Another of my slight, almost-obsessive pet peeves maybe... Why do people, at the supermarket, systematically have to take ONE bottle of water out of the pack... but then do that on 6 different packs? One pack already open, isn't that enough already to pick just one bottle in it?
(And I'm talking of having to half-crawl within the shelves, in order to grab a pack that hasn't been opened yet... only to discover that this one, too, is lacking a bottle.)
I'm just trying to put myself in the shoes of these people... "I need only one bottle of water. What will I do? A) Take a bottle from a pack that is already open, B) Open a brand new pack to take my stupid bottle... let's see.. uuuhm... I choose B, YAYH!"
I could sorta vaguely consider the possibility of understanding if it was out of sheer lazyness, but when it's on the pack that is deep inside the shelves, and forces the person to make a physical effort to grab it? WTF? I can't believe that, the human race isn't that hard-working!!
Go fig...
wtf
