Two Things Here...
Two things to get off my chest.
First off, I have a colleague who likes to eavesdrop on everything that others are saying.
Also, he seems to think he is everyone else's line manager, so if he disagrees with what you say on the phone or tell someone else you've done, he will interrupt and tell you what he thinks of your decision.
I do often want to tell the guy to mind his own business - it's like he constantly thinks he knows better, despite being one of the rudest people I've come across.
Secondly, my line manager.
He can be difficult to talk to sometimes, occasionally about work.
A few weeks ago, someone came round with leaflets about IT training courses that might help. I picked some up - my manager was away from his desk; I booked one up and left them on his desk, with a note "these may be useful for the team".
He chucked them on the floor - probably didn't bother to read them. I didn't comment on it, but I was a bit taken aback.
Rant over.
Just to say, I also had two colleagues talking right over me while I was trying to work yesterday; also annoying.
