Employees complain about co-workers This is hysterical - my personal fav: "Employee's body is magnetic and keeps deactivating my magnetic access card. "

That made me laugh out loud. Now the people I work with think I'm insane.

copy - Think you've heard some strange complaints from employees about their co-workers? A recent survey of more than 2,600 hiring managers by CareerBuilder highlighted some of the oddest complaints about others in the office.
They include:
Employee is too suntanned. Employee has big hair. Employee eats all the good cookies. Employee is so polite, it's infuriating. Employee suspected co-worker was a pimp. Employee is trying to poison me. Employee's body is magnetic and keeps deactivating my magnetic access card. Employee is personally responsible for a federally mandated tax increase. Employee was annoyed the company did not provide a place for naps during break time. Employee only wears slippers or socks at work. Employee's aura is wrong. Employee smells like road ramps. Employee breathes too loudly. Employee wants to check a co-worker for ticks. Employee wore pajamas to work. Employee has bells on her shoes and it's not the holidays Co-worker reminded the employee too much of Bambi. Employee spends too much time caring for stray cats around the building. A male employee keeps using the ladies' room because the men's room is not as tidy.
The survey was conducted online by Harris Interactive among 2,667 hiring managers and human resources professionals.and my personal favorite - bad spelling.

They "won't" change the toilet paper when the roll is gone. How hard is it to just change it.

I used to work with a man that would call the guy in the next officer using his speaker phone. It was like dualing conversations - you'd hear it twice.

How about ones that have an outside voice inside all the time, and then when you attempt to talk a bit louder so your customer can hear you they get irritated and start talking louder as if their customer couldn't hear them screaming to begin with.
