I agree. Though I think I'm one of the good ones at the restaurant where I work... my dad has owned it for all of my life, so I literally grew up watching and learning how to waitress! There's one woman named Mary that I'd definetely NOT want as a waitress, though! I feel really sorry for her customers!

I'm proud of me - in my several years of waitressing, I've only dropped ONE thing! And I don't steal food off of plates lol

And I have a pretty good attitude (unlike Mary).



Speaking of computers, Jabberwocky, I get angry whenever my dad downloads a bunch of programs on MY computer that I bought with my own $$$. He's like "You'll like them! Plus, I always use them!"

Then I have to go through deleting stupid useless programs that he downloaded and has NEVER used again. Bleah.

Here is another one: Parents who cannot control their children at an event (sports, or a show). They climb all over the bleachers, or seats in front of you and around you. Makes me want to punch the parent!

It's not just events! I was in H & R Block once and there were these two kids running and screaming up and down the hallway for the ENTIRE time their mom was with the agent. She only told them to settle down once, and then after that she ignored them completely.

You couldn't even talk over them, you had to yell because they were screaming so loud. GRRRR

It doesn't bother me so bad about what the kids are seeing (I was brought up on horror/thriller movies of all kinds and I turned out pretty normal), but that the younger kids usually don't understand what is going on and get bored, thus making them fidget, talk, and otherwise disrupt the movie for others. My motto is if you don't think the kid will understand what's going on, hire a babysitter, see a different movie, or just don't go.

I won't even get into the subject of screaming babies in theaters... Ok, yeah, maybe you REALLY wanted to see a movie and absolutely COULDN'T find a babysitter, so you took the baby, but for the love of pete if the baby gets upset and screams, PLEASE LEAVE THE THEATER!!!

Speaking of which, I hate it when people won't shut up in theaters or throw candy/popcorn at people in front of them. FREAKING GROW UP ALREADY!!!!! It's why I am usually against seeing PG-13 movies in theaters... you get a lot of kids who think it's absolutely hilaaaaaaarrriooooouuussss.

Yeah, that's the reason why I try to sit way in the back of the theater if at all possible.

When I saw Finding Nemo in theaters, during one of the dramatic suspenseful moments there was this kid who "whispered" to his mom, "HE'S NOT REALLY DEAD!!!". I mean sure, I could have figured that out myself, but SHUT UP KID. >:[

Plus there were a lot of really tiny kids crying/screaming at certain parts in the Spongebob movie (DON'T JUDGE ME) which is probably because the parents understandably didn't expect it to be so frightening, but still.

Yeah, on the subject of "SHUT UP KID!", when I was in a horror movie once that I thought was relatively decent for what it was, there was a pre-teen next to me who was trying to impress his friends and kept repeating/whining "OMG this is SOOOOOO stupidddddd... this suuuuuucks sooooo badddddd...."

Of course he was just trying to be cool in front of his friends whether he liked the movie or not, but I seriously wish I had kicked him or something. Good for him I'm nice.

and don't worry, I saw Spongebob in the theaters, too!
