there's this girl who's just started working at my work and she is extremely annoying. She's not a bad person or anything but seriously, no one can stand her! Her most annoying habit is standing there and doing nothing and purposely choosing the easy jobs and not getting into the hard work. Another thing that annoys me about her is that pretty much ALL she talks about is movies. I know there's nothing wrong with being a film fanatic but she quotes from movies all the time, even in the character's voice. One day she just came and sat down next to me and said something I couldn't understand.,,all I could do was look at her and smile. Then she said "Oh i watched so and so (some movie I can't remember) today". And last night we were watching the simpsons in the staff room and she was not only singing along to the songs being sung in this particular episode of the Simpsons, but she knew the dialogue and was talking along with the characters! She's 21! She can do whatever she wants in her spare time but seriously, I think she needs to cut back on the TV and movie watching. It annoys the cr@p out of me. Do you think I'm being too harsh? Do you know anyone who's annoying like that?

You are understandably annoyed. But I have some pity for her. It sounds like all she has is movies and she escapes to them to avoid having to have real relationships. Perhaps she thinks she is lacking as a person and wrongly assumes talking about popular movies will have her perceived as funny and clever. Now, having been around people like this, I would side with you. But obviously this girl is limited in talent (only does small jobs) and personality. I wonder if she will have this job long.

Thank YOU for the best response. And I hope things get better. Because even if you understand where a person is coming from, it still doesn't make the annoyance easy to get rid of.

that's a really good point of view Pam. My colleagues talk about her at work but I feel bad talking about her, that's why i vented my frustration here. I think she may be lacking self confidence. So thanks for you opinion!

I can sympathise with you hun. A few years ago, when I was working in a big office, one of my colleagues would persistently quote passages from the Bible to all and sundry. She seemed to have the hide of a rhino as no amount of asking/telling her to be quiet ever worked. It is very frustrating when you have to work with someone like this, all I can suggest is that you try to ignore it and hope that it stops.

Yes I have been ignoring her. Gees, quoting from the Bible? That's weird. Maybe I should count myself lucky that she's only quoting from the Simpsons!

I used to know a guy that was fanatical about fils and I am not at all and it used to annoy the hell out of me cos it is something that doesnt interest me at all so I just got to the point where I was just saying....# "Your boring me...I don't care... stop that...it's annoying" and after a few weeks of that he got the picture. I was just blatantly rude but I think it is blantantly rude to keep doing something that obviously the other person finds irritating. I must admit that I tend not to take crap off of people. Harsh but it makes me happy in the end.
