Work

funny

The constant talking on the phone of the person behind me. I understand that it is part of the job but I never have any quiet.

Honestly my coworkers. Some of the people on my team are great and can work independently without being micromanaged, and some of them have to be monitored every second of every day because they won't get their work done if not.

When everyone is communicating at the office with other entities of work and it just gets loud and I can barely hear the meeting I am on in my work headphones and people on the other side can hear the loud office as well despite the background audio suppression being turned on.

Department managers who manage other departments besides their own. My job is to do what my manager tells me so circumnavigating the office without including my manager is not ok and creates chaos.
