So, I'm having one of those days were I just can deal with people. It all started at the university this morning - I was taking the elevator, when a guy had to leave the elevator before me, tripped over his own feet and spilled his freshly made coffee on me. Okay, accidents do happen, but what really gets to me is, that he's like "Ugh, my coffee!" and not like "Oops, I'm sorry I poured my boiling hot coffee on you.". Then I head to my classroom, one foot swimming around in coffee in its shoe, and all the chairs are occupied, BUT! they're not only occupied by people, but around 15 chairs are occupied by handbags! I asked one of the girls if I could please have the chair she was using for her handbag, but she said no, because she didn't want her bag on the floor... So I ended up sitting in the window sill.
After a lecture with people walking in and out the classroom, slamming the door every time, I had worked up a pretty good anger, so I decided to go to the gym and get it all out, and here comes the other big BUT!... There were people using the machines for... (drumroll, please)... reading newspapers. It was impossible to use 5 of the machines, because men were sitting on them reading their newspapers.
Now, I could simply have asked them to move/or use other equipment, but what really gets me here is, that people think it's okay to act like this, and that the manager of the gym let them do this.

As I'm writing this, which is pretty much just one big complaint, I'm waiting for a person to come and pick up his/her laundry, and he/she is more than 20 min. into my laundry time, and I can't get the doors opened without the correct keycard...

What is it with people?

Sorry for the angry post!

Wow. Coffee-guy sounds ridiculous. Like...if somebody wrote a character who did that, I'd have said "That's not very believable. Nobody is that rude!"

People misusing gym equipment is always frustrating. For me it's the people who use the squat rack to do bicep curls. >.<
That was really funny, PenHold. 15 handbags taking up seats? Ahahaha! I cant believe it!

It was just one rude person after another, huh? It seems like they're making communities of themselves, flaunting flagrant disregard for care of others.

Fight the system by showing those unabashedly selfish folks some kindness! Or justice. I really dunno what's wrong with them all, but really, that's an infuriating day. My sympathies. XD

One day, I walked into class and one of the girls stuck her foot out and tripped me! When I looked at her in confusion, she just smiled at me! This is why I don't like people.
