So yesterday I'm in class and one of my classmates was doing a presentation on cirrhosis of the liver. The lady I was sitting next to decided she was hungry and pulls out a bag of almonds and starts eating them in the middle of the presentation. The room was silent except for the presenter talking so you could clearly hear her eating them. She would crinkle the bag, crunch them very loudly, smack her mouth, then when she was done, she starting obnoxiously sucking nuts out of her teeth!
I couldn't concentrate at all thanks to her eating like a goat the whole time.
I know it's a silly thing to vent about, but for person who is going to be a nurse, I don't think thats very professional behavior!
Some things can be pretty transparent lol Back to those pesky annoying things that our wonderful classmates do!
Yes, annoying like this:
In my lab sometimes we do these physio-ex virtual labs on the computer. We have done them 3 times and every time, I do the lab on the computer and my lab partner just sits there and watches me. Every time before we start I ask her would she like to operate the computer since she hasn't done it yet...and every time she tells me that I'm going to have to do it because she has had a long, stressful day at work and she is just really not good at using computers. I'm thinking "HELLO!. You don't think Ive had a stressful day?!?!" Ugh makes me so mad. She really isn't pulling her weight!

Honestly, loud chewing or chewing with your mouth open is my BIGGEST pet peeve.
