I cant stand it when people are late. Not only that I cant stand it when they give you a time and they are beyond late. THis makes no sense to me because its sooo easy to pick up the phone and say hey I'm late dont you think? This is my biggest pet peeve what about you?

LOL, what timing. My husband just waltzed in the door half an hour late from work, while I am swamped with screaming babies. He didn't call all day, and I had no idea what time he was getting home. Some nights he's out 2 hours late so I was afraid it would be a late night. I've told him thousands of times to call so I know, he never listens. Then he walks in as if there's nothing wrong. I give him that look and he thinks it's cause of the kids instead of him. He has yet to even explain because he's putting the kids to sleep. Other than that I have zillions of pet peeves, but I'm still fuming over this right now.. so i'll have to get back to you on that.

Yes, I would have to agree with you that this has always been a pet peeve of mine. I've always been a timely person and it aggravates me when others make me late. I understand your current situation, I would be fuming too!

I do find it rather annoying. With cellphones being so popular now, I don't see how it's so hard to pick up the phone and call. That or just start getting ready to go where you have to go earlier and don't fool around as much. It's really not that hard.

I am the same way. I cannot understand why some people are late, they know how long it takes them to get somewhere and know when to start getting ready. IT really ticks me off. Now there are times that it is unavoidable but then we all can call. I am with you on this one.

Oh my goodness, tell me about it. My bf is the world's worst. He was 2 hours late last night after mass, and does he bother to call so that no one worries about him. It would save us an argument and some grief if he would just call.

Yeah it's one of my biggest pet peeve too. I mean it's just so stupid. I try my best not to be late. And it's rare if I am and If I am ever late to something I make sure to call. It's like would you do the same thing if it was a job interview or something? When I go somewhere I always make sure to leave earlier so that I get there earlier than I am supposed to.

yes you are right. I got the same problem. I get mad when people come in late and do not even care to apologize for it.
