People who take more than 20 seconds to use a cashpoint.
WTF are you doing? Stick the card in, put in your number, Cash, £40, done.
Why are you still pressing buttons - are you trying to hack into MI5?
Finally, you're done. What's that? You now reaching into your purse for another card? GTFO - cashpoints are for people with money. Go be broke somewhere else.

Also, people who buy something and try to be helpful by giving the pence bit in change so that the change they get back is a round number BUT spend ages searching for the right amount of change scrambling through their pockets or purses and then can't do the basic arithmetic to work out what change they should be handing over to the assistant.
Old people.

You're OK though, maybe an exception.

UK's broadband network/coverage. Abysmal compared to lots of other countries that we should at least be on a par with.

People who take £10 out of a cash machine. FFS. Take more out. That way you won't have to use the thing every 5 minutes.

Same for fuel. People who put £10 worth of petrol in, spend ages trying to work out the pump (as they are all so different), then have to work out how the open the petrol cap, then put the blue gloves on (WTF is that all about?), then fill it slowly to the £10 level, then spend ages taking off the gloves, putting the cap back, then go in to pay (probably split between a card with a £5 limit and cash), then they come back out and sit in their car for ages examining their receipt, applying their make-up (girls as well), picking their nose, adjusting their seat (yeah, because it's moved loads since you sat in it last), checking the receipt again, putting on their seat-belt, checking their mirror, pulling out slowly, stopping so they can change the radio station or change the CD to the 'Best of Steps', put their lights on, pull out slowly a bit further, stop to let three people walk in front, let two other cars pull out, then eventually drive off.
Why are these people always at the pump I queue behind?

Petrol stations come supermarkets.
Yes they are convenient but I believe they are the downfall of this country. When petrol stations just sold fuel and other motoring related items we all did our shopping at the local shops and the money we spent stayed local. These local shops were the lifeblood of the local community. Along come petrol stations trying to expand their wares and the next thing you know is that Bolt has been banned, Blatch has grimmed the world, the bankers have gambled (and lost) our money, 2 Gulf wars, 9/11, 7/7. Joking aside you can now get all you need to survive from a petrol station from food and drink to medication and news papers and all this means that the large super market chains play such an integral part of our lives that we lost what it really means to be a community.

Petrol stations at supermarkets selling loads of additional goods and being more expensive. WTF? The supermarket is just 100 yards away, how the hell can you charge £1 more for the same bottle of water?

...and these same petrol stations/Tesco Expresses only ever have one or two staff on the tills. Every pump in use, people queuing and people getting loads of shopping all being served by two halfwits who want to talk to each other rather than serve customers.

Yeah, Sainsbury's in Edinburgh did that on a Sunday when they had their "Get 10p per litre off when spending £60 or more in the shop" offer on.
That went well.
