We have all worked (or are working) in an office with other co-workers, so none of these should be a surprise to you. Individual habits or traits within a close confined environment like an office, are simply the most annoying types of frustration at work. A recent poll by officebroker.com has produced a Top Ten of most annoying habits of co-workers working in offices:
- Borrowing things without asking and then failing to return them
- Taking messages with information missing
- Noisy eating or preparing smelly food such as curry
- Wearing loud ties and silly socks to show how 'zany' they are
- Gestures such as taking fake golf swings, finger pistols or thumbs up
- Moaning in general
- Staring at your colleagues
- Talking endlessly about your pets or your children
- Gossiping
- Wearing too much perfume or aftershave
Come on be honest, how many of these are you guilty of?
