Two-faced coworkers that will sit down and chat with you for a good 30 minutes about just random bullshit, and then go behind your back and tell your boss that you were listening to music at work thereby revoking yours and other co-workers ability to drown out the other retard's voices with which you work with.

People who answer their cell phones during a movie. And then happily chat while everyone around them wonders who is going to be first to tell them to stfu.
People talking on their cell phones while driving instead of paying attention to the road.
As has been stated a couple of times already, drivers who get to a 4 way stop first and sit there wondering if they should go.
Drivers who get to a roundabout and don't understand what "Yield" means.
Staff who call you to get phone numbers of other staff because it's too hard to look it up themselves and they "know you know the number"...

That sir is a part of life, there is always a little brown nosing weasel out to fuck you to make themselves look better.
I was talking about airplanes(SR71) to someone and a female coworker was listening in (spying) : she went to the HR manager and made an official complaint that I was planning to bomb her house.
After that I was sabotaging the fixtures so "all of us would be in the unemployment line".
She even blamed me for breaking equipment that broke when I wasn't even in the county.
She made an official complaint that I was clicking my mouse "loudly" just to annoy her.
The bitch had a brain aneurysm and was bat-shit crazy, everybody on the floor hated her, she would follow me around with a retractable pen, clicking it to "show" me "how it feels".
Well guess what; she was buddies with the vice president of the company, they made her a supervisor.
The first thing she did as supervisor was to fire me; I fought the decision with the employment commission and got my unemployment.
The employment commission spoke to them first, the commission called me and said don't bother coming in, just file for my unemployment to get my waiting week out of the way.

In my state you can't collect if they had proper grounds for termination. IA telling you to collect sounds to me like you have a shot at a wrongful termination suit if you wanted to go through the hassle.
Also: for kicks you should call up the company and say you are verifying employment of <insert your name here>, if she bad mouths you it that can lead to a major lawsuit as well. at least in my state.
"In my state you can't collect if they had proper grounds for termination." Same here.
This was about 7 years ago, a statue of limitations has probably ran out. I live in a shit state when it comes to workers rights. I'm not a lawyer, I'm just guessing.
HR people say something like this: If you could rehire <insert your name here>; would you? This is how they get around the law.
It's humanresources; in today's work place, people are disposed of at will, kinda like motor oil for a car, they buy you, use you, then dispose of you when they are no longer quadrupling their money on your labor. It's how the country runs, the only people that have long term employment are union members in union friendly states and the people who carry the bosses golf clubs. There are a few exceptions, like a girl that gets knocked up by the owners son and they promise her a job for life to keep quiet so the owners son's wife doesn't find out about it; she can rant rave spit and raise hell in the front lobby with customers looking on through an open door and nothing would be done about it.
also:
I worked next to a guy, who's girlfriend collected wicker baskets with the section heads wife, this is how he got hired, this guy didn't know his ass from a hole in the ground, we were both put on the same project, I basically trained him enough to do most of his job and I did the complex troubleshooting myself but I didn't educate him. Time went on and the project was very successful, the section head gave him all the credit he was the super tech, for his wedding they gave him a big time promotion/raise to engineering tech. When he went to engineering, he couldn't understand anything, the engineers just let him do whatever he wanted to do, to get him out of the way. Once he had to go back to his old job for a week: he couldn't even get the equipment calibrated. He still works there because his wife is buddies with the section heads wife.
Yeah pro-folks know how to handle it properly and can tactfully / legally give you the info. But I can't tell you how many times I have chased down references / work history and gotten an earful of stuff from some owner / manager that could get them sued into bankruptcy. blows my mind. I woulda called her direct, probably too stupid to refer you to HR before running her psycho mouth and getting in hot water. I take a lotta joy fucking with people who screw me over or owe me money.

People that stop at an intersection with a light when they have a GREEN ARROW.
Anyone on the road with a cell phone in their hands.
Argumentum ad populum. People/organizations/religions that claim they're right because "millions of people can't be wrong". The fuck they can't....
