Dear annoying co-worker!

One co-worker talks about NOTHING ELSE outside of her husband, kids, grandkids, etc. And she calls them by their name, like you're supposed to know them. I.e. "Johnny did blahblahblah and I told him [insert obvious response]". Soooooooo boring!! And she says/does some weird stuff....yesterday she talked about how she always keeps antibiotics on hand because she buys them from pet stores :noway: total weirdo!0

dude- someone just asked her what the ER doctors said last night *b/c it's so bad she had to go there, but could still come to work yesterday and today* and she's got a severe case of bronchitis. FIJSAFKJDASLKFJDSAJKFKLAJSD;LKFJADSJFDSAJ;JKSD;FJ0 -
I work in a call center...I have a co-worker who would take a personal cell phone call, leave his group (so as not to disrupt his group, I suppose) and stand right in the middle of MY group talking loudly, laughing etc, on his cell phone! :grumble:0

I could go on AND on. This is probably the most annoying place I've ever worked. But... I'll just stay with one coworker.
She thinks that if it's not they way she does things, it's wrong... and she'll tell you that. We work in a "guest service" environment, and she doesn't seem to realize that. She has literally made guests cry before. She has been cussed out, screamed at... and what makes me mad... the bosses NEVER seem to do anything to her. She's like in her 70's. I wished she would just go on and retire already.
Oh... and there's so much more I could say about her... but, this post would never end if I did... so I'll stop here.0 -
mine proceeds to tell me ( multiple times during the week) all about his weekend fishing expeditions and also give me a lap by lap run down on the latest nascar race. I dont fish, and I dont watch nascar... ie I DONT GIVE A F**K!!!!! Shut the H*LL up, leave me alone and get back to work you dumb @zz country bumpkin redneck!!!!
ahhhh. that felt good....0 -
I have a coworker (we share an office away from the rest of our department) who likes to talk to his computer screen. He gets an email and he verbally responds to it before typing it up. He also makes every phone call and listens to every voicemail on speaker phone. We don't have to punch in or anything, just log our hours, so there are days when he comes in at 10, leaves at 11 for lunch, comes back around 12:30, then leaves at 3. If I could get paid for a 40 hour work week while only actually working MAYBE 30, I'd be ecstatic, but I'd be cheating the company out of money. He sends out emails to clients that have blatant spelling and grammatical errors - he'll put in "are" instead of "our."
There are also a lot of ladies in the main office who like to cackle. They stand around their various cubicles and cackle for half an hour. There's one who likes to corner people in the restroom and hold a conversation while you're in the middle of relieving your bladder.
The guy that I didn't let talk to me before ten had the tendency to do his homework on his work computer during work hours and left me to do both of our jobs. Yet I was only part time at the time and had to carry his full time job in addition to my own that could barely be done in 29 hours.
Oh goodness. Gotta reel that in! I'm apparently easily annoyed.

Dear Co-worker:
Please wash your hands after using the restroom.
Thank you.0 -
I"m not dealing with coworkers but have to deal with adult students. One in particular sits next to me in all my classes and she has the worst BO. PLUS her clothes smell like mold. Ever leave your laundry in the wash and forget it for a few days then dry it anyway instead of rewashing it? Thats what she smells like every single day every single class. I scoot over and try to lean away from her and she leans over to me to talk as if I can't hear her. I'll get to class early and sit in another spot and she always sits next to me. If I get up and move she moves to sit near me. Drives me nuts!! I can not stand her smells!! ugh!!!! Everyone says I must be special that she wants to sit near me all the time lol0

I only have one co-worker and he's my boss. He brings me donuts every Friday. I've never had it so good. 0
-
mine talks to his tools and the cars he is working on...oh wait, thats me lol0
-
I've got a complainer. Everything, everything sucks in her world.0

Thank God I work with people that change their clothes and take showers...this might be the first workplace I've been at where nobody has any major hygiene issues. So yay!
The most annoying one of my coworkers is very passive-aggressive and seems to revel in the opportunity of pointing out other people's mistakes. It's almost impossible to pass a call to her even when the customer asks for HER SPECIFICALLY, because she'll list off all these reasons why she doesn't actually need to talk to them. But then she dumps calls off on people left and right and tends to "forget" to be logged into her phone for 15 minutes before her lunch break so that she can go at EXACTLY 11:30. When she finds out somebody f*cked something up, she points it out in front of everyone instead of just e-mailing the person who made the mistake. We get it, you are the super-sleuth, you found an error OMG!!!!!
Whew. That feels good 0 -
joe im there with you! but then im the one they all ask when they have car problems, which happens a lot as we are couriers for a pharmacy. I see my coworkers about an hour a day, it is the most stress free job ever. I even leave my phone in the car so my wife cant call me for that hour. There was one really annoying girl who was really rude, and kinda spastic, but she left !0

