【Examples of irritating things】あるある～
On the train.
when you see bad manners on the train.
When you are shopping.
when you line up for a long time unexpectedly at a cash register.
when you pay 510 yen in cash and you don’t have a 10-yen coin.
when the manner of the staff of the convenience store is bad.
When the rest of the toilet paper is just a little.
When the small fiber in the mask touches the nose and you feel annoyed.
When you cannot find what you are looking for.
When you are driving,
Even if you let an oncoming car go first, a feeling of gratitude isn’t expressed.
When the remote controller of TV doesn’t work well.
When your PC or machine doesn’t work well and instruction manual is hard to understand.
When there are so many packing materials when you buy something on Amazon.
In your house, partners or family members' unpleasant habits.
In your workplace.
In ESS ??? lol
I am looking forward to seeing you on that day!
Best regards,
Akihiro Tabata
