Disgusting/ Inappropriate/Annoying Office Behavior
Unless you're one of the lucky ones to have been laid-off recently, chances are that you're like me, and you're stuck in an office cube for 8+ hours a day conducting menial and repetitive tasks over, and over and over again. And working 8+ hours a day under soul-sucking florescent lights and the humming drone of computer hard drives can make one a little irritable. Especially when your cube mate snorgles. What is snorgling, you ask? Read on, dear viewer, read on. And tell me if you can surpass the horror of the snorgling officemate.
Bringing Your Obnoxious Dog to Work
Okay, I get it… You love your dog but frankly If I wanted some beast sniffing my crotch I’d go to your dad’s house.
Shut off Your Stupid Cell Phone
No one wants to hear your stupid cell phone ring in the robot-version of “Who Let the Dogs Out,” okay?
Just Don't Come to Work
I prefer not to hear you incessantly eject bugary mucus out of your face. Stay at home if you’re sick.
I also don’t appreciate your snorgling. What is snorggling, you ask? Check out definition #5
Eating Other People's Expensive Apples
So at my last job I would bring my own lunch and put it in the fridge in the office kitchen. One day I left my organic, farmer’s market-purchased apple in a brown paper bag in the fridge and when I came to get it, it was gone—someone else ate it! I even saw the core in the trash can to prove it! I was totally livid. From then on out I stopped putting food in the fridge.
Burning Your Popcorn
It may seem trivial, but those who have been cooped up in an office with burnt popcorn smell for 6 hours know what I’m talking about.
The Office taught me you’re never supposed to like anyone you work with.
Close Your Mouth While You Binge
Yes, I can hear you smack on the assorted contents of your siliva-induced Big Mac through my cubicle screen, so go waddle on over to the kitchen and offend someone else while you inhale your lunch.
Don't Talk About Your Kids
‘Cause I don’t give a shit. They have nothing to do with me. Don’t show me pictures— and DON’T bring them in the office. ‘Cause again, you’re the only one who cares.
Don't Invade My Personal Bubble
Like I said before, I work in a 5×7 cubicle. You are not allowed to waddle on in uninvited and hover over my shoulder and judge me for
f*%cking off on Guidespot.
Cover Up Your Snags
Flip-flops are not appropriate footwear for the office. Why is it that the asshole who thinks wearing their grimy flip-flops to work happens to have the scaliest, alien feet ever?
This shit gives me an anxiety attack.
K Mart Heels
Along the same lines of wearing (or not wearing) flip flops, I don’t want to see what we refer to in our office as K Mart heels, the crusty heels with cracks and bloody fissures!
Get one of those Pedi Egg foot files from the infommercials! Yuck!
Stop Asking Me to Donate!
I’m sure your charity is the most important one ever, but you have a pretty good idea how much I make at this job. And it’s not enough to donate to every charity every one of you asks me to donate to.
My old co-worker begged for money for her mission trip every single year. Which she took 2.5 months of vacation time. Which means, not only was I stuck helping get her menial work done while she was gone, but she also wanted money from me. Any time of the year she wasn’t collection for her trip, she didn’t even look at me. Yeah right.

Call a Meeting Just to "Call a Meeting"
…Especially when you know it’s crunch time. By the time everyone has their donuts and bagels and coffees, and bathroom breaks, and is assembled before you, you better have a damn good reason for throwing an agenda in front of their faces other than because it’s in your job description. Just imagine how much work could get done if you’d stop talking about it and actually let people do it!
