Annoyances

Okay, so how about a venting post! Sounds good to me. Feel free to skip it if you want.

I have recently discovered 2 of my biggest pet peves. One is people who NEVER answer their phones. It doesnt' matter what time of day or night, if they are busy or not...they just don't answer them. IT DRIVES ME CRAZY! Why have a phone if you aren't going to answer it. I understand to a point...I've been their when someone calls and I don't want to talk to them - or know that I don't have time to talk to them so I let it go to voicemail but to never answer is just rediculous. To go along with this one also is the lack of returning phone calls. If I leave someone a message and ask them to call me back is it really that hard? Devon does this all the time. Not to me because he knows better but if someone in the ward calls and leaves a message on our home phone, asking him a question and wanting him to call them back he NEVER does. It's just rude.

My second pet peve is lack of communication - once again usually with a cell phone. Today we have so many modern coveninces that allow us to "stay connected" so hello, get a clue people! It just drives me crazy when, let's say...you called someone and they are suppost to be comming over at 5:00, well if they know that they are going to be late, or if things have changed and they aren't going to make it then is it really that hard to give a quick phone call instead of having people wait around for you all afternoon! GRRRRRRRRRRR it just drives me crazy when people think that you have nothing better to do then to wait for them. The most annoying part about it is that usually once I get in contact with them it's like....oh yeah well this and this happened and so blah blah blah - acting like it's no big deal that someone has been waiting on them. Like they think that I can tell they aren't comming and will go about my day as normal. Well guess what, I can't. Usually I have already arranged my schedule, or Austins nap schedule or whatever else to accomidate the first time slot. Whatever, I have to go now so I can't vent any longer but I will probably come back to finish this. :)
