Difficult co-worker

the person has meetings on phone all day, I can't concentrate. And those are very long meetings, elongated with a lot of discussion one after the other. Many other factors, but that's the one that drives me craziest

Why is the thread name different?

I thought she was being actively difficult, like picking fights or cursing, arguing with her family over the phone etc... You know...

I would just use earphones and listen to music, use earplugs or grin and bear it in this case.

Because you shouldn't create thread titles like that in the professional area of the forum. This is yet another example of you not understanding the purpose/rules of the professional sections

Join the club! That's what it's like working on a cubicle farm. I'm surrounded by people like the one you described.

Working in a cubicle, I found out that one thing I really can't stand is loud eating all day long. I could still hear it through earphones and everything. It can be very annoying, and I never knew.

I'm around old ladies that discuss their medical issues. Join the club.
