Most obnoxious Ikea delivery ever.

Have one of those horrible old buzzers that are really unpleasant. Like scare you half to death when they go off. The delivery guy doesn’t just press it once or twice politely, but proceeds to press it multiple times and then long presses it twice.

Can’t remember wanting to kick someone this much in a long time. Face, preferably.

We have a non-obnoxious doorbell but every time a delivery guy abuses it GRAAAR

(Seriously. It's like 5m from my chair to the front door and i'm daily expecting deliveries for work. If you press the doorbell more than once in the time it takes me to traverse that distance, i should legally be authorised to commit violence. )
