I "think" there is nothing more "annoying" than a "coworker" who uses "air quotes" multiple times in a sentance "for" words that "don't" even merit the "use" of "air" quotes.

Drives me "insane."

It is a fact that Obama says that he can offer universal health care for all without a tax increase.

This claim is not also the truth.

People who use the water in the water cooler all the time but who don't change the bottle.


People who don't refill the copy machine with paper or when they do, they just put enough paper iin it to get their copies. When I do it, I fill it up to the max and check to see if other trays can use more.


People who don't refill the plastic silverware in the breakroom. I AM the ONLY one who does.

I try not to get annoyed because it makes for a very long day. Just keep in my office space and keep my radio at a decent volume.

Woman with the mustache has a really horky cough that occasionally makes me gag. And when she sneezes, even if I'm a couple cubicles away, I always think I MUST have snot on me.

Sorry, gotta add one more. The drama queen who has to tell anyone who will listen (and usually who would rather not) how badly her mother-in-law treats her, how awful little Johnny's teacher is, what an inconsiderate slob her husband is, how loud her neighbors are, what a jerk her boss is (I didn't say it wasn't true.......just annoying). You get the picture?!?!?! And when she isn't telling you or some other coworker who happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time, she's on the phone telling someone else!

How about the co-worker who has to tell his supervisor every single thing he does all day long, looking for a pat on the back? Sadly, I am in the office between this co-worker and his supervisor. . .all day long he trots past my door looking to justify his existence with his supervisor. What a suck up!
