Office pet peeves

Little things about my coworkers are making me crazy today (well, always, but today more than usual). Instead of stewing about them, I thought I'd start a list of the most annoying habits of coworkers. I will start, but please add to the list. :)

Mine:

- Office neighbors who listen to their voice mail on speaker at full volume

- Coworkers who spray perfume or cologne in their offices, several times a day (gag! hack! wheeze!)

- The girl who always has to move my lunch in the fridge so it gets crammed and smashed in the back, just so her designer pink lunch bag gets a priority shelf location

- The girls who seem to think the printer outside my office door is actually a conference room and stand there and gab for 20 minutes


- Coworkers who can't possibly get up to go talk to a colleague and shout their business down the hallway for the whole world to hear

- The office neighbor who doesn't close her door when she carries on personal (and I do mean personal) phone calls with her boyfriend


(All of these things have happened already today, and it's only 10:30. SIGH. Can I please telecommute??)
...


What are yours?

>>Co-workers who listen to music on their headphones, but WHISTLE and HUM to the music, even when you ask them to stop.<<

Tee hee. I am actually singing along to my music right now, but nobody is here. I don't do that when other people are around. :)
