I have two:
-- From DH, he can't stand it when a server says "still working on that?" in reference to his meal. Per him: no, it is not work, I am still enjoying it and when it becomes "work" then I am finished. But in the interest of not starting another tipping/server thread, let me say that this does not affect the amount of a tip we give and we understand that however annoying, it is just a common phrase that people probably don't even realize they are saying.
-- From me, I hate that when I call my mortgage company one of the phone tree options (before the one I need) is to talk to someone about lawn care and/or homeowner's insurance. *Gasp* They are mind-reading geniuses! I wasn't calling to discuss a change to my escrow account, I was randomly calling numbers from bills to find someone to spray disgusting chemicals on my lawn! No, thank you Wells Fargo!
