several more, the urge to relieve yourself hit you. So after losing what was probably my 4th straight game of pool, to a girl, I decide it’s time to pay a visit to the men’s room. As soon as I walk in there, I look over and think to myself, “dammit”.
I’m not a fan of bathroom attendants. When I go to the restroom, I just want to take care of what I need to take care of and that’s that. I don’t need anyone there to turn on the faucet for me and squirt soap in my hands. And of course they do this and expect a tip for it. Jeez. Half the time I’m not even carrying cash. When it comes to tipping a waitress or bar tender, I put it on my credit card. I don’t want to have to ever plan for bathroom attendant tips. I think I will boycott any bars that have bathroom attendants from here on out. Am I the only one that is annoyed by these guys? Do they have a female version in the ladies room??
This got me thinking about other annoying professions. So I ranked my top 5:
- Bathroom Attendants (still pretty freshly annoyed from last night)
- TSA Employees (seems like they all have a chip on their shoulder)
- Car Salesman (just back off and let me look at the car, will ya?)
- Telemarketers (no need to explain)
- Tech support that can’t speak English (these guys make me want to punch something)
I intentionally left out politicians since that is an obvious one and by default nobody likes those imbeciles. Did I miss any?
