My child seems to have sensed I was about to pocket munch, and is now subconsciously hovering around me so I can't eat said munchies. And no, I cannot share! 🤣

Mascara that flakes. I’ve found 2 mascaras (one waterproof and one not) that are so far, fingers crossed, flake free. Every other mascara I’ve bought be it high end or low end flakes. Argh, it annoys me so much!

A few tiny drops of baby oil (drop it into the mascara tube) will help prevent that.

FFS ...

I bought a pair of shoes online; upon opening the package when it arrived, there were two left feet (different sizes). I returned them, only for two right feet to be sent back (different sizes). Bugger this, I thought, so I went into the store - who wouldn't sort the issue out because online and store stock are treated separately (nor did they have those shoes in stock). So, back home I went to call customer services ... who said they don't have those shoes anymore, so the best they could offer is a store credit once I'd returned what I had got.

Shoes returned, I bought some jeans online, for a 'today only' special price. Within minutes, I received an email advising my order had been cancelled as there was an error with pricing.

I'm about to give up on this store!

People who ask for discounts at charity shops and people who start offloading their items before I've finished at the self-check out.

And when you're in the queue for a self checkout and the person at the front of the queue is stood there like a gormless idiot waiting for a member of staff to direct them to a machine despite there being loads free all around them and holding up everyone else in the queue

Working in retail teaches you one important thing - the general public are bleeping morons.

When burger buns or bagels are not pre-sliced in the middle and I have to slice them myself. Why?

Someone on my "friends"list makes everything about her.
Mutual friend just posted a message about getting a new job. Instead of saying well done, they launched into a moan about how tit their job is. Theres a time and place and that was not the time.

Yes, this is so annoying!

Adding to the food annoyances: bags of crisps that are half empty. I know the bag is always way bigger than the contents inside but it has always annoyed me 😒.

I rarely eat them but I was in the Co-op recently and thought they'd really jumped up in price.
