Anything you have to put up with almost daily that just drives you nuts?

 

At work, I have people that constantly do things I hate:

-Jab their finger into my computer monitor to point something out. Generally, I dislike it when people touch it as I have to see their finger prints all over it then, but in this case, they're really poking the thing making the colors funky for a second.

-Jab their PEN into my computer monitor. Just like above, but this time they're holding a PEN in their hand and leave marks all over the screen! Come on!

People taking pens/ stapler off my desk; i've actually had to resort to hiding my scissors because of how many times they've been stolen

Also, can't stand it when someone reaches across my desk to get a tissue

Pizza guys are getting worse and worse looking. I guess all the good ones went into porn.

I forgot about that one! My pens go missing all the time!

And the problem with that, for me, is that I tend to get attached to a pen as I often suck on the end of it when I'm concentrating. A couple days ago I hid my pen under the ledge of the cabinet above my desk, and when I came in the next day, all my drawers were open and rifled through because someone had been looking for it...get your own pens!!

I've got three hidden there now as back ups Big Smile

at my work I CANT STAND listening to the awful country music station that my boss plays nonstop. One day a a couple of weeks ago I had to hear Rockin the Beer Gut 5x in one day alone. They only play like 20 songs and they are in constant rotaion so I hear at least every single song 3x each day but Rockin The Beer Gut is absolutely one of the dumbest and most annoying songs ever.

I also cant stand how everyone wants to use my cell phone all the time because they are too cheap to buy their own.

My old boss used to accidentally take my pen every time he left my desk. I had to organize daily black ops extraction missions to retrieve them.

...explaining the difference between shutting down one's notebook and merely closing it.

 

"Oh yea!  I shut down my notebook every night before I go to bed!"

Kenny:  "Via the Start menu I presume?"

"What's the 'START' menu?"

Kenny:  "The button in the lower right..."

"Oh, I never use that, I just close it nightly.  Shut down, ya know?"

Kenny:  /facepalm

you just reminded me of another one of mine; getting calls from our other offices or paged in my office about a computer issue and asking "well did you restart your computer yet?" and being met with "no" everytime; i have dealt with everyone enough for them to know (also have straight up told them) they should reboot before calling me

All ya have to do is assume everyone in the world is more stupid than you and you'll be much less irritated with humanity as a whole because your expectations will be so low that any time someone does something "stupid" you'll just think to yourself : "Well that's about right". 

I more or less expect every person I come in contact with to stick their finger so far up their nose that they pass out.  When they don't I almost wanna give them a treat Stick out tongue

I was doing work on somebody's computer and turned their monitor off when I was done.  The next day she was in (I wasn't) she was convinced I had ruined her computer.  She was out for blood when somebody just hit the 'ON' button on her monitor.  I really wish I would have been here for that.

Men who pee in sit down stalls, grow a pair and use the urinal! 

Similar cowardly gross dudes who don't wash their hands after using the bathroom because they know you are sitting in the stall and can't see their face.

I hate when people are in the stalls talking on the cell phone.  I flush the toilet multiple times just so the person on the other end knows were they are.
