Scouts Top 10 things that you don’t want to hear in the office:
We saw an article this week about Top 10 sayings that get on your nerves that you hear in the office. It was quite a funny list and included ‘Blue Sky Thinking’ and ‘Lets think out of the box on this one’.
All fairly standard stuff though certainly when you sit with a Creative Agency, so we thought we would have a brainstorm here in the Scout Hut about our Top 10 things that drive us mental in the office. As you can imagine a few truths came out, but all meant in the most positive and endearing way of course 😉 Below are our thoughts – enjoy:
In at number 10: When there is no space left in the entire building to have a meeting and you have a Candidate about to turn up for interview. Oh well, lets go to a café!
Number 9: Running out of coffee for the machine – not a productive day when that happens.
Number 8: When there is no space left in the car park out the back of our office – first come, first served – you snooze you lose!
Number 7: When the fridge freezes everyone’s lunch – it can be a tad temperamental.
Number 6: When Rebecca has her earphones on (because she has had enough of the boys usually) and doesn’t realise her humming is actually quite loud.
Number 5: When all of us are on the phone at exactly the same time – it can get crazy loud.
Number 4: When the boys start talking incessantly about Rugby, Football or Horse racing.
Number 3: Running out of room freshener spray – we sit near the bathroom and it can sometimes get quite bad if someone is having an ‘upset tummy day’.
Number 2: When we run out of either chocolate or alcohol in the office – not sure which one is worse.
And at Number 1, the thing that annoys us the most is: When someone brings in really amazing smelling food and they eat it early – it just makes everyone soooo hungry.
Let us know what your office’s Top 10 is as well – bet it will be similar!!
