This does my head in - is it that hard to refill and press the button again?!This sounds so petty when I write it down but my colleague just really pissed me off
I put a teabag and sugar in my mug and put the kettle on to boil, but my phone rang so I ran back to my desk to quickly answer it whilst the kettle boiled.
In that time my colleague went in the kitchen, made herself a drink completely emptying the kettle and didn't even bother to re-fill it. My mug was literally on the side and there's only us 2 here so she knew I was making a drink! Considering the only milk in the fridge is my soya milk which I paid for, her drink is looking suspiciously milky too so she's pinched my milk as well! Cheeky cow
Some people are so selfish...This does my head in - is it that hard to refill and press the button again?!
Can I ask, is this on share point or teams? Ive noticed that the formatting seems to change on a shared spreadsheet depending on who opens it & I know they cba going through it to mess it upI love this thread. Been rrading it all day while in a worl grump.
We have a spread sheet that we use for contracts to keep track. Everyone writes the date day-mon-year. One colleague ALWAYS writes it day-number instead of mon- year and it makes it look awful. Like WHY!?
She also repeatedly emails me with the wrong name even though its on everywhere. Sends work my eay which i bounce back and then loudly claims that I am "difficult" in the office, other staff have reported back to me.
It's on teams! Only happens woth them out of 14+ that use it tho!Can I ask, is this on share point or teams? Ive noticed that the formatting seems to change on a shared spreadsheet depending on who opens it & I know they cba going through it to mess it up
This happens to me too and is particularly annoying as my official start time isn't actually until half an hour after I'm in - it's just that I like to be early. But give me time to get settled at desk and have a coffee ffs. The other one used to be when one of my managers would ring me after working hours but he doesn't seem to do that much anymore. My phone is my personal one and not a work one and I mentioned it to a colleague whom I reckon may have mentioned it to him and he's gotten the message.Yep, and they start with “I know you’ve only just got in”. Then leave me alone!
I hate this. I go on a course to learn something from someone who knows about the topic, not to discuss random shite with people who also need the training. Most of the time the group doesn't even discuss the right things but someone goes on a tangent about their specific issue/situation that's vaguely relevant to the topic. And everyone usually says a lot of dumb shit. Then after that someone has to report the discussion back to the whole group. I never volunteer for that as it's embarrassing.Breakout rooms in trainings!! Hate them lol. Absolute waste of time.
I literally laughed out loud when I read your post because it is spot on! Hilarious!I hate this.

Can you tell I really hate breakout groups
there's always someone who has to awkwardly start the discussion, else you all sit there in silence. Ice usually broken by a 'can you all hear me okay'I hate this.

Last time they tried to make us do that not one person in my group said a word. Then when we went back to the main meeting they asked who wanted to summarize the discussion. Again, crickets. They never tried that again.there's always someone who has to awkwardly start the discussion, else you all sit there in silence. Ice usually broken by a 'can you all hear me okay'
I hate them too
I agree with this. I think it can sometimes be a culture thing. At my workplace, almost everyone starts emails with "Hi name", but we work with a third party and a lot of their staff start emails with just "Name". When I first started working with them I thought it was direct and a bit rude (some of their staff can be that way) but I think it's just what they're used to.When I get an email notifiction pop up, and it starts with just my name rather than a greeting, eg:
Jane,
Please could you...
Rather than
Hi Jane,
Please could you...
It just feels condescending to me. It has a very slight passive‐aggressive touch to it. Makes me anxious and not want to read it.
