Humor: Great ways to annoy co-workers

by Emma Lynn

Created on: May 27, 2007

Here are some great ways to annoy your coworkers:

1. Throw paper clips over your cubicle wall and see how many you can make stick in your coworkers hair.

2. Bring in Fundraiser Forms each week from your child's school and make your coworkers feel guilty if they don't buy anything.

3. When it's time to pitch in for a coworkers baby shower gift, say you'll bring in your money the next day and then keep "forgetting" until the baby shower comes. Be sure to sign the card with the other coworkers so you get credit for the gift.

4. During your lunch break, ask your coworker if you could borrow a dollar. Once you have it, move onto the next coworker and ask the same thing. Continue until there are no coworkers left.

5. Arrive late and leave early. Always have an excuse ready. Could be traffic, an appointment, flat tire, etc...

6. Open your coworker's desk and help yourself to any candy, spare change, or office supplies you find.

7. Constantly compliment your boss in front of your coworkers.

8. Accept personal calls at work, especially if you are supposed to be working on a project with another coworker. The longer you're on the phone, the less work you'll have to do.

9. Clip your fingernails at your desk and flick the waste onto the floor or into your coworkers area.

10. Forward a bunch of spam emails to all your coworkers, especially the ones that say send this to 10 people within 10 minutes and you will be rich by the next day or the ones telling them they've won the lottery in another country.

So there you go! Now you know just what to do to annoy your coworkers. Have fun!
