19 Stories About Co-Workers That Get Rid Of Anyone

The Job Site Search Center SuperJob.ru conducted a survey with 2,000 people to see which habits bother the most in the work environment. Smoking ranked first (12% of people are bothered by the absence of smokers and the smell of cigarettes). Hypocrisy and intrigue were mentioned by 5% of respondents. Laziness and idleness were also at 5%; arrogance and obesity were indicated by 4% of respondents, the same percentage as lying and lack of commitment.

In addition, other unpleasant habits were cited, such as disorder, distraction and laughter or very loud voice.

O awesome.club understands that, in the coexistence in the work environment, there must be respect, mainly in the same department. The good news of the study is that 17% of those surveyed did not feel uncomfortable with their peers. Apparently, many people are happy and work with pleasant professionals. It’s either that or they’re really calm people and don’t bother with anything.

Many people have a colleague at work like this: “Can I have a cigarette?” is a common phrase for them. In general, this person is either trying to quit smoking or has simply forgotten the cigarette at home. That is, she always finds a reason to ask for a cigarette. Many colleagues in the office get angry, but eventually give in. At my job, everyone pretends to give in, but at the end of the month, they ask for the equivalent money back. It is impossible to describe the person’s reaction at that moment. komix32 / Pikabu

I told my colleagues that if they didn’t raise money to pay for the coffee I had bought with my own money, I would padlock everything. No one had any money at the time, which was to be expected. But what they didn’t expect is that I had taken 2 padlocks and left the coffee locked in my drawer. PivBear / Pikabu

I asked a friend why he resigned and he told me the following story. “I was told to buy office supplies for all employees. I bought everything and left it in a box on my desk. After some time, I was called to the boss room. They had placed hidden cameras in the office. When I saw the recording, I was scared. In just one hour, 7 colleagues took a bunch of things for personal use, including my cigarette, my lighter and my change. Working with people like that? No thank you”. PivBear / Pikabu

My wife told me that at work, a colleague came up to her and said:
– Hey! I live close to his house. Can I go with you to work by car sometimes? Don’t go out of your way.
“No problem, I’ll pick you up in the morning and take you back.” We just split the cost of gasoline.
The colleague immediately changed her face.
“Well, then no, thank you.
And left. Galatan / Pikabu

A colleague asked me to borrow money. I lent. She said she would pay when she got it. On the day of payment, I sent a WhatsApp: “Deposit into this account”. Silence. At the end of the day, she came over to my department for tea.
“I sent you a message, did you see it?”
“Of course I saw it, which is why I’m here. I see you’re very nervous about your money, like I asked for a million.
On her face, an expression of contempt.
Why should I be ashamed to ask for my own money back? Can someone explain to me? sven1979 / Pikabu

We have a colleague who never washes his hands. The worst thing is that he prepares coffee with these dirty hands, without the help of a spoon. This continued until we complained to the boss and he bought a gel alcohol for the citizen. dianexis / Reddit

“My colleague often misses work. I made a copy of it so I wouldn’t miss it.”

We had a colleague who was always half an hour late. Every morning she would come up with a story that she had coffee spilled on her shirt or justified it with something about traffic, cats crossing the street in front of her car, etc. One day, she got tired of her own excuses and said, “I’m tired of being late. I live too far. I just need to move closer to work.” No sooner said than done. After the move, she said, “Tomorrow, wait for me on time.” The next day, she arrived around noon. She poured herself coffee and said, “Today I just lost track of time. It has nothing to do with distance.” MadTillDead / Pikabu

You arrive at work and sit in the car for about 5 minutes before entering the office. Then, a super cheerful colleague knocks on the window for you to enter together. Why not allow these 5 minutes of peace? Because? kr4kenz / Reddit

I have a coworker who literally bombards me with words as soon as I walk into the office. I don’t even have time to take off my shirt. She is able to find subject in everything. The other day, for example, I was walking around with some folders in my hand and she stopped me to say that a client’s last name was only one letter different from her maiden name. “Isn’t it super weird?” No, honey, not really. deedubya139 / Reddit

A colleague asked me to borrow an external HD. I asked him not to look at my personal folders and he assured me he wouldn’t open anything. Just out of curiosity, I cut out his face and pasted it into a compromising video. In the ‘photos’ folder, I created a folder called ‘my photos’, inside another with the same name and so on. About 12 folders in total. When I got the HD back, he told me I was an idiot. When I asked him why he had checked my personnel files, he replied, “I was just curious.” Sefauel / Pikabu

A month ago, a group of new employees joined the department next to ours. I’m not good at remembering people’s names. One day, one of them came running to me, documents in hand: “Is it so hard to remember? My name is Max. Maximum. And you gave me some documents from a certain André. I don’t know him, we don’t even have an André in the department. Pay more attention! And my name is Maximus.” At the end of the week, he resigned, right now that I’ve memorized his name.

The air conditioning was not working (in fact, no one could buy batteries for the control). I called using the infrared light on my cell phone, which freaked everyone out. The accountant called me at 9:30 pm to ask me to turn on the air conditioning. From home. I didn’t even try to explain. Jermontaz / Pikabu

At work:
– It helps me? My daughter was asked to give a presentation on Greek paintings at school. Do you know anything about this?
“And why doesn’t she do it herself?”
— She doesn’t know how to use the computer.
“I’m sorry, but I don’t have time and I don’t want to spend the weekend doing a homework on your daughter.
A disapproving look. It’s not the first time she’s asked and I deny it. Zernul / Pikabu

In the office, we have a colleague who is always bothered. Today, she felt hot, then cold, then hot, then cold. Every 15 minutes, she asks someone to turn the air conditioning up and then turn it down. This lasted a few hours, until… “Jorge, it’s cold. Turn up a few degrees”. “Enough! Raise yourself!” Laura got angry and took the remote from Jorge’s hand. “It’s off?”. “An hour ago.” Everyone laughed and she walked over to the table, dying of embarrassment. And she didn’t turn on the air conditioner. last.dragonborn / Pikabu

I work as the manager’s secretary. One of my responsibilities is to check all emails and all sorts of documentation that comes to him. When I’m not at the office, employees often leave documents on my desk with notices about what it’s for and who it’s for. Everyone does it except people in a department with a lazy boss. I always spend a lot of time trying to figure out whose documents to sign. One day when I arrived and there were a bunch of documents to sign on my desk, I just threw them all in the trash. Quickly, the sloth department started handing me the documents with all the details I was supposed to know. That simple. sphynxarecats / Reddit
