Ew...for hours?? Making that sound once is plenty for me, but how does one just sit there and suck on their teeth for hours???
@2PeasinaPod: I DONT FREAKING KNOW!! hahhaa. It's almost like something is stuck in there and they just keep slurping their dang gums until it comes loose. OMG.
Um yeah....my supervisor pulls his keys out of his pocket and like will clean his ear with a key. I try not to gag and it drives me nuts...uhh.uuhhh makes me wanna gag thinking about it!
There is one guy that sits by me that will make/receive multliple personal phone calls on his cell every day. Instead of getting up and going to an empty area of the office, he'll sit at his desk and talk on the phone about non-work related things. Oh, and he's really annoying to begin with so this doesn't help at all... haha
I don't think it would be rude to say to them" Do you need some floss?" in a quiet voice that others cannot overhear.
Sometimes people are honestly not aware that the noises they make are audible to others.
This is the type of habit that will go on forever if not interrupted.
There is a guy I work with who takes an hour long long in a 4 hour shift an hour into the shift. He will also take 20 minute breaks a couple times a night so he ends up working for about 30 minutes and is paid for the whole time. His family constantly comes in and his kids run around screaming and throwing fits.
Oh and pretty much anyone with kids does that. We had a Wii set up for kids in one room to keep them occupied because my work is understanding of kids but one employees kids broke all but one remote so they fought for months before that same employees kids broke the rest of the Wii. I can't do my job because SOMEONE'S kids are always sitting in my chair at my desk because mommy sits right next to me.
The ones the do control their kids to an extent don't let them be 2 feet away from them so they are usually piles around my work area bitching and whining and making me want to bring back the days of rulers on the knuckles or bust out Delores Umbridge's special quill and make them write a 50,000 word essay on the importance of parenting.
I'm so sick of everyone's kids running around getting in my way screaming and crying when they don't get their way or because they are bored.
HIRE A F-ING BABYSITTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hell my work offers daycare but most of these people "don't trust them" even though they know these people and hang out with them outside of work. "My precious babies need to stay with me."
Oh and a few of these children are teenagers. They can handle being without their mommies for a few hours while you do your goddamn job.
This makes me never want kids. These are the worst children ever...
I hate the person who fills the office freezer with 43,857 Lean Cuisines leaving no room for anybody else's food.
My supervisor is a CHRONIC COMPLAINER! Everything in her life is dramatic and she feels the need to tell ANYONE who will listen ALL of her problems!!
I sit in the cubicle across from her. So I hear the same story about her "horrible" dates/weekends/trips/whatever OVER AND OVER AND OVER again!!! She talks to me about other employees that she supervises and NO DOUBT talks to them about me. She bitches about our administrator CONSTANTLY! She even complains that our administrator asks her to do things when she is on facebook!
She makes 12k more per year than I do and has significantly less work to do... I HONESTLY.DO.NOT.CARE what gripes she has. DO YOUR EFFING JOB!!
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh I CANT STAND PEOPLE!!
@Corilee13: WTF!! How does your agency even..do any work?
@sailor: even worse is the person that never throws their shit out and you open the fridge one day and are knocked over by smell/mold!!
@vanilla frosting: I used to sit in a situation like that. I would always think, if you took the amount of energy that you put into complaining and did something about your "horrible" life, you would have solved the issue by now.
And as for the boss with the keyring/qtip deal going on...I have no words. GROSS.
@soyjoy222:OH they don't which is why I do it all. At home. During my time off. Alone. By my self. GOD I HATE THESE PEOPLE!!!
omg i have so many ppl that are annoying here i guess it gets like that everywhere lol
my boss has crocks that flip and flop every time she walks, and she walks around ALL DAY LONG, i dont even think she does work at all because she is too busy making sure we dont breath
my coworker sprays this nasty body spray all the time and she puts so much that i choke, even my office manager told her not to spray it cause it stinks and she still does
the human resouces guy walks around picking his teeth with the corners of what ever paper he has in his hand, its to disgusting.
I was just thinking about coming to the Bee to vent too! Great timing!
My boss has been wearing dirty clothes all week and is currently clipping his nails and letting the debris fly freely...
@bridget.sutter: ewwww lol yea i have a coworker who smells like hamper as my mom would say i hate when he gets in the elevator when i do
@bridget.sutter: The guy who used to sit next to me would clip his nails. Just the sound of the clippers made me shudder!!! Dirty clothes?? Ew!
I, myself, couldn't say something. Maybe put some dental floss at his desk with a little note without saying your name?
Dear god. I know all of these stories are true, I just can't get over them. We have someone that clips nails during staff meeting and lets the nail clippings go into her PURSE.
Why? Why?!?!?!?!? Work is NOT HOME.
@soyjoy222: That is so weird.... I forgot to put on my mascara once so I did it at my desk in my closed office and I felt like I was doing something wrong. Nail clipping? During a meeting?!
@Aure: YES! In front of over 20 people. And noone EVER says ANYTHING. Why is this accepted?
I work in a building where I move around and different people sit next to me every hour. Some people cough a lot, sneaze without covering their mouths, sniff, move around, jiggle with change in their pockets, type TOO loud and hard on their keyboards....and I work in a place where we are not aloud to talk, zero zip zilch talking. We all listen to personal media players, but if I can hear you over my audiobook, AAACKKK!!! Oh yeah, and some people don't use deoderant, or wear WAY too much perfume...very offensive to my nose...
