Easy. It is the sumbitches that copy 20 people on email that has nothing do with 19 of them....and they mark it as "important."

The new guy that doesn't follow the tradition of bringing in donuts his first week.

Talk too much
Works too hard
Makes work his home

Not just the office but life in general... That person that you have a "hey how you doing?" .. That becomes a 10 min autobiography ... That you have tried hinting several times that it's time to move on, but somewhere you made a encouraging jester and that person just kept talking, but then at the finality...makes it seem like you have kept them and they are late for something. Im like..." I wanted to end this a long time ago.. It's not my fault" but they have already hung up or walked away

I hate the ones that feel like they need to make sure they say goodbye real loud if someone is leaving early just to make sure everyone sees that someone left early. Mind your own business if someone is leaving early.

On the other side of the same coin, I had one at my last job who made a big deal in the Teams with my supervisor in it about "where am I" when I was 15 minutes late to work. There was nothing going on in the office, I was literally just going to be sitting at my desk staring at the wall.

Besides toxic work environments, I just ask, to get along as colleagues, that my coworkers just find some form of mutual interest to talk with me about. There's nothing more painful than hearing a long-winded "chit chat" story about something I don't give a crap about.

The ones who post on message boards all day.

I've worked with a few Karen types who would write down and report any wrongdoings by other employees

We have one of these. She literally keeps a log with people's initials by each entry. We found it in her desk looking for a file several years ago. She has never done anything with this log other than gripe and bitch to this other girl who's too nice to tell her to beat it. This other girl then tells us later what she says about everybody. I think she just keeps this log of 'transgressions' for personal satisfaction.
