Every office has one . . . that clueless, annoying person who drives everyone else crazy. But have you ever thought about this?
--Maybe YOU'RE the annoying co-worker in your office. Here are ten ways to tell:
#1.) You give advice to everyone: Unless your co-workers ask for your advice, butt out. Why? Because who are you to give them advice anyway? Get over yourself.
#2.) You're always talking about the good old days: Offices are constantly changing. Always focusing on how the office used to be isn't doing anything to make it better now.
#3.) You get colorful with your language: Some topics of conversation just aren't appropriate for the office. You need to know where to draw the line.
#4.) You're always asking for favors: At first, your co-workers will be happy to help out. But if you've been working in the office for two years, and you still don't know how to make copies or send a fax, that's just lazy.
#5.) You always have to top the next person's story: We get it . . . your life is extremely exciting and, compared to you, we're all uninteresting and bland. At least in YOUR head.
#6.) You wear too much cologne or perfume: Your co-workers have no choice but to be around you all day long. Think about that the next time you're bathing yourself in Drakkar Noir.
#7.) You put the entire email in the subject line: There's a reason your email has a subject line and a body. Learn those reasons.
#8.) You always respond "K": If someone writes you an email or an IM, and your only response is to write "K," just do us all a favor and not write back at all. We'll assume you got the message without your pointless response.
#9.) You can't wait to go home . . . every day: By the end of the day, everyone wants to go home. But if you feel the need to announce your desire to leave every day, it's just going to annoy your co-workers and make them hate you.
#10.) You're always throwing office parties: First off, office parties aren't REAL parties. They force you to have awkward chit-chat with people you probably wouldn't hang out with otherwise, and they're disruptive when they happen all the time.

The most romantic thing my husband has ever done for me -- My husband was working in New Brunswick at the time Anne Murray had a concert in Halifax. My husband surprised me by piking me at my job in Lunenurg and taking me to the concert. At six o'clock the next morning, he was back up at this job site in Fredericton.Now that is love!!
