Re: Irritating office yambags
I'm about to ask for my cube to be moved because of the guy on the other side of the wall. He's a program manager and well respected, but he's got to be the most annoying man on the planet.
First of all, you got the voice. It's just this whiny, bitchy, nasally voice. On top of that he's very loud. But the thing that really gets me: constantly talks to himself. Or rather, talks to his email. "awww c'mon guys!" Not talking to anyone. "What the hell are they doooing?!" Even just when he sits down at his desk: "ok, let's see here.. hmm..ok." Laughs at data he's reading or whatever. Sighs a lot. It's just clear he wants everyone around him to know he's angry, or delighted, or whatever. Oh.. one last thing. Chews gum like an f'ing cow. Same with carrots. ugghhh. I can't fathom who married him, or who hangs out with him. If it weren't for my iPod, I'd have lost it by now.

If someone is in earshot, he feels the need to mumble his next activity, no matter how mundane. Eg: While getting up from desk to make a call in a another room, he'll mumble almost inaudibly an to no one in particular....."Gotta go in other room...make a quick call..." While reaching for a knife in the kitchen....."jus grabbin' this knife...." Going upstairs for whatever...."gotta go upstairs for a ...*trails off into mumble*... Dude, STFU and stop narrating yourself. No one cares. -----My father-in-law does this incessantly as well. Drives me nuts.

Re: Irritating office yambags
i used to work with a girl who had to be the most annoying person ever. and the annoying things she did made the normally, not annoying things, annoying.
she sang carpenters song all the time, and ver loudly, over whatever was playing on the radio. she refused to answer the phones, even if the rest of us (2 of us) were on the phone, and she would be able to see this. she couldn't just give you a simple yes or no answer. she often times answered you in french or some other really stupid way. she would go through a roll of toilet paper a day. which i never understood. she would talk about how she was on the atkins diet. (she was skinny anyways, and most likely bulemic sp?) eat all the meat off of half the pizza, which was for everyone, then eat like 2 bags of popcorn later. anytime she was asked to do something that was part of her job, she'd throw a mini fit. there were a lot of other things, but i can't recall them right now.

Home for Chinese New Year. Parking incident happened 2 days before start of New Year. After incident, he got into an argument with his sister and then LOCKED HIMSELF IN HIS ROOM FOR 5 DAYS to protest, surely ruining New Year for everyone involved. After return, he first tells us story. At least 3 times, BTW. After another week, he tells us he's taken his sister out of his will. He's very self-absorbed, so it's kind of normal that he gives us too much info on a daily basis. I swear to Spaghetti Monster.
