Annoying things at work?

[pyonir]

What do you find annoying about your workplace, or those that work around you?


I usually just try to keep to myself, and not much bothers me; but whistling in a quiet office atmosphere is so damn annoying!

It seriously drives me to the brink of insanity. Thank goodness for my headphones...

Not getting paid according to my responsibilities...

[ThaGrandCow]

people that post their annoyances on an internet message board instead of getting up the nerve to tell people that they are annoying and could they please stop

I hate when we run out of towels (I work at a hotel) and the manager acts like it is no big deal when he is not the one that has to deal with the customers.

The guy across the aisle is all ways on the phone trying to sell real estate or fighting with his soon to be ex-wife.

BTW, we work for a automotive company.

I do tell them. eventually. I give them the benefit of the doubt, but if it continues, they'll hear about it.

What annoys me is people who complain that it takes SOOOOOOO long for their e-mails to clear their mailbox when they send them and then when I try to find out why, it's because the e-mail had a 40MB Powerpoint presentation attached to it...and it happens all the time!

Lazy students who don't pay attention or don't do their homework or come to class late, or always seem to have to go to the bathroom or have to go to the nurse for the boo-boo they received 3 days ago, but are only now realizing it needs a band-aid, or....

Sounds like you work at the same hotel as me.

If 95% of the people you check in have no common sense, then yes, we do work at the same hotel.

Bosses, co-workers... hell, everything about work annoys me except the getting paid part.

Getting fired today kinda bothered me. All I did was take 2 days vacation. I was fired for taking 2 days vacation without authorization. I'm the one that authorizes all the vacations!!!!!!!!! I had it coming, and have 3 days left, which I lose, because they don't pay outstanding vacation if they terminate you.
I see litigation in my future.
