Over the years I haven't had that many jobs that involve massive amounts of filing so I have been lucky there but that would be one of my pet hates. Everything these days is usually electronic filing.
I guess one of the things I hate is being the hostess with the mostess. You know if you work in a medium sized company where two cups of tea/coffee doesn't warrent hospitality and your boss doesn't want to take someone to the canteen.
In my previous job my very awkward boss was on a different floor to me. On various occasions he used to phone me up and ask for tea or coffee which I provided. However it was on the rare occasion when he asked me for a glass of water that really annoyed me. I had to walk downstairs to the floor he was on, find a glass from the kitchen/come tea station, fill it with water and bring it to his office - rare to say the least!
It's the lastminute.com jobs I hate too eg. Gee can you do this but I need it for a meeting in 10 minutes.....eh do you want it in 10 mins or do you want it done correctly?
