Yes, that is very annoying. Even if you say no, they still ask you would you like something else. If I get hassled by shop assistants, I just leave the shop.

Getting pounced on by eager sales assistants especially in furniture shops. Dont they realise that 'shoppers' are more likely to buy something if left to browse in peace!!!

One more thing that slighlt irritates me but is more a burden:-

Having to take it easy for a day or more after getting over thw worst of a cold, stomach bug, or after dental surgery. I know they are doctors orders but especially after a cold, you want to be active again.

As a shop assistant:

Why don't customers say please/thank you?

Why do customers think it is OK to talk on their mobile when you are serving them and there is a queue to the door?

Why do custoimers think it is OK to slap money on the counter with no comment but expect the change to be put in their hand with a thank you and smile?!!

Customer service works both ways.

I always say please and thankyou, expletives are always saved for under the breath,

Manners will always win in the end. Men in suits please take note

People who are know it alls and won't hear anyone else's opinion even when they are proved wrong.
Bigots
Rude people
People who say "not a problem" and "no worries" .
People who put labels on other people or descibe someone by their physical attributes such as their weight instead of how nice they are etc.

My OCD irritates me.

Benjamin............sadly, that sort of thing happens a lot.

The best thing to do is try not to react to it, but put it down to experience and move on.

It is immature and silly.............but saying something about another person doesn't make it true.

Just be yourself and you will be fine:))
