The Haps

You can take your burrito back Paco! - How to throw burritos at Taco Bell employees.

Two things that irritate me. Pet peeves, if you will...

Numero Uno - when you buy a new CD and you finally get the "government plastic" ripped off only to find that darn sticker on the top, bottom, and side of the disc. Impossible to remove and never a pretty sight when opened, because you are bound to have some sticky residue left over somewhere.

Ok, #2. I hate and will no longer patronize establishments that do not use debit cards as a form of payment. Ok, actually, what's worse...when the establishment charges you a "nominal" fee for using your debit card! I was in the Taco Bell drive-thru in Fresno a couple of weeks ago. I handed my debit card to the 16 year old drive-thru communications specialist. He informed me that my card would be charged an additional 99cents. I looked at him, asked him to acknowledge the fact that the burrito I ordered was a mere 89 cents. Was it so necessary to gouge me for a single burrito? Without hesitation I threw the burrito back in his direction and burned some rubber.
