My new boss likes to send emails to several people with the greeting “All” or “Team” or whatever but then a couple of paragraphs in, she’ll put someone’s name in bold font and assign that person to do something. In Outlook’s preview, it looks like just a team email but now I have to read through to make sure I don’t miss something.
I work with a lot of contract developers. There is a lot of washing that takes place at the bathroom sinks. Splashing water in their face, hair, and neck but avoiding the soap and then slurping several mouthfuls of water that get swished around their mouths and then spit back into the sink.

Women who walk down the hall and say something to(ward) you, and you reply, she just points to the Bluetooth earpiece.
Women who use a "sweet" voice when they need something from you. Like I'm not going to help you with a heavy or high object, or to figure out your computer problem, unless you change your voice in a way that makes you sound sexually available. (Not interested in your fat asses anyway.)
Teachers who are late... every day. No repercussions because there are no teachers to replace them.
Jesus ladies. My sister died back in 2020. I didn't let anyone at work know because I didn't need the Jesus ladies telling me about God's plan.
Slobs. I go to cover a class (because the teachers is late or taking their 20th sick day) and their room is a mess. Dusty everywhere, can't even see the top of their desk. My room stays neat and clean. Set a fricking example, people.

secretaries who won't put out until you threaten their job.

At a prior job, too many meetings with too many people who didn’t need to be there. The Michael Scott style impromptu ones being the worst.

Not an office job but…
I do another guy’s job 2 days a week on his days off. I’m very good at it. It was my primary job for 10 years. Management always wants me to fix everything that has been spiraling down since the last time I did it. I don’t get why they don’t make him do it correctly the 5 days a week he does it.

1. People who splash so much water after using the restroom sink, it looks like Shamu just gave a performance.
2. One person in particular who never contributes even $1 when money is being collected for anything including a plant to send to someone who had a death in the family, but then will ask everyone repeatedly to help Braxton's volleyball team by purchasing a dozen Krispy Krene donuts for $25.

It's even worse that the free coffee cups have free lids to go with them. But I work with a few Neanderthals who still can't make it from the coffee pot to their desk without spilling EVERY. FREEKING. DAY.

Going into the bathroom and texting for 15 minutes at a time when other people are waiting to use the facilities.

When some a-hole burns popcorn in the microwave and it smells up the whole building. Nasty stuff.

Edited: Jesus you guys I hope most of you are kidding about your descriptions of your office. I think I would just murder myself if I had to work in a damn office.
I feel for you poor bastards.

People who habitually schedule 12:00pm meetings knowing lunchtime ends at 12:00pm.

Smokers who go out and smoke entire lunch break then come in and walk into my office stinking of second hand cigarette smoke.

“I hope this email finds you well”
I’m so sick of emails that start with that. It’s so stupid. C’mon get to the point or be clever or witty.

For me, it's the long-winded conversations about a coworker's child or their vacation.
I like my coworkers, but I just can't seem to get myself to care. It's really painful.

We have a guy in the office that has a “buddy” for everything. He’s the most annoying motherfricker I’ve ever met. Every conversation he engages in goes like…
“Yeah my buddy has a hunting camp in MS and we always take the fam”
“Yeah I have a buddy who’s actually my custom suit tailor in New Orleans who makes my Mardi Gras suit every year”
“Yeah I have a buddy down in grand isle who owns 2 camps and we just go whenever we want”
“Yeah I have a buddy in the LSU ticket office who’s married to my 3rd cousins sister and he always hooks us up”
Yeah frick that dude.
