There's a teacher in my office who routinely clips his nails (finger AND toenails) in the office.
If a clipping ever flies my way I don't know what I'd do. |
You could be more optimistic about your situation and look at your co-worker as an opportunity to make a new contribution to the freakiest waegook thread. |

Go to Shanghai and see a mother holding a pooping baby in the middle of the subway over a trash can, its pooping just falling right into the middle of the bin. Followed by the mom wiping his butt and throwing that in the trash can too. I'm sure that's a little worse than someone brushing their teeth or clipping their nails. |
Good thing this isn't Shanghai or a thread about shanghai in a forum about shangai. |

Guys, (and especially Mr. Bloopy), although I can empathize and understand the situation you are all in, these office habits are hardly something serious or even worth complaining about.

I haven't seem this behavior on the subway in Korea but I have seen it on the street, and more than once. |

One of the reasons high-rise office buildings make their main floor bathrooms open to the public. |

Human waste shuts down BART escalators
When work crews pulled open a broken BART escalator at San Francisco's Civic Center Station last month, they found so much human excrement in its works they had to call a hazardous-materials team.
While the sheer volume of human waste was surprising, its presence was not. Once the stations close, the bottom of BART station stairwells in downtown San Francisco are often a prime location for homeless people to camp for the night or find a private place to relieve themselves.
All those biological excretions can gum up the wheels and gears of BART's escalators, shutting them down for long periods of extended repairs, increasing station cleaning costs and creating an unpleasant aroma for morning commuters.
Five of the nine escalators that weren't working at BART stations on Wednesday were in downtown San Francisco, said Jim Allison, a BART spokesman. While there are many reasons a BART escalator can break down, the beating they take at night is among the most acute.
