What's wrong with not using speakerphone? I almost never use speakerphone.

Anyone have that guy in the their office where you basically don't have to see a show or a movie, since he gives such a thorough plot summation that you have a better grasp of the program than if you actually watched it

Yeah, just spent the last 10 minutes getting the rundown on last nights Lie to Me, which I've never seen nor never care to

We have a new developer and he never unlocks the front door when he gets to the office early. Everyone else unlocks the main door when they get here early. I'm pretty sure he's aware that the door is locked, considering that he has to enter the side door everyday using his passcode. So what's the deal? Too good to unlock the door for your colleagues? He's also the only guy in the office that drinks all the coffee and doesn't make a new batch. It's all minor shit, but he's giving off an inconsiderate vibe, which is deadly around here.

Conference call on speakerphone with your office door open. Bonus if someone else that's close by to them is on that same conference call and they have also opted to use their speakerphone with their door open. Stereo annoyance.

I understand the desire to not want to hold a phone to your ear for an hour. I can even understand separate people not wanting to be in on the same conference call in a shared room. I can't understand why they won't shut their door. They even get this annoying echo during their calls because the sound from one call is projected down the hallway and picked up by the mic of the other person that's on the same call.

SHUT

YOUR

DOOR

My coworker who sits about 3 feet from me listens to music extremely loud. The worst part? He sings. Very badly. It is even worse because I have excellent pitch and I can tell when he gets off key. I've told him this before, "It's not that bad that you sing, man, but oh my god you're fucking off key!"

haha, that reminds me of one of my exes that claimed to have perfect pitch. In reality, that could not be farther from the truth, but she is crazy bitch like that. I'm not saying that you don't have good pitch, you probably do, but in my experience, every single person that has claimed such things were simply lying to themselves. Singing at the office would definitely annoy me.

My office has an older lady who's nice as can be, so it's hard to dislike her, but I avoid her like disease because if she starts talking to me I'll get trapped in a conversation full of boring small talk that goes on for 10 or 20 minutes. I just went to the supply room and turned right around and left when I saw her at the copy machine.

^^^lol, we set up a phone line that only the employees know about that bypasses the secretary and goes straight to a line where you can dial an extension because the secretary talks so fucking much. it's seriously impossible to get to the person you want to talk to within 5 minutes of calling if she answers.

Not at my place of work, but I put a lot of fucking love into making those chicken salad sandwiches, and what do you do when you grab the wrong bag out of the teacher's lounge fridge? Why, eat the contents, of course, because you're a lazy bum mind-numbed by decades of passing out work packets to your "students" to justify your position while their mothers are crack addicts and their fathers are in jail and you're the only hope they have to get out of this god-forsaken town of New Bedford.

No one is impressed or thinks you're a trooper for coming into work sick

Stay sequestered in your office if you insist on coming in when you're hacking up a lung all day

Damn continuous construction.
Couple weeks ago, they had our hallway blocked off so they could knock a giant hole in the wall.
Then, our brand new parking deck failed its inspection and couldn't be reinspected again for another 3 weeks.
Monday it smelled like tar all afternoon. (Impressive considering my office is nowhere near any parking lot or road)
Yesterday the fire alarm was going off for no reason.
Today we have a giant-ass crane blocking one of the roads and lot entrances.

What fun...

The only thing annoying me about my job these days is my fluctuating schedule. That and working Saturdays.

But the money is really good, the job is easy, and it's stress free. So I can't complain.
