How to Bring Peace to the Workplace"},"content":{"rendered":"

Whether you work in a traditional office or in close proximity to people, there\u2019s a chance you may annoy your co-workers from time-to-time, or they may annoy you.<\/p>\n

There may be obvious offenders like cooking fish in the breakroom microwave, but there are also small, everyday things that people can find annoying.<\/p>\n

Are you guilty of annoying your office? Keep reading for five of the common workplace behaviors that made the list of 34 Things You Do That Annoy Your Co-Workers (but They Rarely Tell You) from Inc<\/a>.<\/p>\n

5 Behaviors That Annoy Co-Workers <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Loud Personal Calls <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Do you realize how loud you are? Some people are naturally louder than others, but this can cause a disruption to those around you. If you\u2019ve been told you\u2019re loud or simply worry about accidentally distributing the peace, find a place away from others working as to not annoy.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Old Food and Dishes at Your Desk<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      This will likely annoy anyone with a decent sense of smell. Keeping food scraps from lunch in your waste basket or a pile of plates and forks can create an unpleasant smell in the office. If you have a lunch or break room, throw food away there and wash any dishes as soon as possible, or take them home to clean at the end of the workday.<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Hogging Meeting Time<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Are you the only one that speaks during meetings? Even if you\u2019re running the meeting, allow everyone the chance to speak up and share their insights; you might find some wonderful ideas from your team that wouldn\u2019t have occurred to you.<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Pushing Off Blame <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          This is more than just annoying; it\u2019s rude and irresponsible. There\u2019s a high chance people in your office know who is responsible for what and will know if you made a mistake, no matter what you say. When you mess up, accept responsibility, learn from it and move on.<\/p>\n

            \n
          1. Bringing Personal Issues to the Office<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            Whether you are planning a wedding or venting about a friend or family member, there are limits to how much co-workers want to be informed about your personal life. The office shouldn\u2019t be where you organize your wedding reception or handle drama; wouldn\u2019t it annoy you?<\/p>\n

            If you want to keep a good standing in your office, avoid these actions that annoy your co-workers. If you\u2019re not sure if something you\u2019re doing will annoy or not, think about how your actions may be perceived and err on the side of caution.<\/p>\n