@FEFE215: Ha, the flip flopping crocs reminds me of a guy at my old job. He was really tall and somewhat broad, and he'd always wear these leather flip flops that would make really loud flippy floppy noises every time he'd walk down the hall. People started calling him Flippopotamus. Kind of mean, but also hilarious.
Another guy who sat next to me would CONSTANTLY be crunching on something. Usually it was ice, but sometimes chips or other crunchy food. I couldn't stand it. He would also take at least three personal calls every day from his wife, who was always having some crisis or another. So annoying.
@Bubu82: Would you listen and spy on the wife crisis? I love that stuff. Some people fight on the office phone over the most stupid crap...like letting the chicken for dinner thaw on the counter.
Ugh my parents both do the teeth sucking thing. Drives me crazy. I just go and find them some floss because they know how annoying the noise is :)
I used to work with someone who wold use her HAIR as floss. HAIR! So disguisting. I would gag every time I saw her do this. She would pull out a strand and just sit there flossing away like it was a real piece of floss.
My old job used to have this older woman with a serious body odor problem. Like wretched. I know part of it was the medication that she was on, but she also had an incontinence issue. I mean pissy smelling cubicle and all. someone finally had to speak to her, it got better, but it was never "normal" smelling. One time she tried to trade out her seat for another one, umm yeah nobody wanted to trade with her. Yuck...
At the same job my one of my bosses was a hoarder. Like pigsty cubicle that I had to help him clean, cause he could never find anything. No matter how much I helpped it never stayed organized. Yeah.. that job had some characters man.
Then at my last job you had the women decked out in jewels (real) and $1K suits leaving the restrooms without washing their hands. Nice. ANd my co-workers would laugh at me cause I always tried to get to cafeteria early to avoid crowds cause we had mostly buffet style service. Sorry, I don't trust my food around a bunch of pissy pawed females.
@bklynbridetobe: oh my god ew. Not washing hands? WTF. Maybe they literally thought their sh*t didn't stink...
@Ms. Martian: HAIR!? HAIR?!?!?!?!?!? ack!!
I know how you feel. See my recent post about my annoying coworker: http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/need-to-vent-my-coworker-eats-so-loudly
@acingthelace: LOL I remember this, I commented on it. I would freak out and not be able to deal with that!!
@acingthelace:I have this same problem. I can't STAND the sounds people make when eating. Actually, any mouth noise grosses me out, including the sound of people kissing (fortunately, I don't notice it when I'm kissing someone, thank god). My mom is the WORST. She eats really fast, and her chewing is like, super aggressive. It sounds like rocks being crushed in there.
Something you might find interesting is this article on misophonia. I think I have a touch of this.
Yikes....... I don't know how you ladies put up with all of that!
The only "wierd" one I have, is that a guy I used to work with always ate an apple during the morning coffee break. However, everytime he took a bite of the apple he would then shake the apple so the juice would fly everywhere.....after EVERY bite. The first time he did this I didn't say anything, I was just like "WTF"????, but after the second day (when I got some juice from the apple in my eye) I asked him what the deal was. His response was "he didn't like the taste of the juice from the apple, only the apple".
I actually got along really well with the guy so we were able to joke about it. He eventually went outside everday to eat his apple because I started putting on a raincoat when he got out his apple from his lunchbox.
Oh, there is one in my office. Let's see...
clipping nails at her desk?.... check!
sneezing so loudly the whole office can hear it?... check!
sighing loudly all day?... check!
blowing nose loudly?... check!
clearing her throat as loud as she can?... check!
coughing without covering her mouth?... check!
warming up rotten fish for lunch and leaving stench in the kitchen for hours?... check!
putting an entire chicken wing in her mouth and visibly spitting the bones back out on her plate at the lunch table?... check
doing the same with grapes and grape seeds?... check!
not lifting her feet when she walks?... check!
private calls on her cell phone all day?... check!
calling in sick several times a month because she is "feeling tired" or has "post nasal drip"?... check!
sending a group email around to inform everybody that she has diarrhea?... check
repeating what others said in a meeting and trying to make it look like her original thought?... check!
blaming her allergies but never bothering to find out what she is allergic to?... check
Reason #1254782 that I LOVE working from home every day!
BUT, at my last job, I worked with someone who just had chronic colds ALL THE TIME and would just sit and hock up loogies all day. DISGUSTING.
@.twist.: Yeah its so disgusting. Like he will do it AS he is talking to me. Ugh its so nasty. Like I said, I try not to gag! Gives me creeped out chills just thinking about it! YUK!!!
@Bubu82: OH MY GOD I THINK I HAVE THAT, I"m not even kidding. Sometimes I get a hot rage inside when I hear people with their dang gum cracking/chewing and eating. OMG!!!
Maybe we can all have our own office where we are just.quiet.

Does anyone sit near someone at work that has a habit that makes you nuts?
Recently the person behind me has started sucking their teeth while they eat and for HOURS afterwords. Someday I am going to start screaming and never freaking stop. Go to the bathroom and use friggin' dental floss. It would be so rude for me to say something, I know, but one day it might just come out. "Do you need some floss? Because I am ready to pull my freaking hair out if I hear you suck your mouth one.more.time."
STOP IT WITH YOUR D**N TEETH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
End rant. OMG.
