My pet peeve at work... I guess it's the people who come into my office to just chat... and chat... and chat... and even when I start doing the subtle "I'm going to type now so you get the hint to leave" thing, they still stay.
People sometimes walk around in bare feet - I hate that. Others talk on the phone really loudly (sometimes speakerphone) and have their office door open. Arrrgh.
When my coworkers talk on their speakerphone to eachother.....and their office/cube is right next to eachother !
When I'm eating at my desk & people can clearly see my sandwhich in front of me & still come up to me to ask me to do something. Seriously, it's my friggin lunch break ! If I see someone eating, I just go back to my desk and send them an e-mail as to not disturb them!

When we have a meeting and the boss tells us how he wants something done. Certain people blatantly ignore him (even though it's HIS company) and continue doing it their way. A few weeks later, he'll tell them again and they act like the NEVER heard that before in their life and it's a FANTASTIC idea!!! Stupid b!tches!
My guys use a back line and if I'm on it helping one and another wants to talk to me, they'll call on the customer line instead. How about waiting 5 minutes and trying back again. I can only help one of you at a time anyway!! Let's play nice with the other children shall we?

I hate that I have to have a space heater and wear turtle neck inside the office when is 90 degrees outside, just because people in this building think this is a morge.

I second this !
I have my space heater going every.single.day. It's awful in the summer when I wear long sleeves to work but have to run out during lunch for an errand.

Re: Pet peeves at work

We have a chain smoker who coughs loogies into his garbage can. I literally gag every time he does it.

Pretty much EVERYTHING at work annoys me, lol. (I guess I need a new job?)
