1. Listening to people argue with my co-worker. She works right next to me and deals with people in high-stress situations literally all day. She is the event scheduler for our building and people are constantly miffed because the space they want isn't available, or they got accidentally double-booked, or they want amenities the building doesn't have. It's so painfully awkward to listen to and sometimes I have to go take a walk around the office if someone is being really nasty. I could never do her job, but she loves it and is really good at dealing with difficult people.
2. When someone posts something awkward or offensive on your wall on facebook. The other day a guy I haven't seen since high school made a weird, racist comment on my wall. He was trying to be funny but it was totally inappropriate and it wasn't anything I wanted associated with me. I deleted it and I was praying he wouldn't post something else about the deletion. My Mom, who wouldn't post anything offensive but frequently posts embarrassing TMI-type stuff, will get annoyed if I delete anything she writes and will invariably comment on its absence.
