I think I see a correlation. If I worked with excessive "tooters" I'd wear a lot of perfume too.

Does the guy in the next cube drive you up the wall with his deafening voice?
Thirty-two percent of employees listed "loud talkers" as one of their biggest pet peeves in the office, according to a survey released by Randstad on Tuesday.

Forty-four percent of those polled said condescending tones were the worst, while 37 percent found public reprimands at work particularly irritating.
Micromanaging struck a nerve with 34 percent of the respondents, even more than cell phones ringing (30 percent), use of speakerphones in public areas (22 percent) and using PDAs during meetings (9 percent).
And 11 percent of those polled hate it when colleagues engage in personal conversations in the workplace.

Hope my ping's not interupting you ping...
Here get them back with a few of these...
Relieving Stress at Work
1. Leave permanent markers by the dry-erase board.
2. Hold up a piece of paper that says in large letters "CHECK YOUR FLY". (At Least for the Male co-workers.)
3. Address your boss as "your excellency".
4. When your boss turns on his laser pointer in a conference meeting, scream "AAAGH! MY EYES!"
5. Sniff suspiciously at your boss and ask if she/he's been drinking.
6. Correct your boss at least ten times on the pronunciation of your name, even it's Smith. Claim that the i is silent.
7. Feign an unintelligible accent and repeatedly ask, "Vet ozzle haffen dee henvay?" Become agitated when your boss can't understand you.
8. Wink at your boss every few minutes.
9. Every few minutes, take a sheet of notebook paper, write "Signup Sheet #5" at the top, and start passing it around the office.
10. Start a "wave" in the conference room.
Co-workers who fart excessively!

All the co-workers in the cubes around me wear headphones. They never hear my farts, so I can get away with it all day long.

Anybody remember Loud Howard from Dilbert?
People taking calls on their #%&*@! Bluetooth earpieces when I'm talking to them. I tell them if they ever do it again I'm gonna smack the thing clear through their skull.
LOL!!!
Dumbass bosses making wild-eyed promises about delivery times that can't be met with a worthwhile product.
You'd hate working with me. I use a coffee cup. LOL
Is your name Dilbert?
People who set the laser printer to stun!
