Dear Co-Worker,
Please do not clip your nails in the office. 
Hygiene should be performed in the bathroom or in the privacy of your own home.
Sincerely,
Nicole
Anyone else need to address their co-worker?
Re: Dear Co-Worker,
I have a great one. Just a quick backstory, I'm the ONLY female that works for my company, and there are 16 men.
Dear every one of you guys,
Please do not scratch your balls in front of me and then act like you're not being obvious about it. When you sit there and dig and prod, its very obvious that you are doing it. Wait until you are not standing directly in front of me to play with yourself. Its gross.
Sincerely,
Teresa
Nicole, I almost threw up a little. Nail clipping is NASTY. DH has to do it with the bathroom door shut and the fan on so I can't hear because the sound gives me the heebyjeebies (sp?).
People do that on the Metro quite frequently. Like, really, you need to clip your nails during your commute? I can see filing a snag but clipping them? Really?
Dear Co-Worker,
I didn't like you at first but we've found a new level in our work-ship. I'm cool with that. I'm not cool with you eating chips every day and chewing like a cow...scratch that, you chew like a cow no matter what you eat. Do you have a genetic abnormality that makes you smack your lips every time you bite down on something? Secondly, does your wife never call you out on that?
Sincerely,
Angela (the quiet eater who consumes crunchy things in the back room)

Ew. I can't stand listening to people eat (or slurp). I really don't need to share your eating experience with you, so please keep it to yourself. My boss does this and then wonders why I decline lunch with him so often (among other reasons).
I really can't think of anything that annoys me about my coworkers. Our boss is so disgusting that we're all blinded by his flaws.

Dear nasty girl sitting with us in student lounge,
Please put your shoes back on and take your feet off of the table. The people around you do not enjoy inhaling that nasty soggy boot smell, nor do they appreciate your sock sweat contaminating the one table designated for food.
Sincerely,
Lisa

Dear Co-Worker,
I keep my office door closed so I can concentrate. You know this because you had to open it every time you want to walk through it. When you leave, please close it again. Not somewhat closed, or halfway closed, or almost all the way closed.... just close the damn door.
Thank you.
Karen
Dear Co-Worker,
I can some how manage to prioritize everything and get things done when your not sitting right next to me so why you think I can't get it done when you are right next to me I have no idea. Please stop asking me if i've done this yet, i'll get it done by the time it needs to be. Don't panic and stop harassing me about it!!!

I can't stand that, I have one woman on the other side of the building who calls me almost every day with food in her mouth and chomps like a cow. She even stops in the middle of sentences to put more food in her mouth.
Dear co-worker,
Please stop with the personal calls in which you go on and on about things that are way TMI for the workplace. I really don't want to hear what kind of gastrointestinal problems eating fast food causes you.
Thanks,
me
That is just NASTY!!! ew!
Yuck! I'm embarrassed to even call and make medical appointments from my desk, I can't imagine talking about personal things with all of my coworkers around.

I wanna play....even though I'm not at work today....
Dear Co-Worker,
Thank you so much for not lending me your carpet cleaner yesterday. I especially loved how you pretended not to hear me ask 3 other people if they had one I could borrow. Then when I looked them up online you said "OH we use the Lavender cleaner, it smells great"...OH well NOTE TO SELF, thanks for the tip. I'll remember that when I'm up at Traget dropping $100 for something I could have borrowed from you. Oh silly me, you're so selfish and conceited, I don't know why I even expected you to do something nice for someone other than yourself. From now on I will no longer cover for you, drive your ass up to Starbucks and pay for your drink because yo forgot your wallet, or attend your "house parties" when you never attend mine. Oh and how you didn't show up at my bridal shower and then called me afterwards to tell me you wouldn't be able to make it because your shopping took longer than expected, ya thanks. OH and how you didn't come to my work shower because you had "training" at your internship....bull. It's cool...
Have a fabulous day!
Kristina
Dear Co-Workers,
I wish you wouldn't smoke so much. My asthma kicks up this time of year and your smoke on your clothes in this tiny space is making it even harder.
Sorry for your addiction.

MY BLOG!
They do it on the subway here too, but the WORST is people who eat on the train. It's so unsanitary and then the whole car stinks of whatever they're feasting on!
LoL, when I used to ride to ride the Metra, I would hate the people that brought their McDonalds on the train. Not because it's unsanitary, but because McDonalds french fries smell so obnoxiously good (to me). Sitting on the train for 30 minutes smelling that... torture.
Thankfully, it is a federal offense to eat/drink on the metro in DC (if you visit...take note! They don't enforce it too hard, but the metro police have made the news for tackling people for candy bars when they are feeling overzealous.) There is occasionally someone who eats or drinks their Starbucks, but it is actually rare. I can't imagine watching people eat on my ride home, it is already bad enough!

"Hi Honey....how was your day?"...."I got tackled by the metro police for eating a candy bar....".... LOL....