Dear co-worker,
I FEEL LIKE PUTING TOOTHPASTE ON MY FIST AND BUST YOU IN THE MOUTH....:mad:
Do not talk to me... my extension is 200. Brush your throat for God sake...better yet...WAITER! ((((whistles- and waives him down))) one scope on the rocks for my friend across the room- and keep em comin!:drinker:
That was too funny!0 -

OH I WISH! My co-worker, that has been working with us since October..who's girlfriend we have all MET, refers to her as "my girlfriend" over and over like she doesn't even have a NAME. But in fairness he does this with EVERYONE he talks about... "My boy did this..." "My girlfriend did this..."0 -
Mine turns my lights off. She thinks it's funny but it's quite annoying and childish:explode:0
-
when my coworker isn't listening to pandora on speakerphone- she's watching movies on her phone...she pretty much NEVER works.0

Dear WAY over paid Executive Assistant/Receptionist:
I know you think you are being sexy, but no one wants to see your breasts coming out of your shirt everyday! And just b/c you can shimmy a skirt on over your @ss, it doesn't mean it fits! And please, please, bend at the knees when you bend over b/c I also don't want to see your underwear when you have to pick something up!!! Sexy is not appropriate for the workplace and what you are wearing isn't sexy anyway...it's just clothes that are 2 or 3 sizes TOO SMALL!
Thank you.0 -
one co-worker wears loud flip flops and she sounds like a clydesdale! oh and for the record were not allowed to wear flip flops. :noway:
So with you on this one. I'm generally pretty easy going but the noise makes me want to scream!!0 -
I am a stay at home mom and can definitely relate to some of these stories when I use to work in an office environment. I know that this can be a painful existence for you guys while you are at work, but I have to say I am sitting here reading your posts and I am dying of laughter. This is great. I get so bored here sometimes and as I am reading these I am painting a vivid picture as if I am standing there with you guys or I myself am in the situation. This post is really funny and I love it. You guys are hilarious with your comments. I probably dont have to do my Insanity workout today, because sitting here laughing so hard. I can feel a six pack coming on!0

I'm a student now, so don't necessarily have coworkers at this point, but there was a girl who sat beside me in EVERY class last semester (thank God she isn't in any this semester), and she grommed her gum like a hippo ALL DAY LONG! I bet you could put a bit in this girl's mouth and she could pull a truck with her jaws! She was an intense gum grommer! And during tests... OMG... you couldn't concentrate for the smacking/gromming. Plus, she didn't brush her teeth (maybe this is why she felt the need for the gum?) :sick: The gum didn't help the smell much and it didn't help the 3 inches of growth on her teeth at all.
Also... I used to work as a data and telecom consultant in a huge office with cubicles. The girl in the cubicle behind me was certifiable. I sometimes found her annoying but mostly amusing. She had OCD, which is an unfortunate disease, and I don't mean to laugh at someone's expense for something they can't help... but one day I took a file to her to take a look at before making a consultation. I hadn't worked there a really long time at that point. I had placed post-it notes in the places that I wanted her to take a look at. (there were maybe 25 post it notes in a huge stack). When I started to hand her the file her eyes got really big and she started breathing heavily. She has a terrible fear of post-it notes. And she works in an office with gazillions of them. That's a brave girl. I simply took the file back and made an executive decision on my own. :happy:0 -

This is hilarious! I can see why you wouldn't appreciate this, but maybe it's why she's WAY over paid??? LOL0 -
1. my coworker has WAY too many pictures of her Dog on her cubicle
2. she whines a lot about how life is hard
3. she drags our office out to fattening resturaunts a lot then complains that she doesn't have any money
On a side note, she's been on extended leave since end of June. None of the office has gone out to lunch since she's been gone and I've lost about 10lbs because I can eat healthier without the constant temptation.0 -
hahahaha, the stinky lady that walks SUPER slow up the stairwell when she is wearing NO deodorant, and it is hot HOT HOT outside!!! or the annoying moron who keeps jacking the temp of the fridge way up so everything freezes only to turn it back down making the lettuce in my salad WILT!! or the annoying "co-worker" who loudly speaks to her kids on the phone all freaking day dropping choice 4 letter words every 30 seconds... yeah warms your freaking heart!!0

I wish mine had pics of her dogs on her cubicle, instead she has pics of the entire local Hockey Team and constantly brags about how many of them she's slept with, and how they all think she's hot (she's really not) and even about how she had a threesome with one of them and her best friend. She also constantly talks about this guy she met on a dating website and how in love they are (they haven't even met) ...among many other guys.0 -

Been there. No one would tell her to go home. Then I went through two months of the same stuff. I have no immune system so I do not appreciate the exposure!0 -
My coworker clips his nails 2-3 times a week. It annoys me so much!0
-
Chews. All day. With her mouth open. Gum, almonds, gum, cereal, gum, salad, pretzels, various fruit, gum.
She and her boss shout across the office. Most of the day.
Twirls her hair and files her nails, completing the 'assistant' cliche and generally making me hate life.0
