Well I am hispanic so there's a lot I hear in my family that drives me crazy.
My mom started saying sketchu instead of schedule. That eventually caught on and now everyone in my family says sketchu instead of schedule, even some family members that speak perfect english.

Bald ones for waldbaum's...how this came out? I have no clue.
Maldonals for Mcdonald's

There's probably a lot more but those are the top ones that drive me crazy lol

Aussie slang doesn't me bother me, I think we probably share a lot of the same words.


the worst ones are the old men who come in my shop and say 'right then duckie!' duck is bad and duckie is terrible!!!!!

My absolute worst of all time: " I seen this guy..."
My ex-boss used to say that and I felt like screaming, "that's not even a proper sentence!" every time he said it...

This makes no sense, and makes you sound like an idiot.


Oh my God! My sentiments exactly. That one and "ya know what I'm sayin'" after every sentence. I had an interview for a new technician at my pharmacy. I'd ask a question and she'd was just "uh... ummm.... blah blah comment... ya know what I'm sayin'?" Yes hun, I know what you're saying. I'm not deaf or dumb.

My friend says 'brung' instead of 'brought' - drives me crazy, and yes I've told her many times but to no avail.

I used to be in customer service for like 2.5 years and I hated hearing;
referred to as "love"
or really feral people say "at the end of the day...." a lot.
I had one customer everything was;

"but at the end of the day, how does that help me? at the end of the day, I'm still left without [product], and at the end of the day, your just doing your job...blah, blah blah... etc."

Using the F word in business meetings drive me insane! It's really offensive especially when there are ladies sitting in the meeting room.
