re: What's the biggest A-hole move in an office setting?

Having a discussion with a fellow coworker about a small issue, and he/she decides they want to put you on full blast about it and cc all the managers, bosses, etc. All when it could have easily been just a one on one conversation and resolved there.
ETA:
And the kicker about this move, is it's all about making themselves appear to look better.

Pissing in the toilet, not lifting the seat when there is a urinal right there.

When those little people with "interior offices" turn the AC to 76 because "its cold in here" when its 100 degrees outside and you could cook a egg on the window to my office with a view.

Had a Regional guy that would come in to visit, once a quarter usually.
Dude would always steal pieces of my gum, not 1 at a time, he would take 3 or 4 pieces. Then chew it with his mouth open while speaking to me. He also had fake teeth.
I secretly wished for his blood clots to act up while flying.

Just happened last week. Microwaved fish. Then tossed the container in a common area.

The coworker who is inconvenienced at the idea of having to take customer or client calls, send emails or perform actual work-related, paid-time activities as opposed to spending their entire day on personal calls at an incredibly elevated decibel level with parents, family and coaches about travel ball issues for their child.
From travel arrangements, hotel arrangements, car rental arrangements, glamour shots team photo arrangements to fundraiser arrangements to parents of players bickering amongst each other. Forcing you to hear about it all against your will while knowingly ignoring important work. So much so that when the inconvenience does arrive that requires an interruption in this daytime soap opera, Dynasty-bullshite-type of everyday drama, you can hear the annoyance and disdain in their voice.
Drives me crazy knowing that a colleague is not providing quality service while at the same time subjecting me to hearing everything under the sun they are doing with their time that’s got nothing to do with how we are being paid to spend our time.

I was in a training a while back and we were all working on a project. Guy near us decides he wants to listen to music. But he just cranks up his tunes with no headphones. Who in their right mind thinks it's okay to do that.
Also, on the Donut issue, screw the guy who brings a vegetable tray. Nobody wants that shite. And if donuts are there past 10, free game. I don't care if I had one, I'm taking more.

Email crap load of people and not specify who exactly needs to do something
Email crap load of people and specify one person to do something when should have just emailed them.
Email crap load of people at 11pm or later with a project you have finished so everyone think you are working late when you never even work when you should be working.
Being on a project team and only bringing up problems and not solutions especially at the last minute binging up things you should have brought up weeks ago.

There always seems to be at least one or two cropdusters in each office. Nothing like the smell of fresh fermentation when you’re trying to do your job!

Just because you get to hang out in the job site operations trailer, it doesn’t mean that you actually work in an office.

Burning popcorn or heating up fish in the break room.

THIS.
There's a certain demographic that take a freaking bath and brush their teeth after using the restroom. I'm ok with that but clean up the freakin mess. Don't leave water all over the countertop and floor. Any when you wash your nasty lunch dish in the sink make sure to clean up all the chunks of food left behind. People are slobs and yo Momma doesn't work here.

Bringing donuts to the office but not bringing a healthy option for people who don’t eat like toddlers.
Do you bring other more exciting options for people who don't eat like Vegan, yoga instructors?
They left you with a healthy option - not eating the donuts.

People who leave their food in the fridge for weeks and the smell starts to contaminate everyone else's food.
