Brussels & stretches | The WORST office etiquette revealed

For an average of seven and a half hours per day, employees are largely required to coexist in a relatively compact space. Whilst this is positive for good communication and productivity, it also puts a significant emphasis on the need to follow strict office etiquette to ensure that this coexistence is positive and pain-free.

And whilst maintaining a messy working space and being noisy are infuriating traits in colleagues, a study conducted by researchers at Olivet Nazarene University in Illinois found that ‘weird eating habits’ were by far the most frustrating thing that is guaranteed to irk colleagues.

It was this topic that Freelance Travel Specialist Joanne C vented about in a post on LinkedIn which has since made the rounds on social media. “Where’s the etiquette gone?” the professional wrote, before highlighting some of the most surreal or disgusting eating habits that she had discovered via a compiled list on news site Buzzfeed.
