.....who is just unbelieveably annoying? I do. She works in advertising for our company and very good at what she does, to the point where the annoying aspects about her are ignored by higher-ups. The main annoying aspect is probably that she's one of those people who talks for hours on end about nothing, although the fact she's a gossip and seemingly has no consideration for anyone else rank up there, as well.

As part of her lunch break today, she just finalized a (roughly) 30-minute conversation with a bookkeeper that primarily revolved around her flipping through a Meijer's ad and essentially reading it out loud with her opinion on prices of toys and if she'd get them for one of her sons for Christmas. My urge to kill was about at 95 percent by the time she went back to her area.

Just a meaningless rant. Ignore if you want or share tales of that person in your office you wish would be involved in a Final Destination-esque accident.

I have a lady at work who seems to think I care about her horses. I hear every story about them. The reception has realized it annoys me and now will call my phone to save me.

Yes. Stupid. Annoying Laugh. Embarasses herself with her stupidity. Its like being forced to watch a train wreck.

I forgot to mention she is a hypocondriac (horrible spelling I know). She is always limping or complaining about her back.

I used to have someone similar to keebler's annoyance but I got transferred out of that area.

in addition to the horses and constant illnesses her daughter was pretty much the town whore and had slept with most of the boys in her class, she was 14. I got to hear about that from her and several co-workers whose sons were the boys.

she was a trainwreck.

My boss rambles aimlessly all the time. Another guy thinks he has to say Hi! everytime I pass him in the hallway, which is about 20x a day. There's a woman who knows everything you would ever need to know about anything, just ask her. That's about it, so yea, I have 3.

I have several:

1. The Hypochondriac Kid. I have a kid (25 year old single) who reports to me. Super talented but constantly has some medical issue he's dealing with. He also love to "one-up" on everyone. For example if you say you got 4 inches of snow on your driveway, he has 8. Or if you say your dong is 6 inches he says he has....well you get the picture!
2. The Belcher. Got a guy who sits in our our daily production meeting who belches and slurps his coffee non-stop. I enjoy watching the people who sit next to him squirm!
3. Sweet Cheeks. Lady in the office next to me who is so sickeningly sweet all the time I'm afraid I'm going to develop contact diabetes.
4. The Whiner. Single gay guy who reports to me that whines about everything. It's too noisy, too dusty, too crowded, too hot, too cold. Not that being gay makes him a whiner but you get the picture!
5. The Watcher. Have a gal in our book finishing department who thinks it's her job to make note of when everyone punches in or punches out. There are times when I want to punch her.
6. The "That's My Chair" Lady. Have a gal who thinks the chair and work station are her personal property and takes it personally when someone else sits there. She's on layoff at the moment and called me last week to make sure we haven't moved her chair. I explained that it's not HER CHAIR. She almost cried.

Make sure you don't take the chair away from her. You saw what happened over a stapler on Office Space.

all of them

I can't wait to be self-employed one day.

That chair lady just might go postal over taking her chair... I suggest you rethink that one over and over before you consider doing it.

All of my moderating staff.

As for my real co-workers, I am dealing with one of our offshore developers who doesn't seem to know the difference between his ass and a hole in the ground. A project that was passed on to him to develop has been developed almost entirely by me.

Still dealing with this 'eh?

I work in an "office" with about 6 other people.....so, in a way I'm lucky, because the margin for error is so slim. AND there's so few of us that if someone was being "that person", someone would definitely say something. haha....so, we get along pretty well.

In an office of 25 women and 5 men, there are quite a few I can't stand but the horse whisperer stands out the most worth writing about.

There is a slightly annoying chick in the purchasing department-but she is freaking hot so I don't mind.

I'm always paranoid that I might fall into the "annoying co-worker" category ... hopefully nobody i work with is posting on here!

My office is pretty good. There is this one woman who is obsessed with being a mom. She had the baby almost a year ago, but he's all she talks about.

It got to the point where I essentially told him to piss off and that he was no longer needed on the project.

New grandmothers are worse.

Don't scare me like that!

I don't have an annoying co-worker.

Everyone I work with sure does though!

Just do what I do when it comes to annoying co-workers. Invite them over for dinner and then eat them. Make sure to use Frank's Red Hot though.

I've had some that have annoyed me but thankfully annoying usually goes hand and hand with terrible work ethic.

The worst was a guy just fired. When he wanted to focus, he was a very solid, quick worker. But he talk constantly that he should be making 10 dollars an hour (mind you, this is restaurant, and not a fancy one at that). He would also boast he was the best worker on staff. Well after refusing direction from myself, the other assistant manager and the store manager, he finally met his end on Friday.

I can't tell if he just doesn't understand that it takes hard work to get places in life, or if he just chooses to ignore that fact.

Oh well, not my problem anymore.

Ladies, do you have that really creepy, pervy older guy (and by older I mean someone who is at least in their mid forties, married with kids) who just makes you feel slimey when you talk with them?
