I'd like to work on dealing with indirect people. Indirect people can get on my nerves. I'm better about it now, I think, but sometimes I find myself understanding what they want, but refusing them what they want by pretending not to understand.

One thing I don't see on your list is dealing with nervous people. Nervous people get to me too. Sometimes I want to bite them. Nervousness can spread faster than a yawn, or a nasty cold through a college dorm. Plus, it's gross.
