if they haven't already been mentioned.

1. When I am at a cash register buying something and the clerk doesn't tell me the total, he/she just stares at me.

2. When someone calls my phone and says, "Who is this?"

I know. Usually, when someone calls my phone and does not leave a message, I will call the number on the Caller ID, and ask who they are and what they want.

I thought the purpose of caller ID was to screen calls so that you do not have to talk to people that you don't recognize, or do not want to talk to.

Right on. Nothing more annoying than accidentally dialing a wrong number, then having some self-absorbed phone nazi call you back wanting to know who you are and why you were calling their phone.

I agree. I never understand people who research their caller ID for numbers they don't recognize and then call people back. Do they think that when they call back somebody is going to say "Oh sorry - I was casing your house for a burglary attempt, but I see that you are home now, so thanks for calling."

It's gotten to the point now that when I realize that I dialed a wrong number, I just go ahead and stay on the line and apologize.

I ask for susan or steve, and if it is susan or steve I carry on as if I know them.

I work in the mental health field so you can only imagine the number of these calls I get on a daily basis.

I was struck by the flipside of this over the weekend. Several of the NFL draftees spoke of how they saw the area code on their caller ID and that's how they knew where they were going. Ain't technology grand...

Do a phone lookup, call them back, and recite their home address telling them you'll drop by if they call your number again....if you feel completely bored or adventurous...or like a phone nazi.

Seriously, I get this same lady who will call every 4 or 5 days or so. When I say, "Hello", she's talking to someone in the background. I say, "HELLO?!!", she's still talking to someone in the background. Finally, she says, "Who dis is?"

When I am checking out of Hotel in Pittsburgh and a very angry person literally yells at me and says, "I was in line first and I'm ahead of you!".

People who do not use their turn signals.
