People who don't carry their weight on joint projects

People who drag their feet when they walk; that sound irritates the hell out of me

People you hire who turn out to be on the highest rung of the ineptitude ladder

People who think professional attire consist of jeans and a tie

People who have to be told to do something over and over again and then do the opposite

People who leave eraser shavings on their desk...that shit is nasty as all hell.

yeah. First she was calling in sick all the time, so she had to tell everyone she was pregnant and had an abortion scheduled. Then afterwards, she didn't settle down like for at least 6 months, and in the meantime I had to announce my pregnancy, since I was beginning to show Our boss had to put us in separate offices (!!), she fell into a depression and was warned twice for her behaviour. Unfortunately the other office had the farting humming guy in it, but at least the hormonal ciggie-coffee girl was out of my sight

In no particular order:

• People who comment on what you're eating at lunch: calories, sugar, etc...
• People who ask me EVERYday how I can walk in "those heels", even though I've been there for 11 years and I always wear heels!
• People who make no attempt to hide their prejudices about the kids
• Copy machine hogs
• People who complain about the job all the time. (Damn, you KNOW what it's like to be a teacher! )

Someone who's in a position higher than mine who won't stop bragging about how they know every

O C D.

LEAVE ME OUT OF YOUR OBSESSIONS!

People who are constantly late, every month, turning in their monthly reports. It's not like it's a surprise when the month end or that the reports are due. Especially when it prevents me from finishing my work.

Incompetence and poor time managers.

Blatant ass kissers.

Micro-managers.

When people yell/talk to you across the room or from their office instead of calling, emailing, or walking over.

People who take shit off your desk without asking (I *lose* 2-3 pens/week), or leave their shit on your desk, or look through papers on your desk that do not pertain to them.

i left my last place of employment because I had a micro manager head up my section. it was unbearable, and took time away from what I was paid to do

i hate lazy ppl and when i am expected to pick up their slack and they pile more work on to me. i already left my last job so physically and mentally exhausted and i see others barely doing anything

The people around me tend to talk as loudly as possible on the phone about their personal business.

Most of them can't decide which side of the hall to walk on and walk at a snail's pace or in groups of three wide.

Popcorn eaters. I hate the smell of it in the office. We've got a few of them.

Gossip. Drama. Retards. Liars. Stankness (inner and/or outer). Laziness. General unnecessary bullshit! PS....new job going well....so far. I smell drama ahead but I'm going to strive for positivity. I've got too much to do to be broke again over other people's dumb shit behaviors. Plus I don't have to be "on time", I can arrive anywhere between 9-9:30, I will have insurance and vacation in 6 months, I don't have to dress professional, I don't have to deal with a bunch of people everyday. Only negative so far is my body is sore as hell. So far people are relating well to me, which is good!!

what kind of job do you have now?

BklynBabe said:

Still animals, just surgery/shelter instead of regular private practice.

if it's with the aspca on the upper east side, it's an awesome place

Micro-Management is an issue for me currently. Grrr!

Lawd, where do I start...

I think the gossips irritate me the most, followed by the whiners...I mean, damn, if it's that bad then quit already.

Then you have the directors who can't prioritize, calling a whole staff meeting about the damn dress code when they could very well take the 2 hooker wannabees into their office for a private meeting. In the meantime, big errors are being made with important paperwork on a daily basis and they have yet to set up a proper training schedule...

Rude ass coworkers who don't have THEIR shit together but are first to get on your case, even though you work harder than them. Bitch, all you do is fold clothes after the customers leave and flirt with the passerbys, and don't think I didn't see you in ole boy's car suckin' his dick before you came into work.

One co-worker called my phone going off on me about not being a work "Where the fuck are you? You're supposed to be here at 3:00........oops you're supposed to be here at 4:30......my bad"

then try to hide from me when I walked in

Managers or team leaders who pass you over to promote their buddy How is that I've been here for 3 months and I'm still in this area but your musty armpit havin' friend been here for 2 weeks and they're already got a promotion?

I transferred from one department for the same reason. I'm a self starter that doesn't need much supervision, but there was this one manager who just hovers over and harasses everybody. Micro managers that can't distinguish between people who need extra supervision and those who don't irk the hell outta me.

Nightmare bosses...

One who let you know when she needed to eat because she turned into a total bitch. Heavily sighing and her tone would get snappy. She would even snap her fingers at me like if I was a trained dog or something.

She was a diabetic, and she wanted perfection from us... but couldn't deliver the same herself. She had no life, so she expected you to come in early and leave late daily just as she did.

She bitched about her personal affairs like her period, her health, her stupid issues about her old cat.

Seriously... TMI... really.

I had to let her know to stop dumping on me. I was not her support system for her lack of fulfillment in her personal life.

This type of person will suck all of your compassion right outta you and turn you into stone cold uncaring bitch. I quit and never looked back.

When worked the Prescriptives makeup counter there was a woman who worked next to me for Origins. She wouldn't quit with trynna tell me about Jesus and how homosexuality is wrong.

I warned her.

She did not quit her bullshit.

I reported her.

Good for you! That is not right. Keep your personal thoughts at the door. So unprofessional!

My auntie was a psychologiest and was forever telling her patients about Jesus, well, until they reported her. Then she applied to theology school but was rejected on the basis that she was overzealous.

The fact that they're living breathing human beings pretty much covers all the bases for me.
