What is the most annoying thing you routinely have to do at work

[Scouzer]

In my case... it's work that shouldn't even exist if technology existed in my workplace.

We have two dot matrix printers, and every second day one of them jams up like crazy so I have to spend 5 minutes to fix them. It really grates my nerves...we shouldn't even be using these things...

Mine would probably be having to do things I know my boss's are supposed to do but they put it down to us lower level folk and then take the credit.

being awakened by a beeper at 2am because mainframe jobs are running a minute or two behind schedule. By the time I log in to check things out, the job that caused the beep is finished! :|
