I tried to accept it as a part of their culture but it was the type of Dutch patter that was leading me to a nervous breakdown.

Getting a packet of Extra Strong Mints and when you open them the packet opens right down the seam so is practically useless.

Going for an internal job posting and having to go through an interview with HR.
Usually some noddy who has never had a job outside of HR so doesn't have a clue what he's meant to be looking for or asking about, has no idea what the job will actually require, but as he holds the keys to the next stage he has developed some god complex and lords it over everyone.

Colleagues who’ve bitched and complained about our job for years and been lazy *******s putting in the bare minimum and piss poor work, then now that we’ve just been put into collective consultation to reduce our numbers significantly, are now bemoaning that they might lose a job they now suddenly enjoy, and demanding that the company will find a solution that is tailored specifically to ensuring their continued employment.

We had no real policy on phones in the workplace, there was an unwritten rule of fair use but don't take the piss. Some folk tore the erse out it so phones were banned except on breaks and for emergencies. Those who ****ed it up for everyone moaned the loudest.
There was no restrictions on internet use. Some folk spent all day online shopping, reading the Daily Mail celeb pages and checking Facebook so internet use was restricted. Guess who made the biggest fuss.
We get an hour for lunch, some folk go bang on time then stroll back 10-15 minutes late. When there was a meeting about this they were the most offended at actually being expected to work their hours.
The list could go on for pages. Some of them spend so long thinking about ways to skive and work so hard to do it they would be better just doing the job they are paid to do, it would be less effort.

Plumbs who like to take advantage of all the benefits provided by the Union but are too principled to put their hands in their pockets and actually fund the service provided.

You could be describing some of the folk I work with, always on the look out for a way to do less, then take offence when they’re asked to actually do their job, and when review time comes around and they get less than they think they should, and accuse the folk who do well (me, amongst others) of either being pally with managers or having been given some kind of mythical ‘opportunities’ that they weren’t and that’s why I’ve unfairly been scored higher than them. Naw, you’re just a lazy selfish ********.

Dunno if this has been mentioned but the misuse of the words ‘effect’ and ‘affect’ does my head in...it's really not that difficult.
And don’t get me started on the ‘loose’/‘lose’ confusion...they’re not even close

The worst of the lot is folk who confuse our and are.
I didn't even realise this was a thing but I've had various emails over the last few weeks from 2 different people each mentioning 'are business', 'are house' and 'are restaurant'.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017. Probably robbed in other years
