    Customers who hand you a thick envelope that cleary will take more than one stamp to mail and ask you if it needs more than one stamp. Then when you tell them yes it will take more than one stamp they expect you to have a scale built into your elbow so you can tell them how many stamps they need to put on it.

    When moving all that is left is the crap that is awkwardly shaped that doesn't fit in a box and has no scrap value.

    Customers that complain about making 10 bucks for scrap they think is worth the world. Kinda funny in a way tho.

    When someone says they will buy an item for x amount, then when you contact them to sell said item, you are told that they have too much inventory and can not buy said item now Now you wont get said item from me or anything else

    When people fail to dim their high beams when passing you from the opposing direction. It's even worse when they ride behind you and light up the entire interior of your car.
