PET PEEVES

[cuznjohn]

we all have somethings that bother us. one of the things that bother me is doing something that just didn't turn out like i wanted it to, so i will keep spending money to get it the way i want it. but the main reason i am writing this is because today i got my prescriptions delivered. like most prescription plans i have to get generic brands and not the originals. so today i get my pills and a couple of them look alike. i take quite a few pills a day so when i set up my weeks pills, in one of the daily dose boxes, some of them look the same. this along with the childproof bottles really gets to me. two pills i take at night look just like some of the pills i take in the morning. so if i take the night time pills in the morning i end up sleeping or feeling tired most of the day.

ok anyone else what to say what really gets to them about simple little things in life that shouldn't bother us.

Add in that sometimes the pharmacy tries to give the wrong pills. And it was never anything "good" in my situation. :roflblack:

Ever double checked the counts? They always screw up when they get to big numbers like 60 or 90.

:shocked: I'm a clock-watcher... :shocked:
If I have to be somewhere at a certain time; I consider myself to be late, if I'm not more than 10 minutes early.
If The Missus says that I was "gone for an hour", and I wasn't (It was 57 minutes); I feel compelled to correct here...
If all of the clocks in the house, office, AND all of the vehicles aren't reading the same time... :yikes:

well as far as checking the count of the pills, my mom did that for years and she also would sit down and check every item on a shopping slip, so when i was living with my ex i couldn't go home after taking mom shopping till she checked ever item, it would make me so mad that i now never check a sales receipt or count pills.

as far as time goes, i always try to be early. it would bother me when i had to wait for mom to get ready to go somewhere and it would take her forever to get ready. but i never argued the point over that

When exactly; does a Pet Peeve become an OCD issue? :shocked:

One final comment from me on the subject.

It was a slow day on the pill count. I tried it once, and they were short 5. Not worth worrying about, but it was not something expensive like the little blue pill either...:roflblack::roflblack: From an auditor standpoint...the fact that the first item you check has an error, does not bode well.

Shopping lists: Two weeks ago they zapped me twice for one item. Over $10 so I had them fix it. I usually watch the scanner, but failed to catch that one as it happened.

Time: Always there 10 to 15 minutes early. And yes, I do have some issues for those that are always 30 minutes late.

the only reason i don't count or check is because of mom. i once returned some cans for her for deposit, it came to 1.05 ans she knew i hated doing that so i think till the day she died she thought i threw them out and gave her the money out of my pocket.

Sorry, I am sometimes that guy. But I have excuses as I suffer from various ailments such as ADD, OCD, CRS, and some serious LD's.

I have never used them or know anyone that has, but I became aware about https://www.pillpack.com/ and thought if I ever need to take meds at multiple times during the day, I'd check these guys out.

Here in California we are only allowed to keep certain animals as pets
I don't think I am allowed to have a pet peev:roflblack:

You'd probably need either a breeder's, or Agricultural license.
