There are many things in my office that aggravate me.  Mostly it is the piles of paper that never seem to go away -- like an annoying child.  They just get moved around or replaced by another pile.  Our carpeting has to be replaced, and there is a piece of metal that was sticking out on my desk that scratched my brand new chair.  Working can be a bitch.
