More office pet peeves....

It's actually out in front of the office but the people from the office next door just came and parked so it reminded me of this thread.

There is limited parking and EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. they park their car, they park crooked so that at least one wheel is in the space next to theirs. LEARN HOW TO PARK!!!!!

I even took a picture right now.

the "crop duster" ..you know the one ?? that guy who farts walking by your cube

I have a story. We have a guy here in our office who I'll call Pete. Pete brough a whole pallet of wheat grass to work once. He also brought a juicer. Pete made wheat grass juice right there at his desk every morning. One day, Pete decided it would be nice to add some flavor, so he added two HUGE garlic cloves to the juicer. The first couple of minutes after this, people were running out of the area with watering eyes. The next few hours, people were going home with stomach aches. The next few weeks, there was nothing you could do to get the smell of garlic out of your nose. It molecularly bonded to the cubicle fabric.

Pete will never live this down.

This is just one Pete story. He's infamous for this stuff.

There is one woman in my office who insists on talking to you from the next stall if you are in the bathroom at the same time! Drives me crazy!!!!! I mean really, when I am at home, it is next to impossible for me to go to the bathroom without my 14 month old being right there with me. But, I don't care if there are two stalls, do not come in, sit down next to me and attempt to start a conversation!

The other thing that drives me crazy is another woman who is overly descriptive about EVERYTHING!!!!! For example, she was out one day about 3 weeks ago. She comes back the next day, and literally at some point told everyone in the office, "I was sick yesterday. I had diarrhea. It was neon green. Do you think that is normal?" I mean really, come on! I don't care in any capacity when, where or how you crap! Much less what color it is! Nasty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i just thought of one that i forgot earlier...

people who deck out their offices/cubes/whatever as if its a nick-nack museum and/or make their personal space a cluttered sh-- hole. seriously, your collection of fuzzy pens, bobble heads, calendars, vendor toys, 13 photos of your dog, ect. and lack of organization with 47 post-it-notes everywhere, 20 thumb tacked documents and 12 inch high piles of papers/folders makes me want to slap you.

You would loathe my desk...and I mean hate with the white hot intensity of 1,000 suns...I have 5 Transformers, 3 rubber ducks, a sh!tload of stuffed animals, 5 Hot Wheels (including Grave Digger & Airborne Ranger), a slinky, a Mardi Gras mask, a Star Wars fighter...and of course, a ton of pix of my kids and a museum of their artwork.

My desk is surprisingly organized though.


<b> Everything has a place.</b>

correct, and that place is not your work desk.



sorry, but you're right, i would hate your work space. i would probably talk about it behind your back.

OMG I spent five years sitting next to a guy that does all these annoying things you all are listing!!! For example:

Farting & burping - in front of his fan of course & loudly, even while on the phone doing business. I would have to leave my desk for 15 minutes - and if my boss caught me I would tell them exactly why I was unable to go back to my desk!

Super dirty- Been told he does not wash his hand in mens room, leaves a trail of coffee grounds in the kitchen break room and half the water ends up on the counter, his computer n keyboard have a think layer of crud on them even though we get new equiptment regularly. His cubicle wall is covered with food as if he uses it for a backboard and the garbage can is the basketball hoop - SPLAT!

King of TMI - I know everything about this man. From the planning of his vacation to his last colonoscopy . Oh lord, that was awful - I swear he said the word diarreah 10,000 in two days - and why would you feel the need to tell ALL your coworkers that you CRAPPED YOUR PANTS!!!!! And of course I heard every story 10 times cuz he is on speaker phone all day making personal phone calls and telling the same gross stories!!!

The booger king - always sick, always sniffling back boogers into his head - get a tissue. "I just get every bug/cold that goes around. I don't understand" - Really dude? I do! Try wasking your Fing hands!!!!

Oh, how I needed this thread today!

1) When ladies talk on the phone in the bathroom stall when I'm trying to pee. I don't really care if you're on the phone, I'm flushing. I hope it does embarrass you.

2) Listening to the guy who clips his nails at his desk.

3) Listening to the guy who uses an electric razor at his desk.

4) Bimbo who wears 6 inch heels to work that must hurt her feet because because she's barefoot by 2 p.m. every day.

5) When bimbo mentioned above wears her 17 year old daughter's clothes. You are in your mid-fifties. Wearing a shirt that say's "sexy" across your chest is not appropriate office wear.

6) When same bimbo mentioned #4 and #5 wears dresses to work that are appropriate for Senior Prom. We are a casual office. Yay! We can wear jeans, take advantage.

7) When same bimbo mentioned #4, #5, and #6 wears so much perfume I can smell when she's entered the building.

8) When you email me, and then call me two seconds later to tell me you sent an email.

9) Popcorn. Everyday? Really? Are we 11?

10) I purposefully arranged all 3 of my 6 foot long desks into a labyrinth just so he DOESN'T come hover behind me when he needs to speak to me. It costs him 18 extra steps to walk behind my desk to talk. For the love of God (or whomever) why does he do this?

11) Yes, I have boobs. Yes, they are big. I promise you they won't talk back when you are speaking to me and staring at my chest, so, eyes up here buddy.

Or when they list who to contact in their absence. I contact the back up...the back up doesn't know how to do what I need. So I'm stuck waiting for the original person to return from vacation anyway...

Or when you email the listed contact and then get THEIR out of office response, LOL.

OMG this all rolled into one lady.
I dislike having conversations stall to stall, Unless your my child (chatter box) do not talk to me in the bathroom.
She hears me come in and is like "Smiley is that (grunts)YOooU, I can tell by your shoes....grunts some more" I was litterally floored, turned around and walked out...She was chatting me up while taking a dump!:sick:
Same lady also comes to work day after being sick a relays her night.....woke up and had really bad cramps Smiley, Had to rush to the bathroom, really bad diarrhea Smiley...So bad. Whooo it smelled up the place. I think its because I had a big glass of ovaltine before bed, Do you think that could be it....." FFS you do not need to tell me this!! i dont even want to know this about the ppl I live with!
she says 2 yrs until she retires.....i hope they give her a buy out and its sooner...
