At some point in our lives, most of us will be working in a corporate building or government office. I am currently a college student trying out the feel of working in an office setting. For my internship, I am working in an office building and as much as I love helping the public and doing easy tasks, there are a few things that annoy me when working in an office building. I'm sure Nene Leakes would have the same pet peeves as I do if she ever worked. Here are some of the pet peeves I deal with on the daily.

1. Starting at 9 a.m. and sitting at your desk for hours but it's only 9:02.

Giphy

Chileeee at this point you wonder why you agreed to these hours.

2. When the phone rings and no one in the office wants to answer it so YOU have to.

Giphy

And then you have to deal with someone yelling about something they can easily fix themselves. You start using the office greeting even on your personal phone.

3. Putting food in the office fridge and someone eats it...

Giphy

There's just certain things you just don't do. You're asking to get slapped (well, after I punch out).

4. That one coworker who INSISTS you guys should “hang out sometime.”

Giphy

Oh no sis, outside of work, we don't know each other. Especially if I don't want you seeing my Instagram account.

5. When your coworkers you don’t get along with screw everything up and your boss yells at them.

Giphy

*Sits in cubicle laughing silently while my coworker is getting blasted and on the verge of being fired*

6. Punching in at 9 a.m. and people are already walking in asking for help.

Giphy

Just because I start at 9 a.m. doesn't mean I'm physically ready…please come in at least 10…..or closing.

7. “Where are you going for lunch sis?”

Giphy

OH NAHHHH lunch breaks are my own personal time, don't bother me or show me pictures of your cats Susan.

8. “Do you have Instagram or Snapchat?”

Giphy

Now they're going to know the real reason why I call out sick.

9. When it's 4:59 p.m. and you're getting ready to leave and someone asks for help.

Giphy

Now's your time to run out...

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

You know that all of these things apply to you. You'll just never tell.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
