– Colleagues regularly moaning about work
– Repetitive tasks
– Being stuck in the office when it’s nice outside
– Seeing others get promoted while I’m still in the same position I always have been
– A boring or long commute
– Rarely getting feedback from your manager
– When there’s a domino effect of people leaving to go elsewhere

– Eating lunch at my desk
* Yeah, I hate when everybody eats lunch at my desk, too.
* Well, if you weren’t feeling bad about your job, you are now.
* Oh, boo hoo. Suck it up, people. That’s is why it’s called a job! And I say that because our boss listens to the show.
* Hey – nobody complained about annoying co-workers. I guess they’re not all back to full-time working at the office yet.
* I hate repetitive tasks, too. What about you, (weather or traffic person), do you hate repetitive tasks?
