Pet Peeve: Someone asking what I do for a living in the first 30 seconds of knowing me

[PoeticSilence]

When having a conversation with someone and telling them you had an accident and they talk about their even WORSE accident, or if you talk about your kid winning something, they talk about their kid winning something BIGGER or BETTER.

I have seen people (specifically co-workers) who don't use soap (water alone contributes to bacteria growth) when "washing" their hands. What good is it for me to wash my hands and then grab the handle, or twist open the knob, after someone who didn't wash properly? At least give me some paper towel to open the door with, or put an automatic door button I can press with my elbow.

I'm not a germaphobe but non-consensual germs must die.

The guy that spent half an hour sweating all over the treadmill next to me that did not wipe it down when he got off of it. Just made his way out the door like his sweat and germs were an offering or something. Bleh.

One uppers! As a reformed one upper, I apologize. To be fair, it was more of a 'finding something to relate to' aka "OMG, me too!!!!" thing for me but I have since changed my ways for the better.
