    What about when the internet doesn't work in the designated Laptop/Internet (BYOL) area near Images Theatre?

    I think the only reliable place on campus when it comes to wireless internet is the business faculty

    hmm.. pet peeves.. oh here's one... i hate it when i walk into a store and the girls there will tailgate you where ever you go... i would appreciate it if i could have some personal space to look at what i want to look.. sales like these just drive me right out of the store..

    Pushy sales people make me laugh. When it's a retail store and the person is about the same age as me, I sort of feel bad for them cuz I know they're probably students or have other things going in their lives and are acting the way their manager wants to keep the job.

    The ones that really amuse me are the middle-aged men that sell furniture. Seriously, if you ever want to see bad sales go walk around United Furniture Warehouse or something similar. It's HILARIOUS. We were actually leading them in circles. See what happens when one trails you into the other one's "zone". They are like wolves...!

    You know what pisses me off? People who don't look me in the eyes the first time I meet them. I think that's very rude and they're probably hiding something.

    Don't feel too bad Helen, I can't use chopsticks either.

    My pet peeve is people who blame others for their mistakes and can't take any responsibility. Not cool.

    People who stand around in the hallways (especially outside C9001) and block the whole hallway off from people who are trying to walk through. Maybe we need to put lanes in (not that anyone would pay attention to them)...its a pretty simple concept, don't stand in the middle of the hall, move to the edges!



    :smile: sorry about that, but its my biggest pet peeve
