It could be worse…I had a boss who used to get an accumulation of spit in the corners of his mouth as he talked. It was so bad that after about 20 seconds of talking, I’d lose all sense of the words, and be thinking about how much spit he had, and would it drip or fly or just sit there and bubble or…
I had to stop looking at him when he talked, if I wanted to know what he was saying.
I hate it when people ask a question, and then you answer their question, and they say “Huh?” because they weren’t f***ing listening. You’d think since they’d just asked a question they’d know a response was coming and pay attention, but NO!
The worst part is, the callers that do this do it after every single answer. It’s akin to saying “like” or “you know”. I know this because if I pause for a second and don’t answer immediately, they’ll actually repeat my answer back to me and then say “Oh. OK.”
I think this is more a female thing, rather than an economic one. Women hate to admit they wear over a size 6, so many women will intentionally buy shoes too small.

I’m always ranting about people not speaking English.
I can’t tell you the number of times I’ve picked
up the phone and heard “You speak Spanish?” I just
say NO and wait.
HUH? people drive me up the freaking wall. That’s
the noise you make when you are trying to vomit!
