    I like how #8 is the last scene from Raiders of the Lost Ark. I liked #2 also.
    My formula for living is quite simple. I get up in the morning and I go to bed at night. In between, I occupy myself as best I can.---Cary Grant

      I liked the whole list.
      I don't have an attitude problem. You have a perception problem.

        Haha that was brilliant. XD

        #7 is absolutely right. Every time there's massive queues, my main thought is, "Where are all these bloody people coming from?! This is meant to be a small town!" I loved #8... it's funny cuz it's true! And of course, #12. Every time Christmas comes round again, I thank my lucky stars that I work in the petrol station and have complete control over the music that gets played there.

          I like 10.

          Although for 11 ... from the stories here I know it can be far far worse than that. (as in #2 kind of worse )

            A lot of those are true for hotels too I mention #7 and #5 on a weekly basis for sure.

              This site proves Corey Taylor right. Man really is a "four letter word."

                  Too. True. ;.;

                  For #8, our store room looks exactly like the customer thinks it does - except it's half the size of that first room, and all those boxes and crates? They're empty.
