Do you work in an office, then we feel your pain. The diversity in an office can sometimes make it a wonderful environment to create and achieve. Though sometimes the diversity can make it hellish and unbearable for mankind. Here are the top 10 worst types of office workers.
10. The Loiterer – The office worker who walks into your office or cubicle at least 3 times a day with no agenda or piece of conversation. They just slowly stroll in and watch. Your initial uncomfortable reaction is “what’s up?”, which their response is “nothing, just seeing what you’re doing.”
And like that, they’re gone.
9. The Snacker – The coworker who eats all day. The constant sound of chewing as they intake fruit, crackers, and candy. Never journey too close to their desk. The odor from their unwashed Tupperware collecting from their bottom drawer can sometimes be overwhelming.
8. The Toy Collector – The is the person who never really could let go of their childhood. Their desk looks like a daycare only the toys are not to be touched. They can be recognized by their Monday morning accusations of “did you touch my Stormtroopers?”
7. The Singer – The worker in your office who signs loudly to every song in their itunes. No matter if it’s AC/DC or Kelly Clarkson, they almost know all the words and they’re going to let you know it.
6. The Worthless Kiss Ass - The one person in your office who can’t formulate their own opinion or original idea so they become a parasite to office synergy and feed off it to maintain a paycheck larger than yours. They also really like what you wore to work today.
5. The Toucher - The worker who can’t ask, talk, or relay information without touching. Usually it’s a light touch to the arm or shoulder, followed by a very soft and creepy voice. Shivers ensue.
4. Loud Phone Talker - Every aspect of their lives are showered upon you as you hear each conversation they have. Baby talk to their girlfriend or wife, plans for their weekend or issues with their bank statments. You are hearing it all. Added bonus is the use of the speakerphone.
3. The Stinky Guy – You can’t always identify the smell, but it’s usually offensive. How many office Christmas parties do you have to keep giving them soap until they get it?
2. The Gossiper – The reason you clock out and go home is you don’t care enough about these people to make them a permanent fixture in your lives. So why would you want insight on their dirty laundry. If they’re not sleeping with us, then we don’t want to hear about it.
1. The Boss - Usually by no fault of their own, we hate bosses. Nothing personal. You’re usually great people but we walk a little taller when you’re at a conference or taking a personal day. It’s like your parents being away for the weekend but we’re not old enough to buy our own beer.
