    Our office is small but almost all women. I'm always hot and everyone else is freezing - I'll have a fan on while my coworker has blankets and a heater, lol.

    Anyways, they're all nice ladies, but I need to get on the vent train real quick...
    - Woman in the cube behind me is SO noisy. Either she's talking to me, talking to herself, or sneezing/sniffling as loud as humanly possible. Not contagious, she's admitted that it's allergies but won't take her meds!!
    - The burnt popcorn smell in the microwave has lingered for weeks now.
    - Somebody leaves used coffee discs in the coffee maker for days. God only knows what's breeding in there.
    - Other woman yells into the phone. Can hear her from the other side of the office and behind closed doors. Have mentioned this to her multiple times, she laughs and continues to yell into the phone.
    - Shared floor bathroom is a damn war zone, so now I go downstairs.

    I've got several guys in my office that clip their fingernails at work. That damn sound echoing through the office drives me insane!!! Thank God it's Friday!

    Raise your hand if you think it's DISGUSTING to clip your nails at your desk. I certainly do, but several of the people in my office apparently did not get this memo. Gross...

    Oh, and we're including a cover sheet with all TPS reports now. Did you get the memo?

    Wait.... what?!?!? Clipping FINGERNAILS?!?!?! I would puke.

    And now, I am sitting here listening to the woman next to me eat, what has to be, the biggest apple of all-time, because it's been going on for a while, now.

    If it makes you feel any better.. now someone's taping up a box that seems to be the size of Jupiter's ball sack. I think the entire roll of packaging tape is doomed.
    Happy. Monday.

    Oh, the one uppers. They are the best. I work with one other woman in my office now and she is the most miserable, unhappy person I have ever met in my life. She literally growls at people, and she smells bad. I need a new job. . .

    I work with one older woman who is the Debbie Downer of the office. One Monday morning last summer, one of the girls in the office was saying to another girl how beautiful the weather was over the weekend and how she had caught some rays, etc. Immediately, this woman comes over (was not involved in the conversation at all, up to this point) and starts talking about skin cancer...

    hahahaha I have a similar story to this too--
    My 2 (pretty cool) coworkers were in an elevator last week with 1 other woman we work with,but not closely. We were talking about what we were going to have for lunch (exciting right?)- This other woman chimes in and goes, "I had to put my cat down on thursday"..
    The doors to the elevator opened and the 3 of us walked out.. hahaha I felt terrible, but it was like.. WHAT?!
