Anybody else here ever want to reach across the office and slap the E36 M3 out of any of their coworkers? I do.

Yuppers. I've even started 2 threads in the last few months because I wanted to whine loudly to you all.

If this forum didn't already take away enough productive time from my day I would write a very, very long rant about this....

However, I'll keep it short and sweet today.

This may be the only thing that stops me from ripping my PC off the wall and throwing it at him today! haha

Not too much any more, for hte most part I keep my Sennheiser's on at work. Even if I'm not listening to anything.........it keeps the noise down and people think I'm listening to something so they leave me alone for the most part.

Glad we could help.

If it makes you feel better, I work with a fantastic team for a decent company. We still get on each others nerves. I have had times when felt like yelling at people. I know I have annoyed them too.l

Absolutely. I have coworkrs that talk on the phone so loud they don't need the fricking phone. Then the females get personal calls and talk really really low and all you hear is mumblemumble mumble. This same one has talked the half day after lunch on the phone.

Haha, I can relate to that. The guy I am talking about is on the phone about 25% of the day, in the same small office as me, and talks like he is sitting front row at a Nascar race trying to communicate with somebody in the 30th row...

One of the main reasons I'm happy about freelancing. I spent 19 years working in the most toxic environment imaginable, where the union protected people who spent most of the day on the phone, or poking their noses into other people's business.

One of the biggest advantages of not working is not having co workers.

I have been planning on going back into business for myself, I sold my business a couple of years ago and regret it A LOT. So hopefully before long my new venture will be up and running!

This man speaks the truth. I was happiest when I was drawing unemployment.

I butted heads hard with a new co worker today. I will end him.

I work in the meat dept. You shouldn't berkeley with someone who has access to knives and has the moniker "Crazy Mike." Stress comes from the resistance of the urge to stab these people.

fact of life co-workers are gonna irritate ya. on purpose or not, there's enough static in the workplace that I don't need it anymore.

almost 5 months on the new job now. every place has their own brand of bs, same thing only the names have changed. if it gets too bad (combined w/ all the other bs) i may just walk. I smile just thinkin' about it

oh and, those who care the least win

Just ordered two anoyatrons, an evil tron, and a phantom key logger... this is going to be fun!

About 2-3 weeks ago, I wasn't sure I could even take it any longer working with him. I have let it go for the most part...but he still annoys the hell out of me from time to time. I do my best to ignore him in general, but he makes it hard sometimes.... haha

I do back hand one of my co-workers on a regular basis. But that is just the slapping game.
