Do you have a guy like this at YOUR office?
Do you know certain people who, for some inexplicable reason, they just irk you? For all intensive purposes they’re nice people, have never done anything to you, but they just annoy the crap out of you? Yeah me too.
There’s this one guy… we’ll call him PrintingFreak. He sits two cubicles away so it’s easy to hear him. He’s got this voice that, I don’t know, isn’t shrill or whiny or anything… but it just sounds so… snobby! It bugs! And I hate the way he laughs. It sounds sooo nerdy. Kinda hard to describe a laugh, but it’s like “Huh [sharp inhaling noise] huh [sharp inhaling noise] huh” very rapidly. I just wanna duct tape his mouth shut. I hate the way he yawns too. And he yawns often.
But what earned him the title of PrintingFreak is his habit of sending a 200-page document to the printer, and then walking to stand next to it to stare at it while it prints. The stupid printer is right next to me, so of course he’s standing right behind me. I’ve mentioned him before, but damn it’s so annoying I have to mention it again! He just stands there, staring intently at the pages as they slide out of the printer.
Then when the damn thing is finally finished printing, he’ll take the stack, take two steps away from the printer and then stop to just stare at the printouts. Dude, read your frickin document at your own desk, that’s what it’s there for! Freak.
