Gripes
January 30, 2008 at 8:46 am | In everyday frustrations | 74 Comments- Conference calls where you don’t shut your office door (I don’t need to listen to you talk to the help desk again.)
- Low talkers (what did you say!? I cannot hear you.)
- Printing documents but leaving them in the printer pick up for days on end (until I finally recycle them out of annoyance)
- Rambling voice mails (just get to the point already)
- Cubicles
- Filing (any kind)
- People who drop by unannounced and expect me to drop everything to serve them
- Lower case emails at work
- Flakes (Show up or at least call/email to give a sad sack of an excuse.)
- Voice mails where the caller forgets to leave a call back number
- Voice mails where the caller says their number so fast you have to hit repeat 5 times to piece it together
- Loud talkers (I’m in a cubicle remember?)
- Leaving the break room kitchen sponge soaking wet in the sink (Just, ew.)
- Not washing your hands after using the restroom (At least pretend to wash them by dipping them in the water when someone else is in the public restroom with you. Gah!)
- Wearing so much perfume/cologne that I can always tell where you have been moments (hours?) before (I don’t like choking on your scent when I enter the elevator.)
What are your workplace gripes?
