Just so everyone has an example: Here are my ” beefs”!

There are lots of things I take issue with. One of my biggest pet peeves is bad customer service! I hate being made to wait at the restaurant or being treated rudely by a sales person at the store. When I bring it to their attention sometimes they are not the least bit apologetic!

I don’t like it when people chat on their cell phones while they are driving. Its unsafe and I don’t believe we should have to look out for people who can’t pay attention to the road because they are talking away on the cell phones.

I don’t tolerate rude people in my class or outside of school. I make a point of trying to treat everyone with dignity and respect. If you are behaving this way, I will ask you to stop and then I will ask you to leave.

These are just a few of my beefs! What are yours?

I agree with you, some resturaunts are annoying, and even when peole talk on the cellphone when driving, my mom does it all the time. Text messaging when driving is also really dangerous. There are rude people, and sometime we want to say something back even if we can’t.

I dislike being calm, then thinking of something gross like bugs, or mold, or blood and guts. And when I am walking outside to get something at night, then I remember a freaky movie or picture in my mind that makes me think that someones watching me or sneaking behind me.

Whenever I watch my brothers after school, they get so annoying for me, and when my mom gets home they put away their garbage and act like little angels. And when My best freind dares me to do something, then challenges me or say “do it, or else I…” Then I have to do it sometimes if I don’t beg her.

A couple of my beefs are crying kids with parents dragging them around in the supermarkets. I also hate people using mobile phones in cars because that is dangerous for everyone. Another beef is when people put down the area in which they live and always say,”I wish I could visit Australia, it is so much nicer than where I live”, yet they might be close to Yellowstone or Yosemite or the Pacific coastline. There are always beautiful places in every country of the world.
