Nicole Crimaldi | Excelle
9. Wear nasty perfume that is so strong that the whole floor wants to pass out or vomit.
10. Ask the same question six times in one day about the status of a project. Guess what? Asking the same question repeatedly doesn’t make it get finished any faster.
11. Listen to loud music at your desk in an open office.
12. Be as cold as ice: don’t make eye contact, don’t ever compliment anyone, and definitely don’t show compassion to your coworkers.
13. Pretend you are the manager when you are actually the assistant.
14. Talk really, REALLY loud all day.
15. Eat smelly food at your desk, chew loudly and don’t clean up after yourself.
16. Tell everyone “you were so drunk last night!!!”
17. Constantly call in sick or make up dumb excuses to leave early due to your personal life.
18. Don’t tell your coworkers when they made a mistake or could have done something better. Instead, you save it for their review six months later.
19. Spy on everyone around you in silence. Then judge them and talk about it in the break room.
20. Make people feel stupid by being passive aggressive.
21. Act like you are way better than everyone.
22. Complain constantly.
