those are co-irkers who have accumulated over the past 9 years of working in the auto industry.  Dealerships attract a special kind of person.  

[juliagoulia]

The only people I don't like work in other departments and I rarely have to deal with them, so I'm extremely lucky.

But my old manager? Omg. THE. WORST.

I used to work with this woman I called Stanky. She retired a few months ago.

She was super annoying in many ways.

She smelled like concentrated cigarette smoke. She had long red hair down to her butt that she would swing and dip into food. She never contributed to potlucks or gift exchanges, but she would take stuff.

She was just crotchety and weird. Glad she retired.

 I would be ok with her not contributing to potlucks. 

[agnes]

I forgot about one weird one.

TMI Tammy: She would overshare with EVERYONE. Didn't matter if you were a customer coming in for the first time to drop off your car. She had to tell you about her plans for the weekend, Disneyland, how it takes her 2 hours to get to work by bus, her autoimmune disease, and her LEG INFECTIONS

[Ruby Gloom]

There is no one I really hate, but 2 that annoy the hell out of me:

1) is doing Isogenix (or whatever it's called) and it is a major production every single day. She yammers on about what she's eaten, how many pounds/inches she's lost, and how she's feeling nonstop-especially when the rest of us are eating. She is also a slob, leaving hair, trash, and general debris all around her station. She does a halfassed job cleaning out color bowls, brushes, and color bottles, so either I rewash everything behind her, or often find surprise colors mixed in with the color we mix for clients. I also regularly go around after she's done a pedicure to re-sanitize the pedicure sink because I know it's only half way cleaned out. She doesn't clean or sanitize her implements, they look disgusting and grubby and it just grosses me out. She also uses homemade concoctions for pedi products and if that's not gross enough, she keeps them in these plastic jars that still have sticky label residue on them, and consequently hair, debris and filth stuck all over them. ::shudders::

2) sits on her ass on her phone at her station all day whenever she doesn't have clients. Just sits there ignoring the phone that the rest of us answer, ignoring dirty towels that the rest of us launder, and stacks her dirty color bowls next to the sink. She whiiiiiiiines all day, and has not been on time a day since I've known her. She has a personality problem w/#1 above and whiiiiiiines about it all the time. She bitches if someone goes to get food and screws up her order, which is ALWAYS SPESHAL. Don't even get me started on the strawberry shortcake.

And from my last job, my boss used to count down the weeks until his daughter was "paid off" to his ex. (Child support) As a (then) single/divorced mother it would just royally piss me off to hear him go on and on about it, like she was a car or a mortgage. He was a complete dickfaced asshole.

I work with 4 men. I don't even dislike one of them. MEN ARE EASY!

5. We were applying to law school at the same time. He smugly told me his LSAT score. Mine was higher. I didn't say anything but "congratulations." So he asked me my score. I told him. He flipped out "NO WAY!!!" I found out later he went around behind my back asking anyone if they'd seen documentation of my score because he was convinced I was lying. I mean, my score was good but if I was going to lie I'd have said I got a 180.

This reminds me of a time in college -- a story that I feel I've shared here before, but I'm going to share it again.

It was the beginning of freshman year, and we were playing Boggle one night.  I miraculously found "beriberi," and everybody was very impressed because, really, how often does that happen?

Then one guy says, "YOU know what 'beriberi' is?!"

And I said, "Yes, I go here, too, you know."

Maybe he was your co-worker.  Idiot jerkface!

Currently, I don't have any horrible co-workers.

There is one that gets on my nerves and grosses me out sometimes. She licks her fingers when counting money. Unnecessarily creates more work for herself and others.

Ahhh! Never never do that. Omg. I had a friend who worked in a sheriff's station for a time. She said it was common for hookers to store their cash in their vaginas.

Yeah coke residue is so not the worst of it.

The head of the admins in another dept keeps hiring women that are *exactly* like her in size, shape, age, and personality. It's unnerving. Especially since her personality is loud, fake, and abrasive.

[yourmother]

I don't hate my co-irker. He just bugs and is socially quirky/weird/immature.

He will walk into an office where I am talking my boss it other coworker and will stand in there and "watch" our conversation. Sometimes, he even plops down and sits crossed legs on the floor. We ask him if we can help him (code for WTF are you interrupting us with your presence) and he'll just say, "oh I'm just listening, sounds like a good conversation I could learn from).

[lostrn]

I can't even explain why I hate this one woman I work with. But everything about her drives me insane and makes me ragey. Her walk, her voice, her laugh, and don't get me started on the decisions she makes doing her job, omg. She is the main reason I want a new job. I just can't stand her and absolutely hate it when it's her turn to be the "boss". And it doesn't help that when she's in charge, people constantly come to me and ask why she's in charge instead of me. I don't know, but please direct your complaints to our boss who might actually fix that if she gets enough feedback. Oh I just can't stand her.
