+1

It is unprofessional to use speaker phone. There are also some people that way till the other person picks up (or voicemail) before picking up the phone. Get a headset!

I don't know what field you work in, but to me, screaming at work is unprofessional (I work in a law firm). I've seen people get in fights and get told to quiet down or go outside. It's just not acceptable behavior.

finger drumming

constant heavy sighing

constant yawning

sipping coffee really loudly, every single sip even though surely it has cooled after the initial few sips?

And the goes on for 15 more mins, while every 5 minutes or so saying "maybe we should take this off line". 30 minutes later...

The partner who clips his nails at his desk. I sit right outside your office - I see AND hear you.

And the coworker who sits next to me who I like, flosses her teeth at her desk.

I'm pregnant and my coworker eats sardines daily. He washes the tin out in the kitchen sink. I threw up violently all over the kitchen the first time I went to wash a cup out after he'd done this. The smell was just repulsive.

Having his headset turned up so loud and so close to his mouth on conference calls I can hear his phlegm. Blech!
