That's even tougher when they are on the phone so its not like you can go around and interrupt everyone.

I kind of hate voicemails period when it comes to being at work. I don't mind them when it's my cell phone or home phone, but at work I'm like, "Mother f-er, how hard is it to shoot me an email about what the problem is? I GET my emails on my cell phone so even if I'm out, you're going to get a MUCH more immediate response. Otherwise, you're: looking up my extension, waiting for my lengthy voicemail message to cycle through, leave me a message, wait for me to get BACK to get that message, put in my voicemail code (which is way more difficult where I work than it should be) THEN listen to your entire message.

EMAILS.

Speaking of work Co-Workers who feel the need to explain in detail every damn story that happens to them.

LOL, suck it.

Seriously though mredskins, I've gotten conditioned over the years here that the second I walk into my office and I see the blinking red light I instantly get infuriated.

I have this one woman though who sends me an email that says this:

"Problem x8809 (her extension)" That's the only time an email is worse than the phone.

No body to the message, nothing.

Reminds me of the guy I share a floor of this building with (long story how there are only two of us down here)...

...I'm sitting here playing video games like a good employee and he comes in and literally paces my office for 45 minutes telling me about his kids and how he's going into marriage counseling.

We must have the same system it is so annoying it is literally 18 key strokes to get a VM, awful! We have Avaya phones, the worst ever.

They are slowly switching them out so everyone keeps trying to break their Avaya in hopes of getting a new phone but not being to obvious about it.
I have literally proud water on to the key pad a few times and the damn thing still works!
