The guy directly behind me types like a psycho. He literally pounds on his keyboard.
The first day I worked here I thought maybe he was doing it to be funny but nope. Reminds me of Rowlf the Dog from the Muppets but way less cute.

The guy that sits next to me is a angry typer as well. He also eats at his desk and has food-gasms.0 -

Jesus knows Steve. Not sure about Mohammad. You may want to ask him.0 -
She never emails me directly, even if it's a project that I'm working on. She always emails the information I need to my supervisor, who then has to forward it to me.0
-
She talks to herself and slams things around when she is upset Her shaking her head back and forth. "I know, I know, I know." She is answering her own thoughts out loud and does not even know it. OMG every fing day.0

I literally had to ask to relocate my desk because of this guy. Insanely loud typing and talking.
Just a general douche canoe.1 -
She is well past retirement age & hasn't been healthy enough to effectively do her job in 2-3 years! Constantly "out" causing the supervisor to cover & be unavailable for any other needs. And, when she is at work, the supervisor spends multiple days per week with her, so as to "not wear her out". She has missed up to 9 consecutive weeks, causing me & another nurse to have to cancel previously planned & approved time off/vacations!0

Dang, I'm one of those typers. I learned to type on an old 1950's era manual typewriter and actually used to do typing competitions with it. Over time we now have these chicklet style keyboards and I typically go through a keyboard every other year or so. Still trying to get used to these light plastic keyboards. Luckily, I work from home so I was able to find a great keyboard that can stand up to my pounding but still tricky when I'm on conference calls. Regularly get requests to mute. So, on behalf of all the board pounders out there, I apologize, especially if I've recently taken pre-workout! Don't worry, it'll wear off soon I think. lol8

- She has an extremely annoying voice, which I hear constantly because she talks to herself, out loud, all freakin' day;
- She's constantly telling me I didn't give her something (which I know I did), makes a big deal out of it, then never says anything when she finds it.
- Never bothers to look into anything or try to find answers about anything; just asks me! Like it's my job. She's been here long enough to know where to look, but just doesn't bother.

She chomps on kettle chips with her mouth open.1

Co-worker to the right yawns constantly, cracks his knuckles and chews with his mouth open.0

Tell him to post asmr videos on youchoob. The sound of typing makes me tingly.2 -
I have a coworker who babbles to herself in an "outside" voice as she walks the halls and always seems about near a panic attack for something on which she is behind schedule.0

I don't mind that he eats at his desk but the lip smacking and 'MMMMMM"s and "Oh man"s are a bit over the top and sometimes awkward.2 -

Next time this happens just try to remind yourself that people in Ethiopia haven't eaten since like 1984. Before long you'll be making the same noises!4 -

Or just do it right back at him. Just turn your chair to face him and stare him in the eyes while eating your food. No blinking.
A little lizard tongue action on the food intensifies the awkwardness. I've heard.2 -
I love all my coworkers. But I think the loud typing thing is a habit that's hard to break. I had a boss who was constantly breaking his keyboard. My husband does hunt and peck method and it's like he's punching the keyboard.1

They work 20 miles away at the office and I rarely ever hear from them... I hate th... Oh wait, I *kitten* love them because I don't have to talk to anyone but myself working from home.1

because he wont share the blunt and buy pizza0
-
For the record, I have massive hands & it sounds about as subtle as a grizzly bear trying to pick eggs out of a carton when I type. They don't make keyboards in my size... LOL
Regrettably, I would probably be like this Steve guy if I was in your office.0 -
I have 2 that I dislike.
The first is that he is so far up his own *kitten* he thinks he's great at everything and he's the first guy ever to be a dad with the way he talks about his daughter. He also hovers around you if he asks you to do something to make sure you do it and it really puts me off and pisses me off. His humour is childish as well.
The second is that she can be such a *kitten* sometimes with the way she treats people. Swearing, screaming, yelling, throwing things about. Doing it when customers can hear and threatening people with their jobs when they do something wrong that can easily be fixed. I've cried numerous times from the way she's spoken to me when I've forgotten to do something or haven't done it right because she hasn't shown me.1 -

I know what you mean! I work from home, too. I was going to post about hating my co-worker for preparing stinky food in the microwave and then realized I should probably lay off the Cumeric.1 -

severe passive aggressive. drives me effing insane because she thinks I don't know what she's doing.0

My former boss used to make me come into his office and stand over his shoulder and watch him type up e-mails to clients. And sometimes he'd type a sentence he was really proud of, and he'd say, "right? right?" and I was supposed to say, "Oh, yes, that's perfect" and nod a lot as he typed along. Early on, I thought that surely he wanted me there to give him input, but it became clear after the few times that I tried to make suggestions that he did not appreciate that.
He was a hunt and peck typist, too, so it kind of took forever and he made a lot of typos. And if he saw a typo way, way back, he'd just tap the backspace key 8 million times to get to that place, correct his typo, and then re-type everything he'd just deleted.
Then, when he was finally done with his e-mail, he'd re-read it, aloud, using the voice inflection intended, along with hand gestures, sometimes (as if that would translate into the e-mail?) and always find a few places to edit, or he'd re-write something and ask my opinion, and of course I was supposed to say, "Oh, yes, that's much better. I agree." and then he'd re-read that sentence. Aloud.
Forget about the process of opening and re-reading every attachment.
Then, when he was finally satisfied with his work, and before he'd hit "send," he'd ask me, "Is that a weiner?" (Meaning "winner." Funny guy.)
It could take an hour and a half sometimes to type up a 2-paragraph e-mail. It was torture.5
