If you are presently working, chances are, you will have colleagues working with you in the same company, if not same department. Do you face situations where some particular behaviors from these colleagues irritate you? For my case, I have a colleague who just loves to make her presence felt in the office by talking and laughing loudly, even while on the phone. Then, another colleague who loves to snack while working and it is rather annoying whenever I received product prototypes or reports with his oily finger prints on them. I would like to hear from you about your "nasty" colleagues, if you have any.

I hate colleagues who feel like they are already close friends with them when it is pretty obvious that they are not. They feel like I owe something to them. Gosh, it really annoys me. I also don't like suck-up colleagues because it just proves that they can't climb the corporate ladder just by skill alone. Another kind of behavior that annoys me is the complete disregard of someone's space which is very much like the behavior I first described.

Hi lealuvy2j, thanks for your input. Yes, I guess this happens everywhere. If the offending party is a colleague, you may want to choose to avoid any kind of contact with him or her. I wonder what kind of situation we are in if the intolerable behaviors come from your immediate superior? Hmm... food for thought.
