People who use office jargon at work. There are too many examples to list here, but one that's always annoyed me is "thinking outside the box." I once had to sit in on a meeting with some supervisors and managers at a company I was working for, and a manager from the HR dept. used that phrase and as he uttered the word "box" he put his hands up in front of his face and drew an imaginary square with his index fingers. I had to bite my lip to keep from bursting out laughing!
