    Some of the Pet Peeves listed are awesome. I hear you with the Open Office thing Russell. I made it a condition at my job that I get my own office.... I can't handle annoyingly loud people... and usually just close the door.

    Pet Peeves:
    1 - Extremely arrogant people (ie:some of Calgary's self inflated corporate crowd)
    2 - People who wear their Bluetooth earpieces all the time (ie: see above)
    3 - People who drive 20km/h under the speedlimit because they didn't "defrost"

    roommates who leave the oven and the stove on unattended for hours by accident and dont think its a big deal. Especially in a house that was built in the 1960's.

    I sit beside a guy who doesn't handle stress well. It starts with loud exhalations and eventually turns into nervous tapping of his mouse on the desk. I set up a little gauge on the whiteboard to alert people to what stage of stress he is under

    I work in an "open office" so I get like half a wall, some days it really really grits on me (today) as I have to listen to what other people are doing (the loud guy on the phone) and I don't feel like having my music on (or up to a point where I don't have to listen to the office). I can see why it is an open office but at the same time I would get 10x more done on some days if I just had my own little quite space.

    I will add to my list, Compile time of VS on my crappy 'interns' computer
