Things that irk me...

Why does one of my co-workers have to clip his nails at work? Yes I understand you are in your office but I can hear everything in mine! I don't have a problem with clipping nails, but please don't clip them at work, I find it disgusting.

Sorry for the mini vent but I'm not feeling well this morning. I woke up at 3am feeling very nauseas (and no I'm not pregnant, I'm on my period). Thankfully it went away after downing two Tums but I still don't feel that great. All I had for breakfast was a glass of orange juice because I didn't feel like eating anything.

Re: Things that irk me...

  • ewww who clips their nails at work, that would irk me too!
  • I used to share an office with a guy who clipped his toe nails.. it was the grossest thing ever!

  • That is honestly one of the grossest things ever.  I have a toenail "thing" and I think I've given HH a complex about it.  Whenever I hear him clipping his toenails (he does it in the bathroom, into the toilet...so probably the least gross spot he could do it, but still...) I get all skeeved and tell him that I don`t want him to do it when I can hear it.  But then he`ll be wearing sandals and I`m all "Ohhh honey, your feet look like Shrek!  You need to cut your toenails!!" and he just gives me the look.  Haha he can't win.  Toenails are sooo nasty.  Which is why I make sure mine are always cute and painted, otherwise my own would gross me out too.

  • Nobody here clips their nails, but the coworker who's going to be showing up for the day soon chews gum with her mouth open all day long. It drives me completely insane.
  • ewwwwwwwwwwwwww that's so gross!! I would definitely say something... that was gross me out too much!

    I complained about Adam trimming his toe nails so much, that he now does it outside.  After we had first started dating, I walked into the bathroom and stepped on one of his gross toe nails.  NEVER AGAIN!!!!  Feet are so disgusting.

    This.

    I am also a feet-hater. I would not let Dave (DH) LOOK at my feet much less TOUCH them for years of our dating lives.... 

  • That's gross!  I was working at Bloomingdale's over Christmas and some woman stood at the register cutting her nails while I rang her up...and let them just drop on the floor.  I almost threw up.

    H's toenails gross me out.  I swear he must gnaw those things off with his teeth instead of using clippers.  Ewww!

  • I have a co-worker that does this.  Neither of us are in offices and his cube is a bit away but I always hear him.  AND I have seen him whip out his nail clippers in the middle of a meeting!!!!  It drives me insane, how can anyone possible think this is okay?

    yea us!!!

  • I am so disgusted by this post, and I'm about to eat dinner.  :/  In related news, DH hates feet so much that he won't let me rest my feet on his lap....even if I've just taken a shower or if I'm wearing clean socks.  The only way he'll allow it is if I totally wrap my legs and feet in a blanket.  It's hilarious.

  • I realize I'm late on this discussion but who the hell cuts their toenails at work? (Aside from your awesome coworkers, that is...) That's disgusting. Seriously, people. DO THAT AT HOME!

    My DH has gross toenails, too. He runs so you can only imagine. haha. I tell him it's a sign how much I love him when I touch his feet and allow him to put them in my lap if we're on the couch. Girls' feet don't bother me as much as men's feet since we women are so much better about keeping our toes pretty and looking nice. Men, however - ewwww.
