Notice to the person waiting to get on the elevator on the first floor of the student services building:

If you are waiting on the very bottom floor of a building and the elevator door opens and there is someone inside, odds are they would like to get out. Where else are they going to go? Up again? They will get out of the elevator sooner if you could please move your bulk from occupying the entire doorway. Don't act so shocked. And close your mouth (unless you really are a codfish.)

Notice to our next door neighbors:

Just because you have judged that we're not using one side of our driveway doesn't mean that your brood of adult children who have moved back in with you get to park there. I'm sorry you feel you don't have enough parking. If you cleaned out your garage you would have room for an additional two cars. You are not entitled to our guest parking so that you can continue to house umpteen adults and store all your crap in the garage.

I wouldn't deal with that well for long. I hate it when people use the dental office parking lot for the restaurant next door when we're in the middle of a busy shift (and our patients are having to park a block away). I usually leave a kind note on the car. One time, I had to put a kind note on a Jeep that was parking in the lot during our busy shift, and through a little observation, I noticed that he lived in one of the condos nearby, or maybe it was a place he spent the night at frequently. I typed a note saying that at Del Rey Dental, we'd rather keep things on a friendly level with our neighbors. So please stop hogging the space. Or something to that effect...

He never parked there again.

Notice to my Evil Overlord Boss:

We are getting tired of your manipulative ways. Do you realize I will now be working with my 7th (count 'em, 7) supervisor this year? 7? And that's efficient because, why again? Why must you keep changing everything? Why did you pawn off YOUR job to my favorite supervisor, pretending it was just a brilliant idea that you suddenly had, when we all know you had it planned out the whole time? We can see right through you. You are so predictable.

Just so you know, I'm only here for the benefits at this point. 8 more weeks and the school year is over and I'm outta here. So there.

Oh, Prudence. I know yours are serious complaints but I am laughing at the way you described them. Basically, common sense common courtesy. Etiquette is that you allow the people on the bus/elevator/etc. disembark before you attempt to board. {why does that sound like a ride spiel?} Now I am not so great, I did not realize this was a 'rule' but rather common sense but I was chastised about trying to board a bus when the people getting off were slower than molasses. 'No, they have to get off first'. Well, then, Hurry up!!!

And, I have neighbors like that.

Grrrrr.

SusieP.~your boss is just evil. Glad that you are looking forward to being able to get out.

Notice to Birds: You must've chosen a mate by now. You probably already mated. You might even have eggs in your nest. So, why the racket? Do you have to chirp all day and all night as well? Don't you get tired? Isn't Spring almost over?

Yes, they do. And they have to start right at the literal crack of dawn and not stop until the the sun is totally down.

I think you misread my post. That do it all say and all night. They do not stop.

Notice to crazy guy on SF street: You already scored yourself a cigarette off my coworker because you happened to have a lighter and all we had were matches (stupid new airline regulations). Your odds of getting a buck off of us are pretty low at that point. At least have the decency to just ask for the dollar, don't go off on some story about your car being in a parking garage and you don't want to pay with pennies.

Notice to the businesses who constantly put fliers on my door or throw ads in my driveway: Doing this by default means that you will not have my business. Period. I will not purchase anything from you if you find it necessary to hang your garbage on my doorknob or throw ads literally tied to a rock on my property.

(I did something once because I was so irritated. I got three fliers on my door from the same business in a month. So I bagged up a bunch of trash and took it and left it by the door of their business. Someone came out and asked me what I was doing, so I gave him one of his fliers back and said "If you find it necessary to leave your trash on my door, I will leave mine on yours.")
