Remember - they're being rude to you by doing this, so for you to stand up, look them in the face and say "Excuse me, I'm trying to work here." would be ok.
God bless.

I swear it is as if some people go grocery shopping before they come in every other day. Bring what you plan on eating THAT day and leave the rest at home for tomorrow. I mean why does there need to be 2-3 gallons of half and half in the fridge at all times?

Oh yeah! Boggles the mind.
Have even heard them doing that in the restrooms in department stores, Kohls, etc.
God bless.

I would, but I don't want to work with them.
Where the devil is management that they let them get away with this???
God bless.

Have you told them, "Uhhh, excuse me. I'm a little busy here and need some private time."
I sure would.
God bless.

No kidding, a woman here will do her grocery shopping during her lunch break and put all her refrigerated bags in the fridge and nobody else has space for a thing!

Unfortunately, yes! It is so disgusting. I don't want my "business" broadcast to other people's friends and family. It never fails...in our building, the restroom has five stalls. You can be in the end stall with all others being empty and cell phone person will and take the stall RIGHT NEXT TO YOU and chat away like there's nothing out of the ordinary!!

(2)suffering from another person's incompetence
(3)being blamed for another person's incompetence
(4)being yelled at by an unprofessional hr director because of another person's incompetence
1-4 describes my last two days at work. i have been yelled at repeatedly for something that i was in no way whatsoever associated with. have any of you ever had to go to hr about hr? that's not fun. normally, i wouldn't care about any of this. i would just laugh it off and tell the hr lady where she can go. but, i am in the process of trying to land a very sizable promotion with this company, and i can't exactly tell her how i really feel at this point in time. just wait though, the opportunity will arise, and i will seize that opportunity like horace carped the diem.

You wouldn't if you ever had an office with a thick wooden door and a big window. Cubicles are temporary help.

Lies still set me of quick still...real quick.
The people that have taken it upon themselves to bring me to god...and make my life miserable until I do. It's actually to the point I am starting to get a good chuckle out of that though. You should see some of the stuff I get in the mail =P

It also irks me when my co-worker uses the printers in my office to print out paperwork and lets the tray sit empty of paper for two days in the midst of a print job or runs the color printer out of the ink and waits for me to replace the cartridge. It is a network printer! Just because it is near my desk does not mean I am the IT go to person! I am not even IT!

Or when they just walk on up to the counter when I haven't called them....I'll send ya right back to wait in line until I call you. There's a reason we call you when we're ready...we might havea large amount of cash in our handa that we're sorting out or counting or I might be finishing a transaction for an MSR... Just be patient and I promisse we will get to you. If you're on your phone, I'm not helping you until you hang up, we have a lobby if you need to be on the phone, so get out of line and go in there.....whew this makes me feel good =]

Things that annoy me: Incompetent supervisors (plenty here) People who sit in the stall next to me when there are plenty of empty stalls People who talk loudly on personal calls...take it outside! People who refuse to knock before entering my office People who want to ask work related questions on my lunch break...don't you see me eating!
