re: Office Pet Peeves

Leaving the Keurig without any water.

Co-workers that are passive aggressive in emails, just man up and be aggressive...

Stupid sayings like: "What's the word?"

Disingenuous comments and bullshite conversation.

Co-workers that lie about their accomplishments when everyone knows they are full of shite.

Female Co-workers that claim sexual harassment over anything.

Millennials that put up 1,000 pictures of themselves.

Millennials that use terms like "Bullying"

We have one guy in the office who says "you dominating?" every time he comes into ur office. After 15 years it is old.

But are..... "you dominating?"

We have a small office with apartment-type bathrooms.

---

We have separate bathrooms. The male bathroom has two urinals and two crappers. Pisses me off when there is piss on the crapper seat... who the frick does that when there are urinals. Maybe it can get backed up with roughly 40 males here, but pick the damn seat up at least.

That and someone always takes the rolls of tp off the dispenser thing. disgusting! like eating the peanuts at a bar almost.

Women co-workers who:

Constantly take off work, comes in late, leaves early
Complain about how hard motherhood is
Complain because she is so busy
Complains about being underpaid
Gets a raise
Becomes less busy
Gets pregnant
Then complains about not getting enough time off for pregnancy

When people pass my office and look in.. every single time.

Your office doesn't have a fricking door?

Aside from that I never look in someone's office when walking by, but that's only because I don't want them to start making conversation with me.

There are a few people in my building that think looking at them is an invite to a 30 minute conversation about nothing I give a frick about, so that's when I learned not to look. lol Maybe you should try that to the lookers.

I'll pull my door mostly shut to avoid this in the afternoon. It doesn't help that I'm right next to the water fountain and bathroom. It's like a parade some days.
Feels similar to that one second eye contact with the person in the car next to you at a red light. Something creepy about it.

Boss does this

-Just drops into your office to do nothing more than gossip about shite you don't care about because you're busy actually doing your job

Guy next to my office does this..multiple times a day. He's a cool guy, though.

eople that eat other people's food from the shared refrigerator.

- People who gets a ringtone thats a theme song or something and thinks its cool as hell so they wait an extra ring or two to answer it to make sure people hear it.

- The phrases "that's a whole different animal" or "you know how you eat an elephant? one bite at a time."

- People who tells everybody about their personal life.

- People who say they can do something with no problem, but when they start they have no fricking clue what they are doing.

- People who really likes to fish and goes around talking to people about fishing and says shite like "people think fishing is mostly luck, but its not, you have to know what baits to use and when to use them. Know what part of the day different types of fish are more active. There is a lot of skill involved".

- People who kiss the higher ups asses to the point you can tell it annoys the frick out of the higher ups.

- Burning popcorn in the microwave.

- People who think its "crazy" to go to Hooters.

- People who are "huge LSU football fans", but its like they are only to fit in, but you can tell they are one of those people who watches the game with people who know nothing about football, but thinks that person knows a lot because they don't know enough to know he is a fricking idiot.

HATE when I'm on my phone and people come up to me and start asking me for things or talking to me.

this bugs me too. If I'm on the phone and I can tell somebody is trying to get my attention, I just make sure not to make eye contact and ignore until I'm off the phone.
