Friday

1) When you’re in a crowded elevator going down at the end of the day, and it stops at a lot of floors, someone inevitably makes the “guess we’re on a local. heh.” comment. Does this only happen in New York? It always makes me want to hit the person who said it. 

2) On said crowded elevator, when people try to shove themselves on, because ZOMG, its the last elevator ever! People, its an elevator bank of 10, there will be another one VERY soon. To an extent, it annoys me when people do this on the subway, but I understand it a lot better, in the sense that at rush hour, its unlikely the next train will be any better. However, I did have this experience once on the E train where people would not stop cramming in, the doors could not be closed, and no one would get off the train, and finally they just shut down the train and made everyone get off. That made me cranky. 

3) People who walk slow, especially through scaffolding passages because this creates even worse bottlenecks

4) Commuting in The Heat. My god, The Heat! 

5) When its 3 PM on a Friday, the phones are silent, there’s no work to be done, and everyone wants to go home, but still has to sit around occupying space because there are no summer hours to be had. At this hour of the week, even my realiable email buddies are sick of hearing me prattle and I don’t have the joy of exchanging minutia with them. Kevin, I will forgive, but Drucifer better step it up.
