Annoying things people do at work... vent away!
We have our internal auditors in our office this week. One girl is on the heavier side, and insists on running down the hall ALL THE TIME! Hm hello, what can be THAT important that requires you to run?! So, whenever she passes by, the floor shakes and and makes pounding noises, which I hate.

LOL! Jackie, your two were too funny.
I hate it when people talk really loud. I work in a lab, which means that in general, everything you do doesn't require you to speak all that much, your basically working on your stuff. I've got two guys down the hall that talk at the top of their lungs about absolutely nothing. Sometimes my inner librarian comes out and I'm like, "Shuuuuuuush!" We've got the radio going, that's all you need, stop talking about your facebook status!
How about heating up stinky food (i.e., fish) at lunch! No offense, I love fish, but I know it stinks up the entire office so I don't bring it in people!
Ok, I can't be the only one w/ annoying coworkers... spill it girls!

I've got a couple.
1. when people call you on speaker phone and then when you pick it up and start talking they slam the receiver in you ear. HATE that.
2. Co-workers standing behind you as close as they can to see what you are doing, when its none of their business. (hello personal bubble)
3. Some ripes a piece of paper or file out of your hand before youre finished with it.
4. Co-work tells you how to do your job, but they can't seem to figure out their own.
I could go on and on but I'll stop here. Great post Jackie. I needed to vent. Thanks!
Ugh!! I have some:
1. People who mess up the copy machine and then just walk away - I mean c'mon try and at least unjamb the thing...
2. The endless meetings that accomplish nothing....we have a meeting to discuss what we're going to meet about....
3. Co-workers who constantly whine about their lives but yet do nothing to change it....
I could go on all day.....
I'm normally not this bitter....
1. Hovering. Stay out of my personal space, or I will remove you from it.
2. People who try to start a conversation with you when you are obviously engrossed in actual WORK.
I'm guilty of bringing fishy tilapia to work
But I totally hate when people have hour long conversations about personal things on the phone and let everyone hear everything.. c'mon lady, stop talking about sending your kids to rehab!
