The AP department who uses the kitchen near my office instead of the one closer to them because they are afraid the HR/Office Manager will see them. Its a constant coffee break parade past my office and different cultural smells from the microwave is enough to drive someone crazy.

1/2 the times I either heat my lunch up at 11.30 to beat the "cultural" rush or walk across the office to the other kitchen.

I am relatively isolated in an "inner" office so I dont get the cube farm issues which I am 100% thankful for.

Oh yah, and people who no matter how many times you tell them "forget" to change their smart phone email password when they change their network password and then complain they are not getting email on their phone IDmf10Ts

Oh yah, the new one is the new marketing person who needed Adobe Web and Design CS6 and then complained that it took over 17 hours to download 5GB from Adobe. You need a $2500 software package and then complain that it takes a long time to download - suck it up buttercup.

One ore, the constant request for Email Distribution group that doesnt conform to company policies. No I am sorry I cannot create DavesReportees@Email.com - I dont know how many times I have to say it but with over 50,000 employees other Dave's might wonder why that group exists (especially if you dont have VP in your title).

Last 1, inter company kingdom builders. The person who takes on all responsibilities and then does none of the work and tries to delegate them to others - I am sorry but that is not in my job scope so no, you will have to get that yourself (the first 3 times ok, but after that I live by the baseball analogy; 3 strikes and you are out.
