What annoyed you today at work?

[kilted]

One of laydees at work has very unpleasant perfume on today. Not sure which one but it's 'orrible.

It was wafting around yesterday as well.

 

Can't say anything without causing gross offence.

 

Hopefully it's a small bottle.

Nowt worse especially in a place where you are confined and can't escape it. 2 of them in here that wear horrendous stuff, come across to my desk for information about on-going contracts and unfortunately I can't tell them to sod off!

People, employees who know they are taking the P1$$ but just push until you have to take them in the office to remind them that there is a stack of CV's on my desk.. keep playing games and there will only be one outcome!

 

 No wonder this country is on its Knees.

In the same situation, I replied...

 

"if the meeting is important/urgent, it can be scheduled around other items during today, if necessary leaving a member of staff to take calls, if the meeting is not important or urgent, it can be fitted in tomorrow, thanks"

The card machine programme deciding it wanted to do an update in the middle of a card transaction.. really?! At least it only took a couple of minutes but I still had to force log off and then sign back on

[StevesTruck]

To be fair, the main thing that's ****ed me off at work today has been myself.

 

TFI Friday tomorrow.

[Hyphons]

Coming out the back door to find a massive scratch on my front bumper, obviously done today, thankfully the worst rubbed off with a cloth and the last bits should polish out, but still, not happy

....false fire alarm overnight killed the aircon power! So the office is sweltering today as the aircon tries to catch up.

One of the ladies in the office ( a very nice lady whom I like) is wearing some very cheap very leaky headphones which are blaring out a rather tinny rendition of Sydney Devine's greatest hits

[Sammycarp]

People holding meetings in a corridor, who then fail to get out of the way when I try to use the corridor to travel between different parts of the office

Leaving my diary with 2 hrs worth of survey info in it on a wall... an hours drive from the office.. and having to go back and find it to do me design work... dumbass.... i thought my colleague had lobbed it into the boot of my car....

[vigyaz]

Colleagues not informing me of work done on the machine, neither writing anything in the report book causing issues with the machine running later on and me running round like a headless chicken finding a non existent fault!

[Aspman]

Hot.

 

Very hot.

 

Nice days are ****e days in the office

[BO60BYS]
