In this thread we complain about co-workers

[APhi Sailorgirl]

Ok apparently one of the other interns that i have to share an office with (there are four interns in this one small office) feels the need to constantly be on his cell phone with his "buddies." Seriously I do not want to hear about the party you're planning, who you were out with last night, etc.

Have some courtesy to the other three of us and get up, take your cell, and go outside and talk on the phone.

It's even more fun when he starts cussing to whoever he's on the phone with.

Just one more week of this freaking internship.

Hide his phone when he goes to the bathroom.

I don't have any coworkers.

Another intern at the station showed up to work in a tube top, a skirt, and streetwalker boots. I kid you not. I wanted to punch her in the ovary.

Well I can't complain about any of my co-workers cuz they don't bother me. It's the freakin other service providers I have to work with who piss me off. I am sick of them trying to get me in on their agenda to do unethical things towards my clients (that's another long post though). Then I just had one other one call me and say "since you are his Social Worker I told him you would bring him to and from his day treatment program everyday". Ummm, no, I will not, I am not a car service idiot!!! I think it is just Friday and it has been a long week and I am irritated. I am looking forward to the 7:05 PM Yankee game I am going to tonight

Check this:

I am working on a huge presentation for our California clients. This chick goes and says she'll just use my presentation when I'm done for her project.

When the Managing Director comes around this lazy snot says "We have been working on it". There is no we. Little snatch.

Make sure you put it somewhere she can't find it. I am in an evil mood today

Seriously considering that since he's been on it all friggin day. I mean this thing is almost over and he's done like no work, what a bunch of crap.

Plus, he and his homies are throwing some party tomorrow and they're just realizing that maybe they should get like soda and food. HELLO????

Thank god I will hopefully never see these people again.

I have my own office but because of the nature of the project I'm working on I am required to work in the lab w/ many of my co-workers who are working on the same project.

One of my co-workers brings in a radio and headphones so she can listen to music at work. Okay by me except she SINGS ALOUD constantly. She also says "Papa Johns!" everytime the phone rings. When she isn't listening to the radio she randomly blurts out "cuckoo for cocoa puffs" or "blah blah blah thats all folks" or other terrible impressions.

Two of my other co-workers chew bubble gum VERY loudly as well as blows bubbles and cracks her gum. They also chew food with their mouths open.

They drive me INSANE. Thank God my other co-workers aren't nearly as bad or unprofessional. I guess I just get so frustrated with them because I know I have a quiet office I could be sitting in but I'm forced to be in the same room as these immature "adults."

I work with a 60 year old bitch, Ella, that is bitter and hates life.

I have 2 that I can't stand.

Co-worker #1 is nosey. He likes to walk by people's offices and look at their computer screens or goes into people's offices when they're on lunch break and rummage through their stuff. His excuse is always, "Oh, they had some software in their office that I need to borrow" so he gets away with it.

Co-worker #2 is annoying. Every 3 hours, he walks past everyone's offices and bangs on their door and screams, "Wake up people! You're all too quiet in here! Just making sure you're still awake!!!!" Argh.

well my coworkers are other servers at the restaurant i work at...

we pretty much get along- however... there is one guy in particular who drives us all crazy... he is the biggest hypocrite ever.... he's a supervisor on two nights a week so he thinks he can boss everyone around when he's a server... one of the nights he was supervising- we were cashing out- and he stands up from the chair he was sitting in- walks over to another table- then yells at me that the chair should be pushed in- i almost punched him in the face- thennnn

last night- i had 4 tables and i had food coming out and drinks to get- i'm effing busy dude! and i saw that food had come out of front line- so i looked at the ticket and saw that he was up so i told him- and he asked me to tray him up and i was like- well i don't really have time- and he's like "IT'LL ONLY TAKE YOU 5 SECONDS!" freaks out at me- and then walks away- my friends just gave me this pity look and started laughing

there are so many instances- he's such a nightmare- and he's really only like this to the girls- he's such a chauvanist... we used to do poker tournaments and he told my best friend and i that we weren't "allowed" to play with the boys anymore b/c we were bad... as i recall ash and i BOTH stayed in way longer than he did....

grrrr....

I have one coworker who used to be AA, but was promoted to the next level. Good for her! However, she's still "in charge" of birthdays, but it's hit or miss if she remembers (for some it's cake/balloons, others it's nada). She seems to have her own schedule, we never know what time she's going to be in. She also has no inhibitions about discussing her personal life...loudly (credit card problems, miscarriages, etc) and she knows enough to be dangerous (but thinks she knows everything) but not enough at times (it's especially worrisome since a mistake can cost money - we're in financial services).

Well, first we have the trainwreck. It's a really bad situation, she's one of those people who just starts talking to you. It doesn't seem to matter if you're listening or not, she just continues talking and the subject matter is extremely sad. So far I've gathered that she's 50 something, has 4 or 5 kids who range from late 20's to 16 by two different fathers, has been close to declaring bancruptcy, is currently drivng a car on loan from her oldest son, and dates some of the biggest losers on earth who she finds on online dating sites. I feel horrible for her, really. However, she became a lot harder to feel sorry for once we discovered her love for running to the boss to backstab.

Next there's the instigator. I'm sure you all know people like this, they go around talking trash about everyone in a way that's obviously trying to provoke you into saying nastier things. Clearly has her own agenda going on.

We also have the antagonist. She has set herself up as the sworn enemy of the instigator and created waring factions on our team.

Then there's the freak. I mentioned him on another thread. Long story short, he's WAY to into violence, gore and can be found constantly chuckling over the latest Darwin Awards.

Primerica boy. Has another job going on, just doing this til he gets the other thing going enough to not need additional income. I have learned to NOT complain about cashflow in front of him lest I get recruited into his latest scheme.

The Perv. That would be my supervisor. Do you think it's appropriate for your boss to mention he has the libido of a bull and ask to see your tattoo? Me neither.


Sorry this was so long. I just really, really hate my job sometimes.

I love the job, hate the co-workers.

And you shouldn't be sorry. I could write a book about my co-workers and their unproffesional behavior.
