I work with a lady that

[browneyes]

chews her lunch with her mouth open. That bugs me. She also talks while she's eating. I really don't like being near when she's eating apples.

Does it freak anyone else out when they see people do that?

yuck

 

[dizneenut]

Ewww! I hate that!

 

[Wagamama]

I had an aunt that would chew with her mouth open while eating while smoking a cigerette all at the same time. She was schizophrenic, so I figured she just didn't know any better. This woman isn't schizophrenic, just has bad manners.

Shannon, that is my BIGGEST pet peeve!!! It GROSSES ME OUT!!

So badly I nearly chewed my son's head off once for doing it! He never did it again!

I think I should've raised your co-worker!!!

That bothers me so much that I would tell her to close her mouth when she chews.

My mom talks with food in her mouth (and after all the times she corrected me when I was a kid.)

Yes, I dislike that very much. But I also cant stand loud, chewing sounds. To me, its as bad as nails on a chalkboard.

Laura, I just try to not get around her when she's eating. I don't go out to eat with anyone here if I can find a good excuse. I've only gone once, but they took me out for a tea lunch a few months ago. I couldn't get out of going since I was the honoree. But sometimes she comes and sits in my side chair and eats while I work. I'm too polite to say anything. I'd hate to embarrass either of us, but it does get on my nerves a lot! (I'm not saying you're impolite for having the guts to say something, I'm just saying I wish I had your guts!)

 

[newmousecateer]

I don't think it would be impolite one bit if, when she sits in your side chair while you are work, you told her "I'm sorry. I am busy and trying to get some work done. Could you please find somewhere else to eat your lunch?"

Why should you have to put up with someone's bad manners?

 

[Bunchkin]

People like that really annoy me too. And how about the one's that also scrape their teeth on their fork?? AHHHHHHHH!!!!!

 

[dianeschlicht]

I agree with disliking the open mouth chewers and loud sounds, but they are no worse than GUM CHEWERS!!! I find that disgusting too!

I'm a gum chewer, but I chew my gum with my mouth closed (I do blow bubbles for my kids sometimes though ).

My husband does this. He alo makes noises while he chews. He kind of sounds like a really big bee.

 

[dianeschlicht]

I find a lot of gum chewers chew open, though. It reminds me of a cow! My mother was a gum chewer, but she never made noise with it or chewed with her mouth open.
