People who call you on teams without asking if it’s a good time to talk first

Saying good morning to anyone takes 2 seconds. You are so important and busy that you don’t have time for that? You sound like a douche.

Jump on the call, and done in 5 minutes, including opening pleasantries.
Maybe it is just my place of work but I have noticed a certain demographic that loves to use the Teams video call, have you noticed any patterns?

When someone tells you in an interview that they don’t “micromanage people” but that is exactly how they manage.
Just own it in the interview and I’ll not have a problem with it. If you say you don’t but you actually do, then you’re just a lying arse douche bag.

People who show up at your desk and tell you "I was taking my break so I thought I'd come by to chat."
What the f*ck? Just because its your break doesn't mean I'm not busy.

You can’t be pleasant to coworkers but you have time to bitch on TD about it.
There you go assuming I was unpleasant towards anybody. I was 100% polite. I just didn’t say good morning.
I’m sorry but you have to be a total self-important snob to be upset because someone didn’t say the magic words good morning.

Do not send me an email then walk to my office to tell me you sent me an email.

You enter a room and ask a question and their response is a sarcastic “good morning!”
That is not even close to being 100% polite. At the very least you can acknowledge somebody when walking into what I assume to be THEIR office (or work space) before dumping work shite on them

When I have to go check on folks to make sure they are doing what they are supposed to be doing, aka my whole job

Actually I was being very polite. I was going to borrow something and I was being courteous by asking their permission before I took it because I wanted to be considerate. Almost anybody else would have just taken it. It wasn’t their office. It was a common space, so you can stop assuming I just barged into somebody’s office.
All I asked was “are you using this?” I was trying to be considerate but got smugness in return.

Smacking, eating out of a metal container with a metal spoon, slurping.
Just generally being unaware, possibly autistic about the noise your making.
Guy I sit near is a psychopath.

Our two office managers spend all morning doing this. With nearly everyone, they act like it is someone they haven't seen in years. "OMG, good morning, how are you?!"
Posted on 11/12/24 at 11:48 am to Undertow
OP is right. I'm there to WORK. I loathe morning pleasantries.
Wanna be pleasant to me? The first words out of your mouth should be, "Here's how we're making money today......".
I'm not kidding.

You sound like an autistic person with poor people skills.

My pet peeve is when I fart and someone insists on walking into my cubicle immediately afterwards.
Give me some space, goddam it!

I was told to remove the “good” and only say “Morning”. Otherwise, I’m assuming the other persons morning is good. I laughed.

My job requires me to work with local government agencies a lot, so my issue is I have a lot of government employees that are needing to find lazy ways to fill their time while also making sure not to put direct answers to specific questions in writing.
