Highly Annoying Co-Workers

MSN/CareerBuilder had an article recently titled, “10 Habits of Highly Annoying Workers.” I know, for a fact, that none of you would fall under the “Annoying Workers” category - let alone the “Highly Annoying Workers” category. But I thought you might like reading about your co-workers.

As you know, I work from home, so my co-workers are my family and cats. They’re all perfectly charming, even on bad days, so I’m lucky. From what I’ve heard, some co-workers can border on the ridiculous. I’ve heard horror stories about people who snap and pop chewing gum (even while on the telephone), wear their cologne or perfume so strongly that it gives you a headache, and, of course, I’ve heard all about the serial eaters. Somone told me once about a woman who constantly ate at her desk - she had chips, cookies, and crackers stuffed in every available drawer and even kept a little stash of nuts in the file cabinet! Then, she’d complain about the maintenance department “letting” her work area get so crumb-y and messy.

Priceless.

Check out “10 Habits of Highly Annoying Workers” and see if you recognize anyone. For your sake, I hope you don’t!
