People who change their voices or accents when talking about different people or places.

That one coworker who makes super strong molasses coffee who dumps out the coffee I make because “it’s too weak”.

At least she asks me if I want anymore right before she dumps it.

Talking loudly on the phone.
Telling me about your sad, trashy divorce without me asking about it.
Using the microwave and leaving time left on the microwave when it takes 0 effort to hit cancel.

This is all the same lady, so she is my office pet peeve.

When two people who sit in offices next to me, get on speaker phone and talk to each other. Their offices are next door to each other and I have to listen to their damn conversations!

When the engineers don’t have the TPC reports ready for me to present to our customers.

I’ve got one that also applies to being at home



If I’m sitting down and eating a meal, and you’re NOT, don’t fricking stand there and try to have a conversation with me. For fricks sake, just let me eat in peace and then we can discuss whatever the frick you want when I’m done eating

My wife does this at the house too and it drives me insane. I don’t want to have a conversation while I’m trying to chew and swallow food

Yes it was.

Man, I got a girl I worked with so good back then. That thing drove her insane for 2 or 3 days. I finally had to confess when she was calling IT and scheduling an appointment for them to come look at her computer.

Generally - co-workers.

Specifically - "Hey I see you are busy, but this won't take a minute..."

Sending me an email, and before I can read it they are at my desk asking me if I have read said email.

If you schedule a meeting after 4pm on a Friday you should be SHOT IN THE TOE ON FIRST OFFENSE.

Private calls taken in a common space. If it's not a work call and you're not in your own office then get your fat arse up and take it outside. I don't want to listen to you coddle your adult child for 15 minutes explaining step-by-step how to prepare dinner for maw-maw and paw-paw.

Coworkers who don't stay in their lane. Especially if they know absolutely nothing about what they're trying to dip into.

People who want to micromanage.

Elaborate spreadsheets sent without context.

102100050 $52.24
102100070 $29.80 <---- 5% EXPEN PER RON
102200700 $11.99
102200800 $12.99 <---- This is wrong
102200900 $12.99 <---- This is also correct

That doesn't really paint much of a picture there, Tammy.
