- Co workers who come up to my desk and make comments about what is on my computer screen.
I want to make my head spin around and in a demonic tone say, IT IS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS!!!

Unecessarily Rude Girl-She and I have worked in the same building for 3 years, and she has never said a word back to me on the elevator. I am not Susie Sunshine but good lord, would it kill you to say “hi” when I say Hello?
I used to work in central marketing for a large aerospace company. The “pod” I sat in was surrounded by men working in various areas, from sales to engineering.
I was working on the newsletter one day when Carol, one of the assistants from the engineering area asked my co-worker (the only other female in the area) and I to please come with her. We walked, through all of these other desks to the photo-copier/printer/fax located on the opposite side of the large office space.
She proceeded to show us how to change the toner cartridge. She said “Because someone else should know how to do it.” I looked around at all of the men sitting within feet of the machine.
Yeah, because we wouldn’t want the men to get toney on their clothes or anything [ul]
[li]Stupid people that don’t listen, then ask a question right away that had just been answered. Open your bloody ears idiot![/li][li]People that are indecisive - Well if I do this… this will happen, but if i do that…this will happen…hmm…what do you think? So you think I should do that, well maybe if I study the options a little more… COME ON, we don’t work in brain surgery, just make a choice![/li][li] Women that are gossipy, backstabbing bitches. Show some professionalism ladies! Get your cattiness under control and let’s do the freaking job we are paid to do! I managed a female only staff - NEVER again![/li][/ul]
Right now, it’s the fact that my boss still hasn’t left for the day. Damnit, I wanna play some Kingdom Of Loathing! Beat it, buddy!!
Reminds me of all the home-made case-crackers for the Mac SE30 and others of that one-piece ilk.
Sometimes I think Apple’s had a few frustrated evil world dictators on their industrial design team that have wanted to build the perfect un-openable thing all their lives. 
One of my main frustrations is stupid requests. One that just came through said in its entirety: “Please revoke access to Fernando.”
Yeah, you stay away from that Fernando. He’s a bad boy!
Of course, I have no idea who’s not supposed to play with Fernando, so the request gets kicked back for clarification. I’m expecting they really meant to say “Please revoke Fernando’s access to <some system>” but without a user ID, full name or the system, it’s pretty tough to sort out.
No, wait, I misread that, right? What you meant to say is “It gets way better!” right?
