What do your co-workers do that annoys

  • At my old job, I used to have to listen to this woman talk incessantly about how she was cheating on her mean husband with some internet guy. And then every time she'd be preparing to go visit the internet guy, I had to hear all about it. And then every time she'd come home, I'd hear all about their weekend. And I mean ALL about it. :o I really think she thought I couldn't hear her. But...I could. :o:D

    There is this one girl who is always taking too long of breaks, a long lunch and is always posting on some message board. She also complains that it is too hot and brings her own fan from home......oh wait, that's me. :)

    :p

    sounds familiar..............except the fan part.
    So I'll just lie down and wait for the dream

    1. hold a fuckin cup of tea/coffee in two hands like they're sat in the freezing cold outside, or drink coffee out of a coffee cup with a lid on like a baby would drink from a baby beaker.
    I HATE that too!.. I'm not sure why, but it looks annoying. It makes people look like they just got saved from starvation and freezing to death outside.

    Nope. He's only 7 months old. I'm still in charge.


    yeah so you think... he'll pee on you if he wants to. ;)

    my boss has to be one of the most annoying people .. he repeats everything about 3 times a day until i have to say "hey Bossanova.. you've told me that 3 times now.. it wasnt even funny the first time!!" then he doesnt speak to me for a day... i like that
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    This guy works next to me sometimes, and suddenly and without warning he scrapes his throat clean, even mid sentence, but acts like nothing has happened??? I can't say anything, he was in the para's for 20 years, he can kill you with a glance, he's nails. He also quite likes PJ, so he's ok really.
    The othe rside of me this old guy is as deaf as a post, and whenenver you ask him something, he replies.."that's whatsaname"...he knows everything, but can't access it!
    I came, I saw, I concurred.....

  • Well I work in retail, and i work out on the floor so we have these walkie talkie things we have to carry around so if they need something up front they can just call us on them for whatever. One of the head cashiers up front never holds down the button right or long enough and you can only understand a couple words of what she's trying to say if at all, then she'll get mad at you when you don't understand or don't hear her.

  • the shit out of you?

    I'll start.....

    1. or drink coffee out of a coffee cup with a lid on like a baby would drink from a

    You do realize it avoids spills and keeps the coffee hot a lot longer if you leave the lid on...

    oh wait...you don't realize... :p

    and that bothers you?...oh fuck you're in for a hard life... hehe

    In my last job back in England this fella used to suck the tea out of his cup. One day I snapped and told him to stop drinking like a two year old. I told him that rather than suck the tea into his mouth, why not just tilt the fucking cup instead so the liquid inside ran into his mouth.
    Noisy drinkers, and especially noisy eaters, annoy the fuck out of me.

    yeah thats more like what i meant with the lid thing, not the fact they are keeping it hot for longer (cos its fucking freezing indoors aint it?) the horrible sucking of the tea like a fuckin idiot baby or something!!!!

    aaaah thats better.........;)

    Oh, bejeezus. You nailed it!!
    Slurping tea should be punishable by flogging, as should chewing food with an open mouth, or just plain noisy chomping...and exagerated gum chewing!!!!!!!!.

    :D that's great! you made me almost spit out my coffee just now!



    I have a co-worker, that if she gets worked up or too chatty, will go on and on and on in a story...but the story becomes a tree, related to the people or persons she's talking about, to someone else, then branches into someone else,,,,,and before you know it, the story is completely lost and you're hearing about people in her life from her childhood, or from 20 - 30 years ago.

    and you don't know these people.
    and you need to actually work.
    and one of the stories could go on for anywhere from 2 - 60 minutes it feels like. or an entire day.
    and you can't get away.
    and you're thinking, 'what the fuck were we talking about in the first place?'

    oh god yeah i seem to be plagued by the people who have to talk as loud as they can and about fuck all of any interest, seriously unless you have had to have the full conversation of two people re-enacted about buying a new microwave you should count ya self lucky! "so then i said to mark, when did we get the microwave, was it march 2006" and mark said "yeah i think it was, or was it april" and i said "yeah it might have been april, im not sure" and mark said "yeah i think it was ya know" this continued for at least one hour in the dullest monotonous voice you would ever wish to not hear! :( grrrrrrr!!!


    I have one of those, all day long. The worst is she never finishes one question before starting another about the same thing. It usually takes her 7 questions to get one question out. Also you can never have a conversation with anyone without her butting in. If you ask a co-worker anything, she has something to say from across the room. She is mainly a nice person, but we tend to leave her out of all our outside work get togethers. We used to feel bad but no more. Shit. A saving Grace, she doesn't work Fridays!!
    Thank you fellow 10 clubber for saving my ass....again!!!

    You're lucky!!! I'd rather have a variety of mundane comments rather than the full conversation that took place between her and her poor husband about the microwave, honestly you have never heard such an indepth report about buying a fuckin electrical appliance!!!

  • I love this guy to death, but he can't do his work on his own. So he turns to me to figure out his problems. Which at first was OK. Shit, we all have to learn somehow. But it's been a year now. Figure out your job or get out. We have the tools to find the answers to his questions, but he refuses to take the time to look the information up. And I'll send him back to find the info but he gets PISSED because he either can't find it or can't squeeze the answers out of what he has to read.

    So I'm convinced that in my line of work there should be testing required before they send you out on your own. If you don't know the basics and how to put files together, you shouldn't be in the business. Period.

    What makes it worse, is that he's a retired cop (not that old) on a pension so he doesn't REALLY need the money. It's kind of just for fun. But it's extremely distracting to ME who does work to pay the bills. And I'm super busy to boot.

    I had a guy like this at my last job, only he was working to pay the bills as well as I was.
    I didn't think it was a particularly hard job, but he'd ask me the same questions on how to do the simplest tasks every two weeks or so. A lot of his problem I think, was his lack of computer know-how, and his inability to grasp computer-related concepts.
