Annoying things coworkers do

We’ve all been there: stuck in an office with that one coworker whose very presence makes your blood boil. I once worked with a guy who thought whistling tunelessly was the perfect soundtrack to our workday. The memories still haunt me. If you’ve ever had an annoying coworker who made you question your career choices, you’re not alone. Here are 20 annoying things coworkers do that will make you feel seen and understood.

This collection of 20 annoying things coworkers do is a cathartic journey through the shared agony of workplace nuisances. From the habitual loud talker to the lunch thief, these photos capture the myriad ways coworkers can get under our skin. You’ll see classic offenses like never replacing the printer paper, leaving dirty dishes in the sink, and the infamous close-talker. These annoyances aren’t just minor gripes—they’re universal experiences that unite us in our daily grind. Whether it’s someone endlessly clicking their pen or monopolizing meetings, these images reflect the small yet significant ways our colleagues can drive us up the wall.

What is something a coworker does that drives you insane?
sings and hums constantly
We had a girl in our office that actually did that, really nice girl but she was driving everybody in the office nuts with her singing and humming. So we came to a compromise, she could hum or sing for the first half an hour as much as she wanted, after that no singing no humming. And then she would like inadvertently start humming or singing like real low, and somebody would cross the room would say "Anne." And from her cubicle you would hear "sorry"
He actually just doesn't care, he's been told as nicely as possible and didn't give a about it, just shrugged.
I had a co-worker that would cut her toenails while I was talking with her.
Ihad a coworker that did that. ....once.........and only once. Especially after he was banned from using the break room microwave
He is technologically illiterate, so any time he does anything even slightly different than his usual tasks, he asks me for help figuring out how to "save as", or how to access a site that needs a password, etc.
blast emails links to product recall notifications that have nothing to do with our jobs. The majority have to do with baby products and they are the only one with a baby
