Today's pet peeve
Monday, 23 December 2002 10:49People who don't walk towards the back of the bus.
Contrary to what those people must believe, the most efficient way to fill a bus is not to stand in the doorway after getting in.
The back of the bus is usually never filled very well. And even if the bus driver asks passengers to move on down, hardly anyone ever moves.
And no, "I'm getting off in two stops" is not a very good excuse if it means that seven people cannot get on because you're standing in the way.
On an unrelated note, I got a new prescription for my nose spray -- just in time, since it was spraying half air for the past couple of days and there's not much left. Also got a new prescription for my loratidin while I was at it.
I felt kind of bad giving the chemist my card since she was obviously reluctant to accept it for such a small amount, but I didn't have enough cash on my except for my lunch money (which it turns out I didn't need, but I didn't know that until I got to work and found out nobody wanted to order take-away as we had kind-of planned on doing). Still, I now have my drugs.
Which reminds me... I really should get that letter off to my health insurance about the bed covers.
