I will preface this with the fact that I had a lot of customer service jobs to include fast food and retail cashier jobs. It is when service people say "you're welcome". This is only really about food places. I was always trained to thank the customer. So customer says thank you and then you also say thank you (or like Chik-fil-a workers say My Pleasure). My husband and I are on different sides of this. He was a waiter for 4 months and that was it for any customer service jobs of his. Everyone thanks everyone! It's a thank you circle. This is my hill to die on. However, I do not expect them them to say thank you back. I rather they be silent or say "please pull around" than say "you're welcome" to my thank you.
I'll throw in the your welcome after we've already done the thank you circle, and I was already silent to some of the thank yous.
I'm running out of things to say, and I don't want to ignore your 5 thank yous, but the transaction is over and the customer can move along instead of standing there and adding more thank yous. I do not work in a food place.
Movie and TV annoyance: everyone ever who is folding laundry, including in laundry supply commercials, is just like kinda flapping it in the air while folding. Creating a messy ball of wrinkly nonsense. Be better at acting, people! Align the corners! Smooth something! Lay it fucking down on a flat surface! Literally anything other than waving it around like you're a hot chick starting a drag race in 1967.
This is probably a rational annoyance, but I am annoyed that carpool mom said she would push in and take some of my days to make things easier, and instead all she has done is take the other day so both of the other moms have had a break, and I have not. This is par for the course with carpool mom. She tends to be a user under the guise of being a village.
That being said, I am reaching my breaking point and may make DH pick up next week. I'm counting down the days until afterschool band is over with.
My irrational annoyance is that they now let 5 clubs out at the same time so pick up which used to be "normal" is now mad chaos.

Plus, most of us don't have GIANT, beautiful, separate laundry rooms with lots of sun and fancy washer/dryer sets. Maybe it's my jealously for a space like that on the main or upstairs floor, but show a person folding in the laundry closet, lol.

Or in front of the tv, or on the bed, with a toddler going “mine?” to all your impossible to fold nursing tanks and separating the sock pairs! Or maybe I’m projecting here
I just scream "fuck you for thanking me" at service workers and then if I am in the car I peel out leaving rubber tracks; if I'm in person I slap them across the face.

LOL I just laughed so hard and I needed that. So thank you for that! Or fuck you if you prefer!
Being annoyed at someone for saying you're welcome is definitely an irrational annoyance.

legit lol
This reminds me of the time there was the debate of dogs shitting on the curb or lawn and a poster said she was just going to start walking her dog pointing two middle fingers at everyone. Still laugh at that when I'm picking up my dog's shit. This board.
How is “my pleasure” (which is laying it on a little thick, imo) different from “you’re welcome”?
I think it's supposed to be the alternative to "no problem," a double negative. At least that's how a manager I met 20+ years ago explained it to me. I guess some people think it's more pleasant than you're welcome, but that's not the impression I got.
Ok douche, go ahead and call it mud. My husband DID have halitosis. We addressed it after I talked to you girls on here and guess what? Years later, no problem. Mofongo, you're a cunt. Eat shit. ~anonnamus
I'm so confused but also I find the idea of a thank you circle so ludicrous that I can't stop laughing. And I've spent years and years in client service industries and I absolutely say "you're welcome."

I really bothers me when ppl in tv and movies are supposed to be drinking something, but it's so obvious that there is nothing in the cup just by the way their body moves. Why can't they just put some like water or something in there just so that it is a more natural movement.

I hate this too. I am also very irrationally peeved by the sound of characters pouring coffee. Cannot explain.
