Your most irritating work colleague
Discussion
My boss at my old job.
A Jolly fat bloke in his mid 50s with the maturity of a 14 year old.
Constant cringe worthy jokes.
A pathological liar
completely money obsessed.
would stab you in the back if it would make him money or endear him to management.
Complete suck up to managers.
Would belittle us when ever he had the chance
cost 2 cleaners their jobs as a direct result of his meddling in a TUPE take over of the cleaning.
completely mad use of colours and fonts in all his documentation rendering it almost unreadable.
miss use of buzz words in totally confusing brain breaking statements and instructions.
Left there a year ago, new boss while slightly OCD, is professional and honest.

Those who wear strong scents and perfumes. I'm not sure what is worse, the stinker or the lemon-popsicle smelling flower exuding waft-o-wench that triggers in me the most unpleasant of headaches. I'm not sure if there's a 'scientific' correlation per se, but i've formed the view that the heavily scented are very much the 'look at me' sort.
Come the revolution, every employee will need to walk you through a scent-o-meter where the rank and the flower wafting are stood aside and made to rub up against each other for half an hour until their unpleasant stenches are equally neutralised.

I'm a 100dB sneezer and a leg-jiggler. Sorry guys.
At least I'm not as annoying as the noisy eater though, masticating his sandwich furiously and with obvious relish whilst continuing his diatribe on his mad Powershell skillz (he's s
t at it). Grim.
Less hateful, but still annoying, is the chap who simply doesn't get how conference calls work. He sits off in one corner of the room, and any time a question comes to him, he talks quietly into the wall so we have to ask him to repeat. EVERY fkING TIME. When he talks to you in person he babbles away at full volume, mostly thanks to the five bottles of Coke and three coffees he gets through per day. And he's a slopey-shouldered bd who sends passive-aggressive emails to people in the next room rather than getting off his backside and actually having a conversation with them.
Actually, maybe he is on a par with the chomper.

We have a guy who meddles in everything.
He complains that he doesn't have the time to do his work, which is often responded to by pointing out that if he just focused on his work alone that he'd be home on time every day.
These sorts are in every workplace, I see and meet them in all the places I work. He complains that he doesn't have the time to do his work, which is often responded to by pointing out that if he just focused on his work alone that he'd be home on time every day.
They take zero responsibility for any piece of work but will chime in with their views and claim some credit if something goes well. Of course if it doesn't go well then it wasn't them doing the work was it...?
My old mans work mate

One of the young guys in our IT department seems to have an obsession with the company bike in finance. She's a bit of a MILF but it's quite pathetic seeing him turn to a gibbering wreck every time she walk through his part of the building.
He thinks that he's being quite secretive, but he literally stalks her around the place, so much so that she regularly hides in one of the meeting rooms with her laptop to stop him from finding out where her desk is.
A couple of weeks ago, we persuaded her to come to the pub with us after work in a group. She knew he'd be there, and she was planning to spend the night with him in the hope it would finally calm him down. It didn't happen in the end - she made the first move, but he completely misread the situation and more or less blew her away with his social awkwardness.
We've now got to put up with his lost puppy act again in the office every time she comes near. Only good thing is that there's a rumour going around that he's resigned.
