If you work in an office what are yours?

My number one is people that print stuff and leave it on the copy machine, sometimes never picking it up. WTF, why did you print it in the first place?

I have others too, lol.

My are generally issues with bathroom etiquette. No I don't want to talk to you in there!

If you take the last cup of coffee out of the pot, make another pot! I don't want to stand there waiting for coffee. If I have coffee in my hand already, I can function enough to make the next pot. We're bankers, it's going to be drankin by the end of the day!

People walking in my office when I'm on the phone. There's a reason my door is closed. I can see you dancing in front of my window so if I point to my headset, chances are I'm talking to somebody.

I guess I'll leave it at that for now. :)

I have one of those bosses that is not satisfied when you do something whether it is right or wrong.
There is always a complaint or there is always something you could have done differently.

Yet, he still appreciates the work I do....Does that make sense???

This one really gets me mad, to the point that I did something about it.

Let me preface this by saying it was MANY years ago.

But I was having a problem with people at my work eating my Otter Pop popsicles out of the freezer and after asking people repeatedly not to eat them I took the matter into my own hands. I took a few of the popsicles home and carefully sliced them open and emptied the contents. I then waited until I had to take a wiz and yep you guessed it, I peed in the otter pop rappers. I then put a couple of drops of food coloring in the popsicles, shook it up and used a crimper to seal them back up. I then froze them at home to make sure they looked legit and sure enough they did. Dropped them in the work freezer the next day and to my surprise they were all gone the very next day.:yikes: Now wether they ate the whole thing or just spit it out I have no idea. True story.

You might want to think twice about eating something out of the work fridge that isn't yours. ;)

So way back in the day at Wells Fargo I was managing an in-store branch. We had a teller who was Indian and didn't feel it necessary to use deodorant. Now he rode the bus as close to work and walked the rest of the day. This was not bearable in the summer. And then to top it off, they decide to install bandit-barriers, trapping us in this small fishbowl of a space. We had to have a discussion to "clear the air" so to speak on that one.

That's fucking awesome!


The copy machine really pisses me off! Or when people don't sort through it and grab your stuff. Then I have to re-print because it would take an hour to walk around and ask everyone for it back.

The coffee thing also chaps my ass. Especially when I was the one who made the pot. I get side tracked with phone calls or what ever and by the time I get there it's empty again. I used to bring coffee creamer to the office and it would be gone in a couple of days. So I went to smart and Final and bought a large box if the individual Coffee Mate creamers and put them in my desk. However I shouldn't have to do that.

I hate when people come ask me for advice on things when they can see I'm clearly busy.

Listening to the same 10 lame ass songs on KissFm all day! Kill me!

People using the conference room when I had it reserved.

When people wanna chit chat about their weekend or ask me what I'm doing for the weekend. We're not "friends" what the fuck do you or I care? Cut the bs and leave me alone. lol

People that don't flush the toilet. Come the fuck on people! No wonder so many places have automatic flushing toilets because a simple person can't be entrusted to flush their own piss or shit.

Women that wanna bitch about their kids or personal life. Go get a man to listen to your problems.

When people fuck with the AC or Heat. Leave it alone.

People that bring their own lunch that smells like complete dog shit and stinks up the entire office.



Two months ago I set up a complete home office and I'm on cloud nine. Rarely do I go into the company, mainly to pick up pay checks or when we have some mandatory meeting. I love working from home. Right now I'm sitting in my pajamas, drinking my own coffee, blasting Eazy E with my dog at my feet. I eat better because I cook at home, then use my lunch break time to go to the gym, shower then head out into the field. I used to burn 2 tanks of fuel in my truck a week to drive back and forth, now I burn about 3/4 a tank a week.

How about when people ask you how do something, you give them the answer and then they ask somebody else the same question. I've had it out with a few people about doing that. I tell them they are no longer allowed to ask me questions if they think the answer I give them will not be the correct one.

Oh yea! I call them the cubicle hoppers! You can hear them go ask the others the same questions. Sometimes I can sense them coming so I would leave my desk. Most of the time it's over stupid crap. Like "hey I'm working with a client and no matter what I show them they won't buy". Well take your happy ass to a fucking sales training seminar or pick a new career and leave me out of your shitty problems. ... You'd be surprised how many people over the years have tried to have a "sit down" with me on how they should design their business card.


