NWR: Vent

I'm sorry, this is not wedding related but I can't scream out loud at the office so I'm releasing my anger here.

The girl who sits behind me eats SO loudly! She doesn't close her mouth when she eats and she just chomp chomp chomps and it's really irritating! When she drinks tea she also slurps it really loudly. How can I address this? I'm going to blow my top really soon!

Re: NWR: Vent

booo, sorry...I don't know if it's something you can address without getting a serious stink eye lol. Just play some music.

There is a lady who talks to FH at work who ALWAYS spits on his arm when she talks and FH wants to strangle her but just purells the shlt out of his arm after she leaves.

Again, I can't offer any advice to him either lol.

eta: didn't see the cookie monster pic, I got a good visual of this lady now

Re: NWR: Vent

I've tried to drop hints like 'Oh hearing you eat makes me hungry!' or something but she's not picking up on it! I mean, my mother was a stickler for it, we ALWAYS got yelled at if we didn't eat with our mouths closed, so maybe I'm just super sensitive. But MAN, she pi**es me off! Stink eye all the way!

Ohhh thats annoying!!! I had the same situation at my old job and I really couldnt handle it anyore so I turned around in my chair and said 'Look, Im not trying to be a B*tch but the whole office doesnt need to hear you chewing!' Im pretty sure she hated me after that but the whole office thanked me cause she stopped eating at her desk LOL

Re: NWR: Vent

Ugh that stinks! I would be so annoyed too ... honestly I wouldn't know how you would go about addressing that issue... ear plugs?? LOL

Re: NWR: Vent

I would turn around and silently stare at her mouth while she eats. Don't say a word just stare at her open pie-hole as she masticates.

It will be awkward for you but in a few seconds she WILL get it. Trust me. You'll know the moment the light bulb goes off. I've tried it and it worked.

ps- This is one of my biggest pet peeves, it the WORST when it's peanut butter, too!

Re: NWR: Vent

Sorry to hear about this. Ask her politely to chew with her mouth closed

Idk the answer to this... cause I have people that clip their nails, eat fish and other smelly foods, take off their smelly shoes, and sneeze/cough without covering their mouth in my office...

but I did want to say I like your cookie monster picture

isnt it amazing how nasty some ppl are-- haha iknow the feeling, i hope no one can say thatabout me, i eat yogurt and pretzels, haha n fiber one bars in my yogurt-- haha

i dont think theres anything you can do about it honestly, without starting a problem at work, and who wants that
