Ok. new rant.
I have a female friend that attended a weight watchers group and said she wanted to lose 10lbs. (shes 140lbs or so) The hogs in class snickered and belittled her to the point that she didn't want to go back.
Attention fat people: If you were as concerned with the first 10lbs as she is, you wouldn't be whining about why you can't lose 150lbs or crying yourself to sleep because your shirt size looks like a porno title.
Another thing- The reverse pisses me off even more so. Some gym bunny* is in academy with her makeup all hooker-ed up and loudly whines "why are all the workout clothes in larges and xl? Fat people don't workout and its just disgusting" A nearby customer was obviously offended and hurt.
Attn skinny chick: Going from a 4XL to a M takes more dedication, strength, pain, and discipline than most people will ever know. Dropping 5lbs might make you feel good, but its not a life changing accomplishment. Keep something else in mind- you may not wear an XL, but by someones standards you are a disgusting blob. How would you feel if the hot yoga instructor told you that girls without 6pack abs should be banned from wearing midriff shirts because its just disgusting?
In summary- don't be a ****head.
*Gym Bunny definition: skinny (read: small body but not fit) women that doll up like they are going to prom to walk on a treadmill for 60 minutes while reading cosmo magazine and pretending like she doesn't want everyone in the room staring at her. This person -always- wears color matching name brand fitness attire, yet never breaks a sweat so as not to ruin her makeup or hair. This person is privately the absolute laughingstock of those actually engaged in a fit lifestyle.

I hate when you have a want to buy thread and someone sends you a message saying they have EXACTLY what you are looking for.
So you tell them you would like to purchase/trade what is their price.
They come back and say well I have to ask my son, best friend, uncle and the homeless man I know to see if they want it first.
...... Why wouldn't you ask them before you even sent it to me. So then and entire day I have waited you come back and say, well my uncle wanted it so he gets it.
Well that's great I'm glad he got it if he wanted it but you should have asked him before you even sent it to me. Wasting my time and thinking I was gonna get the gun I was looking for.
It may be nothing to some of you but it is a pet peeve of mine and pisses me off.

Entitlement. I had a patient complain about being in an acute care setting (they had a proceedure done that required it) instead of back on the telemetry floor "Why did I have to come to this room?". The basis for their complaint was "I got good service THERE". The reason was that their TV volume controller was not wired correctly, and I had to adjust the volume for them.
Couple that with HCAP scores dictating about 30% of their bill payment, as I understand it.
Entitlement. That's my rant today.
...and you wonder why healthcare is so expensive. 30% of that bill is likely to be "eaten". But they don't really get eaten. It comes out in the wash...YOU eat it. I eat it. WE ALL eat it.

My Trans-Am's kept burning out. Shorted or literally exploded every time it rained. At least the brakes worked and it didn't run out of fuel while showing over 1/4 tank on the gauge.
1. Airlines that overbook flights.
2. Crying babies on airplanes.
3. The prices of a cold drink at airports.
4. TSA or Security in general, pat downs.
5. People with a window seat who know damn good and well they have to **** every 20 minutes.
6. Places with 25 or more registers but only 2 cashiers working.

Babies cry, but they also sleep. The worst are crying *kids*. I can't be upset at a 6mo old for crying between naps, but if you can't stop your 5yr old from screaming and throwing a tantrum you deserve to be tossed out of the door located in row 8.
The air pressure difference when flying often makes kids go berzerk because they don't know how to re-adjust by popping the ears. If it ever gets too bad just offer mom some gum to give them, that usually does the trick.
This legit made me laugh just now because it's so true. I personally welcome everyone at our gym when they first start working out. Everyone was a newbie at some point. And everyone is different / has different goals. I cannot tell you how much it bothers me when in shape and fit people make fun of those who are out of shape and overweight. But you know what? They're trying. They're putting effort forth and they're doing more than just sitting on the couch at home and eating ding dongs.
And the makeup wearing matchy matchy girls at the gym? We have those too. Hell, I wear all nike crap but that's just me. It's the girls who dress head to toe in Lulu and come with perfect makeup who try to lift 15lbs to squat and they get "overheated" too quickly and have to stop while the rest of us are throwing around 75lbs and whatnot. I know 15 lbs is a lot for some people, but COME ON. Sweat is good for you.
(Oh, and I don't have a problem with most of the ladies at my gym who wear makeup because a lot of them come straight from work and just don't care enough to wash it off before a workout.)
People that park in Handicapped spaces that aren't handicapped . The license is for a family member but they abuse the priveledge . And if you complain to the manager of the business you get a deer in the headlights look .
People who misspell an acronym.
It's HCAHPS (Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems).
Just had to mess with ya.
And I didn't think it affected payment, YET.
We're exempt from the HCAHPS requirements but started doing the surveys a few months back.

My paraphrased rant(s):
The stupid girl at work that gets to work ealry knowing that she has absolutely no work to do and then attempts to back her SUV in right next to my truck when the whole damn parking lot is empty. She couldn't park a smart car (while on the subject of smart cars, they bug me too) in a 1 acre field correctly! Then the fool stays at work late sufing the internet because she doesn't want to go home to her husband and tries to chit-chat with me while I'm trying to get crap done so I can go home to my wife and son.
The stupid people I work with (non parking girl included) who come to work and watched Netflix and take naps all day long because nobody wants to give them work to do because they are likely to screw it up, and then have the nerves to complain how they are so tired when they get home...... I guess the naps didn't help them. Meanwhile, I stay buried in my work and always get pulled off of one job to go help on another then have to scramble to complete the first job I was on, when there is an office of available staff. And all this knowing damn well that I'm making the same same pay as these lazy fockers.
On the flip side of the lazy workers, that guy that devoted his whole life to his job and knows nothing beyond his desk. And all he wants to do is talk about work and even text me on the weekends when I'm in the duck blind about something cool he learned in XYZ program. That's great guy, but show it to me on Monday. I bust ass all week long. Let me enjoy life away from the office.
People who work at an automotive parts store who have obviously never opened the hood of a vehicle before. They rely solely on their little computer that is the same damn system as trying to buy the part online. Where are the old wrench turners who know how to cross reference parts? The little chick behind the counter is nice to look at, but that doesn't help me find the right part dammit.
When younger people talk to me and assume that because I'm in my mid to late 20's I speak ebonics and refer to me as "My Dawg" and "My Baw." Or the terms "Ya Herd Me" and "Ya feel me."
