They range from the technological to the downright odorous.

Tension: Office harmony can be threatened by a wide range of irritantsThe survey of 1,500 workers published yesterday added printer jams and unnecessary emails to the list of top irritants.

調查還顯示，對於工作來說，對於女人而言，工作和家庭屬於魚和熊掌不可兼得的範例。有三分之二的母親因要照顧家庭而不得不放棄工作，英國專家 Dion Smith還說：“辦公室的那些事讓白領人抓狂，有人希望全自動時代立馬到來，比如說有卡紙機不再需要人工操作，還有碳粉墨盒能自動填滿等等，但是，科技倘若愈來愈發達，人是變得越來越懶了。”
