Right, by some people. Now, if this were a real situation in a clinic and not a persecution fantasy, chances are the therapist would inquire how and why those people cause annoyance exactly. Basically: is your reaction reasonable (annoyed by someone causing you actual harm, non-trivial discomfort, etc.) or unreasonable (annoyed by trivial things such as someone's clothes, skin colour if you're a racist, etc.)?
Do you take out that anger and resentment upon other people, in ways which are harmful to them? Is your daily life hampered by those emotions? If not, it probably doesn't count as a symptom.
It is not abnormal to react negatively to ridiculous tasks.
I don't believe that psychologists would count these things as actual symptoms. Probably you're fine and healthy.
