People that are late all the time and think it's some sort of quirky acceptable trait

When I was a relatively junior manager in social services many social workers always seemed to be late. In the end if they were more than 15 minutes late I’d tell them to reschedule the meeting. After a rocky start this worked and meetings started as scheduled.
Lateness pisses me off, it does so because being late for something or the thought of being late stresses me out and I will always give people the benefit of the doubt and imagine how worked up they will be getting.
Which I reckon is fair until you find it's the same people always late for everything without seeing to care, that gets right up my nose

Customers in supermarkets who insist on hunting through every pocket and every bag they have to find the odd change when the cashier has a damn drawer full of it and doesn't need you to hold up the queue any longer than you already have by insisting on waiting until everything has been scanned before you even think about looking for your bags (or realising you've left them in the car/at home) and proceed to try and squeeze a week's worth of shopping into a single carrier bag.

What about when you're waiting behind someone at the "pay at the pump" pumps at the petrol station and they get in and sit in the car for a few minutes while they faff about putting their wallet / purse away etc, giving you the occasional look in the mirror, to make sure you're still sitting their waiting for them.

A number of people here (not all by any means, but enough) think it's perfectly acceptable to leave their car at the pump while they pay, and then have a coffee...

Choking on fibre glass and dust working in the attic because all the dust masks have been bought up by the melts who ignore the well publicised facts that face masks, let alone DIY dust masks, don’t protect against Covid-19. What about the tradesmen who rely on dust masks and have a choice between damaging their lungs or not working.

Do all French supermarkets also have really short conveyor belts with minimal packing space? Or is that just in ski resorts?

Spanish supermarkets are exactly the same.
Also the same when in Italy last year. Tiny short belts and no space after the scan. took ages
When you leave your yoghurt in the fridge at work that 'goes off' on sunday 1st, but know it'll be fine on Monday 2nd if kept in the fridge. the cleaner clears the fridge on a friday at 2pm, so i put it in there at 4pm friday so that it would not be thrown away. I've come in today and just went to get it, it's not in the fridge (with some fruit that equally would have been fine a day past it's date) it's on the side with a host of mouldy food and has probably been sat there all weekend. That's annoying. Dry granola for breakfast anyone?
