Spray paint cans going thru the deck and up thru the ride-on catcher, they go off like a rocket. And scare the crap out of yourself.

This one REALLY GIVES ME THE SH**S!!
Contractors (even builders etc) that repair footpaths & crossovers and leave all their leftover bluemetal spread over what was once lawn/grass. I assume they dont think about their duty of care to anyone. You cant "go" the councils who own the land if something happens and you can only do your best to rake them off. There always seems to be some left over you cant see that go off like missiles with the whippy or mower, especially in longer summer grasses!!
When you turn up to one of your very best lawns that you have put a lot of effort into and there is a concrete truck parked in the middle of it pouring a new drive way and foundations for a new front fence
On a brighter note though I do see a big lawn renovation in my future

On the topic of tradies I hate it when they clean out their gear on the lawn or in the garden or you find little piles of leftover concrete or plaster in the garden. Paint brushes washed out on the lawn is a classic

Absolutely, I hate concretors (and tradies in general) with a passion. Their number one goal in life is to finish pouring and helicoptering and be in the pub before 10.30. So cleaning up after themselves doesn't even enter their tiny minds. Every single job I have been to where concretors have been there is crap left everywhere.
I'm building a house at the moment and they just don't give a F- -K. I'm growing lawn from seed and I specifically asked the builders not to throw rubbish on the lawn, may as well talk to a brick wall.
They don't consider that a cigarette butt is rubbish.
How about people that want to haggle with you on the price you gave them?
Can you haggle with the petrol station?
Can you haggle with the Tax man?
" " Insurance company?
" " Vehicle rego?
" " Tyre shop?
" " Supermarket check out chick?
" " Mower shop?
" " Auto electrician?
" " Mechanic?
" " Bottle shop attendant?
NO ?
SO DON'T F_ _ KING HAGGLE WITH ME!!!
When they try this with me when I give the a price say $60 and they say can you do it for $50 I say no $65. Sometimes the looks are priceless
