I've always wanted to work in an office environment since I was a young boy. I would see them at their computers on the American films and think I wish it was me. 

Through different jobs that all involved computers, I've got what I've always wanted. I'm a Web Developer who sits at a desk in an office.

The only problem is, I have recently discovered I can't stand the sound of people typing. Even my own typing annoys me at times. I'm annoyed at myself right now as I'm the only one here and all I can hear is me typing.

I have to put my headphones in and drown out the noise. Don't get me started on what else drives me mad, like the sound of people eating. I think I need help.

Share this if you can relate to it. What drives you crazy about where you work?
