Tantrum Tuesday - Telemarketers

Image
Well, getting calls from a telemarketer is one of the most frustrating things ever!  They always seem to call at the worst times or call several times a day.  Even when you tell them to take you off the do not call list, they never do or they sell your number to some other marketing company. So what can you do about this?!  Well, you may not be able to get them to stop calling, but perhaps you can have some fun...  So here are some things you can do do get a laugh when they do call. Interrupt the caller and tell them "Boy do I have a deal for you"  Then proceed to try and sell them something.  Could be something you actually sell or just make something up. Answer the phone and speak gibberish.  Pretend to speak some other language. When they ask for someone, tell them they aren't there and make up some crazy story like they were attacked by a shark and are in intensive care. Ask them if you can put them on hold for a minute because you have ...

Tantrum Tuesday - Oblivious Shoppers

Image
So, I don't like to shop as it is, but when I go shopping and it's super crazy, I definitely don't want to go shopping.  There is nothing worse than trying to get in and out of a store for the things you need when oblivious people are walking all around!  When I shop, I like to get in and get out as fast as I can.  Unless that store is a guitar store or hardware store, then I may just get "lost" for while... There is almost nothing more frustrating than people that walk around oblivious to their surroundings.  Walking slow in front of you, stopping and blocking the entire isle, or just cutting you off as you walk between isle's.   Or even that crazy fast person just pushing their cart like they are in the Indy 500 and almost running you over (oh wait, maybe that's me sometimes...). At any rate, lets all be aware of our surroundings.  Be courteous, aware and don't stare... :) #RookieGuru #GiveMeMore

Tantrum Tuesday - Slow Drivers

Image
To start things off, I consider myself a "good" driver, but that doesn't mean I like to drive slow.  I like to stay pretty close to the speed limit and be cautious, but one thing drives me crazy, SLOW drivers!  I'm talking those people that go well below the speed limit and stay in the passing lane so no one can go around them. I understand there are some older folks and cautious people, but what really drives me crazy are people who are just oblivious to their surroundings or are on their phones.  I saw some dude literally watching a show on his phone as he drove.  Or the lady doing her make-up while she drives.   My issue is that if you want to drive slow, stay in the right lane and allow normal people to go around you.  Also when people pull out in front of you and then drive super slow causing you to slam on your brakes.  They could have just waited 2 seconds for me to pass, but instead choose to pull out in front of me and driv...
