I hate extremely bad customer service, or the total lack of it. :'(

I tried to book a 8 nite holiday last Wednesday, at a resort we have stayed at 4 times, I am still waiting for the manager to ring me back.
I got quoted a price from him direct, one from the members reservation line, one from the members web site, all different.
The Manger that was there has left and moved away, and this guy does not care at all.

Also, people trying to sell me things in MY shop, stuff I don't want or need. Go rent your own shop, or market stall.

Nazar, yes my lap top keeps crashing, and my daughter wants to play on it now.
I only had it fixed  yesterday too.

I hate a very strong wind from any direction. When I'm away in the van if the wind gets really strong (gale force) I have to resort to Port in large doses. :P

I don't like the really high winds but have learned to live with our "normal" winds, today it is blustery with some gusts but not too badd:  
"Detailed Local Forecast
          Today: A mix of clouds and sun. High 58F. Low: 28°F. Winds WSW at 10 to 20 mph. Winds could occasionally gust over 40 mph."

It's when the winds are sustained at 45 - 50 mph with gusts to 70+ that we have problems with big things blowing around.  A few months ago one of the big dishes from a microwave relay tower just north of here blew off and rolled for more than half a mile before it dropped into an arroyo.  It was 18 feet in diameter!  It crossed several roads but was at a time where there was little traffic and it didn't get near any homes.  

People come up here and see the local Joshua trees, which all lean toward the east.  That is because we have the regular wind pattern that comes out of the west or west north west and at this time of the year are cold because they come down from the mountains where, because of the altitude, it is colder.  

We have been lucky this fall as we have not had any really big, sustained wind events - the Santa Ana "devil winds" that so often bring wildfires.  
People's nerves are shredded by those winds and I have to admit that I get very irritable and snappy after a couple of days of the real windy weather.  It's like scratching fingernails on a blackboard.   And I am usually a fairly placid person.

I hate electricity salesmen who knock on your door at dinner time and won't take no for an answer!

JD I really can’t understand how some people expect to have a quite dinner at a local restaurant on a Saturday night.

I hate strong winds to andiesenji, it can be really scary at times. Mother nature can be quiet vicious sometimes (Wind, snow, floods, sun, thunder and lightening, earth quakes etc) and there is nothing we can do to control when and where it happens.

I hate it when I go to the shops for something quick and the person in the checkout line in front of me is having a conversation with their mate who is the checkout chick or shop assistant and they don't stop when they have finished their transaction.
