I just mentioned grocery stores and the little inconvenience of parking and going into the store for one little item. When I go to grocery store, between parking and watching people inside the store maneuvering or attempting to maneuver their shopping carts, it scares me to think these same people actually drove to the store. People have no clue that there are other people in the store. Same goes for the parking lots. To vent my frustrations, I drawed me a little picture. My name is Simon, i like to do drawings.
Anyhow, my pet peeve is of people and shopping carts exiting the grocery store. Where highway 101 enters town, you come to a stoplight next to Fred Meyers grocery store. Safeway is just beyond that so there's a lot of traffic turning right at this light at 5:00. As you make the right hand turn into the parking lot people are exiting the farthest doorway by the check stands. With their carts loaded full of groceries, instead of walking parallel to the building all the way down to their parking spot, they walk slowly at a steep angle across the traffic lanes where cars enter the parking lot. They walk at an angle from the front door all the way to their car as traffic backs up waiting for them to get the F out of the way. Why do people do that?
I suppose after walking 150 ft you save 6 ft of walking distance by going in a straight line?
Well, that's my pet peeve of the day.
