At some point in our lives, most of us will be working in a corporate building or government office. I am currently a college student trying out the feel of working in an office setting. For my internship, I am working in an office building and as much as I love helping the public and doing easy tasks, there are a few things that annoy me when working in an office building. I'm sure Nene Leakes would have the same pet peeves as I do if she ever worked. Here are some of the pet peeves I deal with on the daily.
1. Starting at 9 a.m. and sitting at your desk for hours but it's only 9:02.
GiphyChileeee at this point you wonder why you agreed to these hours.
2. When the phone rings and no one in the office wants to answer it so YOU have to.
GiphyAnd then you have to deal with someone yelling about something they can easily fix themselves. You start using the office greeting even on your personal phone.
3. Putting food in the office fridge and someone eats it...
GiphyThere's just certain things you just don't do. You're asking to get slapped (well, after I punch out).
4. That one coworker who INSISTS you guys should “hang out sometime.”
GiphyOh no sis, outside of work, we don't know each other. Especially if I don't want you seeing my Instagram account.
5. When your coworkers you don’t get along with screw everything up and your boss yells at them.
Giphy*Sits in cubicle laughing silently while my coworker is getting blasted and on the verge of being fired*
6. Punching in at 9 a.m. and people are already walking in asking for help.
GiphyJust because I start at 9 a.m. doesn't mean I'm physically ready…please come in at least 10…..or closing.
7. “Where are you going for lunch sis?”
GiphyOH NAHHHH lunch breaks are my own personal time, don't bother me or show me pictures of your cats Susan.
8. “Do you have Instagram or Snapchat?”
GiphyNow they're going to know the real reason why I call out sick.
9. When it's 4:59 p.m. and you're getting ready to leave and someone asks for help.
GiphyNow's your time to run out...
