What are some small things that grind your gears? (sh.itjust.works)

We hear about the freakouts, the verbal lashings, the accidents and many more.
But what are some small things, things that have little consequence but are still infuriating or that drive you up the wall?
Here are some examples of my own:

People flocking to the metro doors without leaving proper space for people to leave.
Hearing the same 3 questions at work every time.
People walking slow enough to pass but not letting you.

Uber/Dash drivers parking wherever suits them, blocking lanes. Inconsiderate pricks!

Then I get annoyed at the companies forcing them to meet unrealistic expectations or they stop getting jobs.

Then I get annoyed at myself for getting annoyed at the poor bastards busting their asses to make a living in a system that treats them as entirely replaceable.

I see so many uber drivers double parked right next to wide open parking on the side of the road. Not wanting parallel park I get, but just pull off to the side dude it's wide open! Your fare is slamming the rest of their beer, you got time!
