Let’s face it, people can be annoying. It doesn’t matter if they are family, friends, neighbors, co-workers, or strangers. At one time or another, someone will do something that rubs you the wrong way. Whether it’s a pet peeve of yours, or something that is down right annoying to everyone, chances are you will be frustrated by the actions of others. So without further ado, here are the top five (5) most annoying things that people do.
Failure To Cover Their Mouth When They Sneeze
When people fail to cover their mouths when they sneeze it’s not only annoying, it’s also dangerous. In fact, it’s one of the fastest ways to spread germs that make other people sick. Now that we live in the Covid age, it’s even more important to cover your mouth when you sneeze. The next time that you witness someone that doesn’t bother to cover their mouth when they’re sneezing, hand them a tissue and politely ask them to cover their mouth next time.
Not Cleaning Up After Their Dogs When Walking Them
People who walk their dogs and don’t clean up after them are completely annoying. The thing is it happens all of the time. So what can you do in order to stop it from happening again? The next time you see a person taking part in such a rude and crude activity, simply call them out on it in a nice way. Most of the time when people are caught doing something that they shouldn’t be doing, they will stop doing it out of embarrassment.
Driving Too Close Behind You
People who drive too close behind you are completely annoying. It is also incredibly distracting and dangerous. For example, if the vehicle in front of you suddenly slams on their breaks, chances are the person driving too close behind you will slam right into your vehicle. At this point you may be asking yourself what can you actually do about? First and foremost, stay calm, cool, and collected. Do not get into a road rage situation. You also need to pay far more attention to the driver in front of you in case you need to react quickly instead of looking in the rear view mirror. When you are able, simply pull into a different lane and continue with your day or evening.
Close Talking
If you have ever had a conversation with a close talker, than you know exactly how annoying it can be. They invade your space and get up in your face. It’s incredibly uncomfortable for everyone besides the close talker. So what can do you about it? Well there are a few things you can do. First, take a step or two back. If the close talker takes a step or two forward, which they very well may do, simply ask them to give you some space. Say it nicely so you don’t come across as rude.
Making Unsolicited Phone Calls
How many times have you sat down to dinner after a long day and your home phone or smartphone begins to ring? The last thing you want to do is talk to someone at this point, but you answer the phone anyway just in case there is an emergency situation with a family member, friend, or co-worker. Upon answering the phone, you are greeted by a debt collector, scam artist, or an annoying telemarketer. Besides hanging up on them, you should also add their phone number to the National Do Not Call Registry.
