Few things are more annoying than having a group of people basically "camp out" in front of your cubicle for 20 minutes. Today, there were some people in the office having some dumb meeting. They came out of the meeting room (near my cubicle) and proceeded to have the "well, thanks for coming" talk for 20 minutes right outside of the meeting room door. Not only were they blocking the hallway, but made it next to impossible to carry on any business with their chatter and hovering over everyone nearby. WTF??? How much common sense does it take to realize this and say "hey... let's step back inside the meeting room for a few minutes" or better yet, just keep moving once you exit the meeting room. Shit like this just drives me bonkers because I can never understand why otherwise intelligent people could be so damned stupid and clueless. They might as well start bringing screaming babies into the office with them next time.  |

That's why I love working from home. Peace and solitude.

I work in a small office of about 15 people the office we have is split into two with a conference room and a couple of doors separating the two sides 5 of us on one side and 10 on the other. One of the cube girls on the other side is a loud talker, even if you are talking to her face to face she seems to not realize how loud she is talking. Well almost every day I can hear her and a couple of the other girls talking on the other side of the office through a couple of doors while I sit in my office. I am not talking about just hearing someone talking I can understand exactly what she is saying because she talks so F'ing loud, then throw in the fact that she has one of the most annoying (and loud) laughs you have ever heard. Even if you tell her to quite down it doesn't work. She needs to get hit in the head with a large brick.

Burnt popcorn is worse than loud talkers. My office is right across from the mailroom. It is full of loud people, they don't bother me. The burnt popcorn. Man, that is the worst.

Too many to go through right now...
However, I will say the one that comes to mind right now is the fucks that kill the coffee and don't refill it. It's common for me to have to cups of coffee and have to refill the coffee each time. I saw one douche come in and kill the coffee, and walk away. I was fucking sick of it...I just said, "hey, I'll refill this for you!" but don't know if he heard me, or possibly was ignoring me.
Fucking lazy disrespectful dolts.

That guy in our office is the same guy that starts talking to you while he's on the shitter when you come in to take a leak. He is also the guy that takes the sports section out of the break room to read while he's on the shitter and then puts it back on the table where people eat.  |

I remember this one crazy older lady at one of my former employers who would bring in fish once a week of lunch and microwave it. And yes, she was about 2 spades short of a full deck. |

Fuckers that leave monster pubes on the urinal. While it becomes a mini-game to squirt them into the drain without pissing on the floor, it's still annoying.
And while more humorous than annoying (and also urinal related). At a Best Buy service center I ran, somebody dropped a quarter in the urinal one day. Nobody dared touch it for a month or so.
Until... we hired a new guy & the quarter immediately disappeared. To test the theory this guy removed it, quarters were randomly placed into the urinal - and they were eventually gone... and the theory proved true.

I will add to the fucks that kill the coffee AND forget to kill the burner the coffee pot sits on. The "burnt coffee" smell rivals, if not defeats the burnt popcorn smell. I am not lying when I say we had the fire department come out to the Comm Center because we thought it was on fire. "No fire here guys, just burnt fucking coffee!!"

The building I work at has five stories. For some reason I get infuriated when I see able-bodied people take the elevator DOWN from floors 2 and 3 to the bottom floor...or take the elevator UP to the 2nd floor.
With my immediate team I really don't have any complaints. The newest person there has been for 2 years, so we're kind of like a family - also only 8 of us.

The people who could most benefit from the "one up, two down" rule are those most likely to disregard it.

My office is shared with 65 other people in my Division. Those that leave their trash on my desk, those that don't take out the trash and those that come to just hang out in the office are those that I find the most annoying. Get the fruck out of the Master Chiefs office if you haven't any business in it.

Also, in one of our restrooms we have paper towels and toilet paper stored under the sink. Who are these fucking people who fancy themselves superior to replacing a fucking roll? What's it take...5, 10 seconds max? |
