Stupid Pet Peeves

People who think Katy Perry is awesome. Firework may be one of the worst songs to ever be #1. She sounds horrible on it.

I don't say anything about her music. Katy Perry kicks *** and would make a good socialite without her angelic voice. If I were to criticize her I'd start with why she didn't ask for a little perkiness when selling her soul to the illuminati and the devil.
 
The customer is always right, crybaby. Seriously though, I do this trying to learn about the trade and sense how annoying I must be but still can't stop doing it. It's my house and I want to learn what you're doing damnit.

I have no problem with what you're saying here. But there is a way to do that without being right on my heels every second. I always give an explanation of everything I do to the homeowner when they show any interest at all. But don't walk right next to me like you're my seeing eye dog.

Put a percentage on it. How many people usually follow you guys around and just stand there? I know my mom did growing up. Plumbers, electricians, roofers, whatever. If you were at my house, she was watching you like a hawk. Although, the majority of the trade guys look like they just leaped out of the back of a prison van and showed up at your doorstep so I can't blame the followers.
 
Not in that profession, but I would think a bigger deal would be parents that don't keep their kids away.
"what are you doing?"
"what's that tool used for?"
"can I help?"
"what's your name .. My name is .."

I had to get my AC repaired a few years ago. The guy was in my back yard working and the neighbors deck looked right down on him. I thought it was just their annoying dog barking at him but when I looked I saw somewhat to my horror that the neighbors 3yo son was standing next to the dog and both of them, the kid and the dog, were starring straight at the repair guy and barking. Not for a few seconds, several minutes. Eventually they got worn out and retreated trough the dog door, both of them.
