I have a guy that sits next to me that I am fully convinced has a hearing problem of some sort. He has one level of speaking and it's just a hair below a shout... On top of that... this part I do know for a fact.... the dude has sinus "issues" beyond anything I have ever seen/heard before! He has no qualms about blowing his fog horn repeatedly through out the day.. be it in his cube, standing outside mine, or in meetings.. And besides it being flat out disgusting... it also comes out at about 100 decibels. I really can't get how some people can be so oblivious to their surroundings???

id kick him in the nuts!

sort of a combination of the two. a work area/desk in the corner of the a parts department.

Why?

Oh and pigsteak, no one at work complains about my whistling and trust me that would say something if they didn't like. probably something like..."hey shut the fuck up"!

when people at work start to piss me off, I find myself singing a little "Bite me, bite me bite me" song under my breath. Keeps my demeanor a bit sane and controlled for the time.

I run a bodyshop though you might be a tech.. I've alway got my eye out for top techs. As you may proably know they are hard to come by.

My co-workers whine and bitch more than any other group of people I have ever met. Off work I hate hanging out with them, and very few of them would I willingly associate with. Their topics of conversation are predominantly strippers and what they did while drunk. They're belligerent, loud, obnoxious, rarely take showers and even more rarely change their clothes. Most of them don't grasp sarcasm. That being said, they'll run across an open space with bullets literally kicking up dust at their feet so they can cover me and the rest of our guys while we are exfilling. They won't do a thing more than what is asked of them ever, but what is asked of them is so much more than most people do that I really don't blame them. We try to kinda overlook the things that irritate us about people, as long as they do their jobs. Would much rather have an asshole who you know will stick than a nice guy who will fold. Survival takes precedence over niceties.

Thank you, Dink Dink! My son-in-law left for Iraq today.

I have to share an office with a guy who likes to stomp his foot alot.

He also likes to select the same piece of text on his screen over and over and then press the mouse button. He does it when he has an OC moment. And everytime he does it I get a little closer to killing.

What is the label of the x-axis?

To make me feel better, I record and document every bark (full geek style). Even created a Flash graphing program to display.

Pigs.
Climb like an Egyptian!
