The ClubHouse: Archives: I gotta take a peeve.........
Sia | Friday, April 05, 2002 - 09:47 pm     Okay, JuJu. Thanks a whole big bunch! I have spent about 20 minutes reading urban legends at snopes, and now I'm terrified!! I'm sitting in the dark and my room feels cold and I have my feet up off the floor because I'm totally spooked. Now I can't go to the mall any more!!! LOL |
Juju2bigdog | Saturday, April 06, 2002 - 08:57 am     You are welcome, Sia. Hahahahahahaha, I hope you are not having to go to the restroom while you are sitting in your room. South American Bush Spiders Under Toilet Seats

Sia | Saturday, April 06, 2002 - 09:08 am     Man, JuJu, no more peeing in the dark for me! Now I will have to lift the toilet seat and look before I sit down--even at home. Yes, I read that the story is a hoax, but you have just planted an evil, scary seed in my mind that will torment me all the days of my life! You're just cruel, ya know that? "Butt-spider!" I love that! I do have those awful centipedes occasionally in my bathroom, and I just FREAK OUT--as do my kids--when I see one of those. Usually, I emerge, sweaty, crying, trembling, and with a gooey shoe in one hand from one of those terrifying bathroom encounters--but victorious!! |
Xxlt | Monday, April 08, 2002 - 09:41 am     from doors to toilet seats! w/bill o'reilly tossed in! another peeve???? california drivers suck big time!!!!!! you can tell the morons, they are doing the king fu hand movements with their heads leaned over.. can't miss that cell phone call!!!!!! |
Misslibra | Monday, April 08, 2002 - 08:30 pm     My peeve for today is downloading a program that totally screws up another program on your computer. I'm really peeved right now!  |

Gail | Tuesday, April 09, 2002 - 01:27 pm     MissLibra, you always have that problem. Maybe it is your computer? My peeve is computer experts who call users and customers idiots. In class today, some guy asks the instructor if he is going to tell us how to handle idiot users who forget their passwords. Grrrrrr!! I wanted to smack this guy in the back of the head with a dead trout. I never understand this mentality. It is all about training. jmho |
Car54 | Tuesday, April 09, 2002 - 01:37 pm     Gail, you are soooooo right! I was installing some software on some new PC's about a week ago and was having a minor problem. I called tech support because I had only used the software on Windows 98 machines and the new ones had Windows 2000. The person I spoke with talked to me like I was an idiot, would not even listen to my question, then said... "Well it must be something you did to the machine". I hung up and called back and got someone else. Sure enough, this week we get the Windows 2000 update. I installed the update and it works fine now! Argggh! |
Gail | Tuesday, April 09, 2002 - 01:40 pm     i have a really great relationship with my customers. i love what i do but more importantly, i am there to help them. without their questions and problems, they wouldn't need me. whenever they ask for help, i take care of their problem and a lot of times they apologize for inconveniencing me - i just smile and say "no problem, you keep me employed" - that's the truth. |
Car54 | Tuesday, April 09, 2002 - 01:44 pm     That is what great support people do! Good for you Gail, I bet you are really good at it! It shows in the way you help people out here! |
Marysafan | Wednesday, April 10, 2002 - 01:17 pm     Okay..I kow this is REALLY small stuff...but..... I hate it when I am watching a hockey game on my Direct TV Satillite system...and they do promos for Canadian Televison programs....that I can't get. They are always showing me promos for these really great shows...that I want to see and I can't! and it bugs me! This week there was one for a story on the Queen Mum and her hubby. It looked really good...and so much my cup of tea...but ...not going to get to see it in IOWA USA. I just wish with all the channels we get...I could get something I really would enjoy ...like CBC television. Okay...I am calming down now. |
Whoami | Wednesday, April 10, 2002 - 01:58 pm     I'm with you there Marysafan! I have cable, and one cable channel is the Hallmark station in the daytime, then switches to Bravo in the evening. During the day shows, they are always advertising some very good looking movies on Hallmark, that will be showing in the evening, when the local channel is switched to Bravo! Grrrr!!! |
