I have quite a few annoying coworkers, but one stands out above the rest. Do you have annoying coworkers? If so, what do they do that makes them so annoying? Here's mine: 1) She yawns so everyone in the room can hear throughout the day(that is what prompted me to start this). 2) She laughs extremely loud at any and everything, especially if it is something she says. People 4 doors down the hall say they can hear her. 3) She knows everything. When she first moved into this department she started telling us things should be done a certain way, even though we've been doing them another way for years. 4) She is always right. Don't try to tell her she did something wrong because that is impossible! If you have some kind of hard evidence/proof then it is definitely someone else's fault! 5) She kisses ass. She'll sit at her computer a majority of the day buying things online and watching videos, but then when the supervisor asks how the day's been she says she's been busy and bogged down all day. Then she starts a 10 minute conversation about anything with the supervisor. I have to say it has earned her some nice raises so maybe I should try it. 6) She has to make sure everyone knows what she is doing when she does it. If she goes to get paper for the fax machine, she'll slam the ream down onto the stand next to the fax machine. When she is straightening papers at her desk she gets them in her hands and hits them on the desk, turns the papers, hits them onto the desk again (yes we all do this), but then she does it 2-3 more times! 7) Last but not least, she clips her nails at her desk and rubs lotion onto her legs after she puts her foot up onto her desk....did I mention she's in her mid to late 50's? She dresses like she's in her 20's and wears clothing so tight you can see her rolls! I'm going to go throw up now, unfortunately I have to walk by her desk to get there! Do you have an annoying coworker? Are they this bad? Pugs
I don't really have any complaints against my coworkers although I have only been at this position for 3 months. Now in the past, that list is long. Where should I start...
I have/had a co-worker who would ALWAYS complain about the weather. I mean constantly, atleast once per hour. She would tell me like if I had some control over how cold it was outside and I was being evil by keeping it down around the 40s just to bother her. If she felt sick or had a headache she made sure to put her head down and sigh really loudly or make noises to try to get my attention, so that I could ask her what was wrong. But I never did. She was extremely ignorant and immature. Shes like 38 btw. Anytime she would talk back to the boss she thought she was the coolest person around and she would make sure she turned towards us and showed us a mouthful metal. Shes got braces which is also annoying. If you are past 35 and still have braces, you might wanna think about something that isn't going to take as long to work. Considering those teeth are going to remain in your mouth for MAYBE another 5-10 years.
2) check 3) check 3b) she knows everyone (BS!) She even told us that she was the manager for Kat Williams before he became big. This chick has a large pair of brass ones! 4) check, she butted into a conversation and told me to "slow my roll"; then had to back out of what she said when she pulled her fat foot out of her mouth. The conversation was about the girl who gave birth in the bathroom of the school and she jumped in saying that it was on the plane of her daughter’s trip to somewhere (and I read about that story as well). So I showed the article to everyone and got the predictable "My Bad" 6) Check What really makes me mad is that she talks to the other girls around the group about her problems all day. I don’t want to know why your car got reposed last week! Get to stepping you big back bottom gristle lump!
Today is office lunch day, which of course probably deserves another thread for all the annoying quirks on display... We got an email saying the lunch would start at 11:30, so all the fatties were waiting in line 10 minutes before. I wait for them all to clear out and then get in line. Then a couple of the fatties get behind me and start "joking" about how ladies should go first. So, I give in and let these 2 butterhogs ahead of me so they'll shut up. Turns out, they've already been through the line! Damn office fatties....
I have one coworker who is a 40-something liberal, vegitarian, environmentalist type, and that's fine by me. The problem is that she is too f___ing opinionated for her own good. She constantly mentions how she won't go to a certain store because they don't use renewable energy, or that she won't go to KFC because of the way they treat their chickens, or that she spits on Hummers when she sees them (I swear I've heard that one at least a dozen times). To top it off, she has a terrible attitude. For example, if a phone call from a donor doesn't go 100% smoothly, she'll slam the phone down on the hook when she's done and start complaining aloud to the rest of us. It makes me want to punch her in the face.
As a radical left wing leftie, I would also be really irritated by this behavior. She just sounds like she has a nasty personality aside from her politics.
my annoying coworkers sign off personal emails with their names - like I don't know who sent them... like this...
At one engagement, there was a staff member who brown-nosed and would say negative things about other co-workers. The office staff attributed this behavior to low self esteem and youth.
Had that same problem at my last job. All the accounting "girls" were just plain huge. There was one that constant had a loaf of bread at her desk. Never saw any lunch meat or (g-d forbid) vegetables to make a sandwich...just bread. Any way, if pizza was coming in, you had to beat them to the punch or there would be nothing left. They'd load up as much as possible, leaving little behind. Plus, it was a very small kitchen. With 3 of them in there, no one else could get in to eat. BBQ days were just plain disgusting. There would be sauce everywhere. Naturally, they all drank Diet Coke like it was going out of production... Another co-worker was the guy who, no matter what great things you've done with your life, he's done them and better. Every time he did it, I just wanted to smack him.
i wouldn't say i have annoying co-workers... more like strange http://saulcast.com don't believe me? listen for yourself
