Most of us here work for a living, some may even have more than one job, but no matter what the job is, there will be some things that get under your skin, especially repeat offenders.

Let’s hear some things about different professions and how people, customers or co workers get to you.

Timmay is excused from the thread :lol :tong

I make adhesive glue and tape. It’s boring because I walk back and forth within about a 6 foot radius every 2 minutes for 4-8 hours a day, putting stuff into a machine. (I also go to school)

I can write a book

1. Management that have clue how to run a company or build a product yet their job is just that
2. Management losing an employee but not rehiring one making my job difficult
3. End users not stating exactly how to duplicate a problem
4. Time = MONEY. Am I the only person that realizes this? Fix the problem once not 10 times. It saves money
5. lLittle things make employees happy.
6. The little people in your company makes it grow. We can run without management. You [b]cannot[b]run without us.

Makes ya wonder why the idiot couldn’t spend 5-10 minutes commenting things cleanly when he knows it’s going to take much longer for the next guy who has to read it.

I comment every single property, method, variable including class, local, scoped, etc…

I’m in outside sales so I can rattle off a few.

Doors getting slammed in my face.  
People telling me to get lost  
People hanging up the phone on me.  
People just being rude to me in general.

Other then that, I can’t say anything bad about my job itself. The people I work with are awesome and I love doing what I do.

I don’t comment anything. If you know the language well than you shouldn’t need a description of every function. My experience is in SQL, so maybe it’s diff for you guys.

It’s more than just understanding the syntax but perhaps why you did something a certain way. In an OOP world, the call stack moves from class to class from DLL to DLL and it becomes difficult to trace. It’s nice if a person can just read top down and understand what the page is actually doing without actually reading the code itself. Again, it’s all about money. The 10 minutes it takes for me to do that is better spent if it helps another person spend a fraction of a second less understanding it.

Also, don’t get me started on Indians. I cannot stand them.
