Re: Pet Peeves?

I have a Honeywell thermostat, but I think they are all similar. I have a heat pump, not sure if that makes a difference.

Re: Pet Peeves?

Re: Pet Peeves?

More layoffs, I think we are on the 3rd round of layoff this year. It's starting to get annoying.

Re: Pet Peeves?

I hate the use of "convenience fee" when doing stuff online. Surely if there is less paperwork the cost should be cheaper or is labor so cheap in the USofA? Utah wants to charge me a 75c convenience...

Re: Pet Peeves?

Virgin are the worst airline ever. I hope it's OK to have a car seat in an aisle seat. They pre allocated seats for me and I can't change them. Now I have been on hold for 20 minutes.

Re: Pet Peeves?

We have Glad Press 'n' Seal , has less of a ball issue. It's only sticky on one side. Great for sealing containers, not sure about sandwiches.

Re: Pet Peeves?

I'm sure this has been brought up many times. I hate having to call my cable company every 2 years to get them to charge me a resaonable rate for TV and internet. It's crazy that the bill can go up...

Re: Pet Peeves?

Never signal, by signalling you're giving information to the enemy and watch them close that gap.

Re: Pet Peeves?

Don't you mean what kind of muppet wastes money on a business class seat on a kid where alcohol is supplied for free.

Re: Pet Peeves?

I was thinking more about restaurants. The plane is easy in comparison, they are strapped down.

Re: Pet Peeves?

I would have totally agreed with you on this until I had kids. We do try to keep the volume down, but screens do help with keeping kids under control. Would you rather them running around , screaming?

Re: Pet Peeves?

We need ear plugs due to coyotes and frogs. I never knew frogs were so loud before moving here. Triple pane windows have made a difference. Now we miss the sounds of the frogs.

I have similar views about living within the city limits or living in the unincorporated county. As you say there are good and bad. HOA's can impose stupid rules and can be expensive, but you have a...
