Bug List (Week 2)

1. The third floor of Library West is a quiet floor, so many students head there to study. However, it bugs me that it is also the hottest floor in the libary. The fourth floor is even more quiet, but disturbingly cold.
• I think there is a structural problem in the way the air conditioning units were designed within the library and the floors that the AC distributes toward.
2. On certain three day weekends, where a national holiday is included, the libraries on campus are closed but are open on the holiday. For example, the weekend of 1/15-1/18, the library is closed on Sunday but is open on Monday, when it is Martin Luther King Day.
• They must schedule the staff that works in the library in that manner.
3. There is not enough street parking in the city parking Zone 1 of Gainesville. They give out more street parking decals for that zone that there are enough spaces to park.
• There might be just enough spaces for cars but sometimes, people park taking up too much space, or students feel the need to park their scooters in spaces meant for cars.
4. Apple's iPhone chargers are very flimsy and break easily.
• The cords are very delicate and when students are constantly putting their cords in and out of backpacks, it might cause wear and tear.
5. Archer Road becomes very congested around 5-7pm.
• This is because many students and faculty are trying to leave the University of Florida campus.
6. The turnpike after Thanksgiving break is backed up and very congested.
• Students are all driving back to campus to UF, FSU, UCF, UNF, and etc.
7. It bugs me that sometimes I am forced to buy a textbook for class JUST for the access code, sometimes paying up to $100 to not use the textbooks at all, but the online code.
• Publishers and the school is trying to make a profit.
8. The Starbucks on campus gives you drinks that are very watered down or sloppily made.
• The campus Starbucks are usually packed and the workers have to move in a fast-pace, sometimes hurrying up the orders.
9. Flight delays with the airlines that seem to be based in the U.S., such as United, American Airlines, Delta, and Spirit.
• Although sometimes they may be due to weather, there have been countless times that my flights were delayed due to poor organization, planning, staffing, and irresponsiblity by the airline.
10. Terrible customer service in American airports and airlines in America in general.
• The customer service that I get in Korean airports and Korean Airlines goes above and beyond. In the U.S., they treat you like you are a hassle and often rude. Cultural differences and low-wage paying job may be the reason.
11. Friends who use their phone during meals or hangout time.
• They have just become too dependent on their phones and may not realize their rudeness.
12. People who are late for appointments or meeting-times.
• As a punctual person, I hate waiting around for people because it wastes my time.
13. Professors who read from their PowerPoint.
• In this day and age, they should make their lectures interesting and worthwhile.
14. Homeless guys in Gainesville and the way they talk to girls who pass them on the street.
• There may be no clear-cut reason except harassment.
15. Roommates who are not considerate of their wastefulness.
• They are just unaware of how wasteful they are in terms of turning off the lights, AC, water, and heat.
16. Loud neighbors.
• They are unaware of extremely inconsiderate.
17. Servers who only check on you once or no times during the night.
• It's either extremely busy or they are doing a poor job.
18. People who expect things from you but won't return the favor.
• It's a give-and-take world and although I am happy to do some things, if it's a constant getting nothing in return deal, then the situation isn't fair.
19. Classes that have group projects.
• It's not fair for professors to assign group projects where are grades are dependent on each other's ability to do work. A lot of the times, you can't count on group members and someone ALWAYS does the majority of the work.
20. Slackers in group projects.
• They're just inconsiderate and lazy.

I did not find the bug list difficult to come up with as everyone has similar views on these pet peeves.
