I am done working at my improv club. Through my time there I had to keep myself from yelling at the customers by writing what I disliked about my customers on little post-it notes. I kept those on my mirror so that I could wake up and see them to motivate me every day.
Here are all the people I hate:
-People who don’t know what a paleontologist is
-People who wear beret’s without irony
-People who suggest quotes from “Old School” to the improv comedians
-People who laugh because they know the reference even though there was no joke aspect
-People who suggest “lazily” as an adjective

-People who give suggestions of things that the improvers could do better
-People who have domestic squabbles when I come to the table.
-People who wait to make their decisions until I get there meaning we stand in silence for two minutes waiting for them to order a water.
