:whistling:

What are the things about your work/job that you hate, that wear you out?

List away…aur apne dil ka bojh halka karein.

repetitive nonsense
people asking me questions about their own job that they should ask their supervisors
people calling just to ask a question instead of throwing it in a text
people doing half the work, leaving gaps and loopholes so that they must be hunted down and told to do it, and jitna time ye sab kerne men lagta hai, insan khud hee kerle
people giving pushback when I tell them I can't do something- and eventually hearing from me of course
people keep stopping by just to chit chat when I already have a lot going on
people having loud groupchats nearby so I have to get up and close the door
people talking on and on and looking at me, expecting me to pitch in when the topic is of zero interest to me
people discussing and sharing pictures of their pets and other such non sense
people asking me personal questions and attempting to intrude in my personal life
micromanagement in general and being told to micromanage someone else
having to change multiple 15+ digit passwords every month, and they cannot repeat
crappy compliance trainings that mean absolutely nothing
crappy compliance trainers nagging me and tracking that one training I didn't complete

List will be updated shortly.

You should go into Real Estate, with your personality you could make millions. My assistant was telling me her 24 year old friend made 2.3 million last year in Austin. I am mentoring and coaching Harris to be in Real Estate and become a home builder. You make your own hours, work at your own speed. Harris has similar personality and he loves it. Hopefully he leaves home town and goes to Bay Area or Texas, Florida…

People parking on my parking spot

People asking me what Iâm having for lunch today- none of your business, first of all. And no, Sierra, I won't be picking up your panera bread order.

Doesn't happen anymore but when I started here: B-b-b-b-but do you eat ham? Beef? W-w-w-w-w-what about chicken wings?

Thanks Bobby, I think I will need a lot of coaching on real estate.

-Petty jealousy
-Giving unclear or completely opposite instructions and expecting me to read their damn minds
-Making a huge deal out of a minor mistake that I make but treating their own huge mishaps as no big deal
-Stress, stress, stress, stress
-Expecting me to go out of my way to help but not extending the same courtesy back to me
-Long working hours without any breaks
-Weekend work

In short, I despise my coworkers but I like the work itself.

People/Things I remember/despised from my time working for somebody else.

  • Boss's official ball-boys, i.e. guardians of the testicles.
  • My boss, that sick son of a b!tch...
  • The pretty girls that get to make their own hours because none is daring enough to tell them otherwise. Oh, and most of the senior management regularly flirts with them, so they are "well connected".
  • People that stay past 5 pm, just so their boss gets the impression that they're hard working. When in reality, they are well past level 100 in Microsoft Solitaire and have 65 million chrome tabs open at any given time.
  • People that take their jobs way to seriously.
  • The cliques.
  • That one guy that only hangs-out with the women of the office.

Things I remember from my time working for my dad.

  • Taanay.

I belong to a profession where my best and sincerest efforts won’t produce the kind of results I am aiming for because the “other party” can’t consistently fulfill their basic responsibilities. You take 2 steps forward and they push you 4 steps backward because they can’t get their chit together and they will conveniently blame you for it. That is what I hate the most.

THIS! People that go by the rulebook beyond all levels of stupidity.

Show-offs that seek brownie points by asking for clarifications over the most obvious errors when THEY KNOW already. I’m tempted to make the effort to walk up to the other floor just to stop by their desk and ask what the confusion is, and why I wasn’t emailed directly instead of “Reply All” with 55 other people. Gets me everytime :blush:

inhales, exhales I need to incorporate yoga in my life.

Dare I say, the loooong yet totally unnecessary “meetings” :hbk:

Have you discovered the mute button, yet?

Ah, thats my default mode. But damn these proj managers who have to ask S, you agree or do you have any comments.. and then i end up flipping back my chair and looking to unmute again :smack:

LOL they making sure S is not taking a nap.

Absolutely hate administrative tasks, report writing and correspondence.
