Another tech pet peeve:
You send an email to someone, but you get their OOO auto response, but they give you a phone number to call instead of an email address to send the original message to their coverage person. I hate it here.

Modern pet peeve: when people set up a Zoom meeting and want people to be muted, but they don’t use the “Mute participants upon entry” setting, and instead spend time verbally telling people to mute their devices.

I’m happy when I can help a coworker out with a tricky Excel/Google Sheets formula they couldn’t figure out on their own, and it’s great when they do the same for me.