Here's another:

People trying to set up Mastermind Meetings and then having the audacity to invite me to their motivational pow wow. You want motivation? Walk out to your mail box and see that there's bills in it.

Especially the one on the 57 to the 210 east. And why the fuck would they drop it to 3 lanes right there til Fruit St and then again at Campus.

Almost every river trip costs me $15 - $20 in toll road fees (261 to 241 to the 91) because I can't deal with the 57N and 210E. If you don't leave OC before 2pm on a Friday, pay the toll or hang tight in traffic.

Wait till the 15 toll road opens up, they are saying it can cost as much as $15. I either will leave for the river first thing in the morning or after 7pm. Towing something in traffic is not fun for me, I a paranoid freak thinking dumb shits are going to hit the boat or cut in front of me and slam on the breaks acting like I can stop on a dime...Dumb SHits...

When people show up late to meetings or ask personal questions that have nothing to do with the group. You have a personal issue, question, suggestion or concern? Then set up a fucking one on one meeting and quit wasting my time. Nobody else needs to hear it nor has the time.

....It's typically those who show up late that do this. They already don't respect other people's time because if they did, they wouldn't be late.

How are you feeling today?? Great meeting you and your friends we had a great time hanging out with you.

When the alarm went off at 345 this morning for the gym, all I could think was FML. But in the long run, it was well worth it. We had a great time with everyone and was great getting to know everyone from online...
Already thinking when the next trip will be...

People who don't shit on their own floor! Got some guy who works for one of the government agencies in the building who always comes up to our floor to use the restroom. Seriously about to embarass him and call him out.

Timing. As soon as I walk back into my office from lunch, I look down at my email and one of my customers has his docs ready. Had I read that email thirty seconds earlier, I couldv'e just driven there. Now I'm back in my air conditioned office and don't want to leave again.

How about when people ask you how do something, you give them the answer and then they ask somebody else the same question. I've had it out with a few people about doing that. I tell them they are no longer allowed to ask me questions if they think the answer I give them will not be the correct one.

We have one of those, except they want to argue about the answer.


I work in a cubical environment and my biggest peeve is people who use speaker phone. Second biggest is the guys with no 'indoor voice'.

This is the office we have in our house, Terri works about 10-15 hours a week, so we both have our own desks, she gets the one with the view looking out over the pool/lani and water.

My pet pev is when Terri wears a bikini to work.............................what a bitch, isn't that sexual harassment.

I've got to have a desk to play on my computer.

He's in VA right now...he didn't have the balls to tell me himself. That bitch is gonna have his nuts spoon fed to him when I get there! That was rude! If he said "hey Eli the hotel is booked can I take your room" I would've said "sure no problem" but he made the poor office manager look for a room for me for 5 days and call the hotel 4 times a day since then, including the weekend and when she told me what happened she was almost in tears thinking I was gonna go off.

It took me 5 minutes to find a room in the same hotel. Not to mention if it was booked I wouldn't care and would've found a different hotel. I can't let the partner see my shenanigans so it would've been perfect! ;)

I leave my desk clean and organized every day, and especially when I'm going to be off for a few days. I came back to crap all over my desk! :AngryFinger_7WSKJO:

Wow after reading through this thread I am glad my office/ desk is a one person room in the back of my house. I am glad I work for myself. Although I am only in their for billing and travel plans for appointments.

I couldn't share my office with anybody. :)

Then she should fix her settings to only include the signature on email origination and not replies. It's always the woman's fault!

When you are sitting at your desk eating lunch and someone comes up behind you looking over your shoulder eye F*#king the shit out of that you are eating.
You know they want to try it when they ask "What are you eating, it looks and smells good?"
And I am not talking about an isolated instance.

Just ask me, no need to get so close over my shoulder....Ok my rant is over lol

I hate when people do that.

I use to work with a lady who would ask of she could smell my food. First time I was so dumbfounded I said yes and after that I'd say, "no I don't want your nose that close to what I'm eating".
