minor things that make you fume

When someone says they're just 'trolling' All they're really doing is being a stupid @#*##.

Also the word trolling really grinds my gears.

Those self service checkouts.

Some bonehead accountant's decision to save paying Doris the minimum wage. I refuse to use them.

Stand with me brothers.
Even worse: my bank has a couple of whoppers stood in the foyer who intercept you and do everything they can to make you use the machines rather than go to the counter. They even ask you what you've come into the branch to do, oblivious to the fact that most people don't want to discuss their banking activities in a public area surrounded by strangers.

This is what happens when you put bean counters in operational management roles. They make decisions based on cost as opposed to customer satisfaction.

The harrying of people away from the counters is both intrusive and rude. In the same way that having to scan and bag your own shopping on machines that are pish, is a downright liberty and detracts from the shopping experience.

They also don't factor in that Doris on the checkout might actually interact in a postive manner with the customers and might even upsell something like saving stamps etc. As might the advisor behind the bank counter.
 
the problem often is though that Doris is incredibly slow and insists on opening each carrier bag for you before she starts scanning. When on the way to work in the morning this is frustrating and doing it myself usually results in being in and outa Sainsburys within about 90 seconds...rather than Doris' 3 or 4 minutes
 

Until Doris shuts the hell up and just serves me rather than trying to force me into having a conversation i'm self serving all the way.

My "shopping experience" doesn't involve inane chat when i just want to buy some coco pops.

The only time I ever used one, I charged myself 10 quid more than I should have done.

I refuse to use one again until they replace me with someone more trustworthy.
