Irritating office yambags

27,
I just got put on a month long project with two women that seem to be competing for the most horrific breath in the world.
If I fail to post for a few days, assume that I'm dead.

Do they both ever look over your shoulders and bombard you with halitosis from both sides?

Mmmmm...

I work with a guy who routinely mispronounces words and it drives me insane. I know this doesn't seem like a big deal, but it's probably the most irritating thing I've ever encountered in the workplace.

Examples:

Says Dee-ZEM-ber instead of December
Says ACK-a-ru-al (splitting into four syllables) instead of accrual
Will always ask for my John Hitchcock when he needs a signature
We have a printer that makes a lot of noise that he calls Chew-bookah (Chewbacca)

It's the little things that drive me nuts.

I have a co-worker who does similar stuff;
he simply ENUNCIATES each syllable on selected words,
or adds the "T" sound at the end of a word after a brief pause.

For example: "you will need to Re-Boo ... t your machine"
"We can purge the da ... ta by doing a cascading delee .... te"
It's just a split second but most annoying.

I used to work with a woman from Arkansas who'd say, "I just need your John Henry."

LOL what the hell... A fat female co-worker of mine from Missouri says the EXACT same thing. God people in the south are stupid.

You need more real drama in your life.

When you actually sit there and count to 72 it's just ridiculous. Then factor in that it is every day, without fail, a little after 10:00 a.m.





ilya,

I absolutely do not.

PS - Are you in Boston or NY now?

Followed by a heaping bowl of cheerios around 11:30, full of spoon-clankling goodness.

so I think you should just tell them to knock it off.

Not really an option.
To put things in perspective, the glopper-clipper TOOK HIS SISTER OUT OF HIS WILL last week because she yelled at him for parking in her spot the week before.

Also, it's not really my place to tell someone they're gross.

You're in his will? Do you get some benefit from him thinking that you like his behavior?

27, sometimes it's mature and fun to be passive-aggressive.

I swear the next day I bring in a thing of yogurt and glop it 300 times staring at him the whole time. Even when he starts saying "Ohhh, I get it. OK. I'll try to be quiet now" after the 158th glop (believe me, it will take a while), keep glopping and staring until finished then throw it away and don't say anything to him.

Let us know how it goes. Bonus points if you can coordinate this with multiple people in his vicinity. A blitzkrieg of glopping, if you will.
