Auto-start stop
That damn double-honk when i get out of my running truck with my key in my pocket. Either give me a proper key and switch or stop annoying me when I use the convenience feature.
The double honk for sure. Grrrr.

Cashiers that put money in your hand then make sure to lay receipt on top. Put the receipt in the bag or whatever.

Idiots on this forum who block you, and then quote you.

Yes, I'm looking at you @Don B.

Which is it?

Are you afraid of my opinion? Or do you want a discussion? You can't have it both ways, dude.
I don't know what is going on here. I have not blocked anyone. I am rarely even on the forum. I certainly have not quoted you. I don't even know anything about your opinion on anything.
I'm confused by this.

I have another one to add to my growing list...Bad Breath! ? I just had my haircut and the lady who does it had the worst breath, like she just ate a couple cloves of garlic. When you're working this close with others please use some breath fresheners or some gum.
Got ya beat. When we lived in Omaha had a dentist that always seemed to have garlic meal every time we seen him. Now that's in your face. :surprised:

Ditto, then you have to put it down to pick up up the change you have groceries in your hand..

I only use the self checkout. I hate when they do this plus I find most have NO clue how to bag groceries.

With inflation something needed to be deleted. I guess soap is a optional now. :shock: ?

There is no self checkout here.
Wow you learn something new every day. I assumed they were everywhere especially since they're trying to do away with workers and automate everything now a days.

Labor here is so cheap. Better to employ people. Typical daily wage here is about $8. I just went to my weekly 2 hour massage which cost $14. I tip $6.

I can see why then and I'd do the same. Here (I'm sure you've read) they all demanded $15/hr for minimum wage so the big companies now have started to automate whatever they can. Personally I like it better because most can't bag and God forbid they have to make change because you gave them more to round it off so you don't get pennies back. They always say "Sir, you gave me to much". I tell them the cash register will tell you what to do. :facepalm:

I do read a lot of retirement articles and they always say the Philippines are a great place to retire. You have a very low cost of living (for us expats) and great healthcare.

Yes pretty sad. I watch cashiers as they look up to the register as they count out change back and forth. Really blows their mind when say it's $10.21 and you hand them $20.21. ??
