I probably infuriate people by never accepting meeting invitations.
Tip: if you use outlook/google to schedule a meeting that could be organised by wandering up to my desk and saying 'do you have a couple of minutes?' then you're a prick.

Technical people usually have a touch of the iconoclast about them.
Conversely, I hate it when people just walk up and expect me to drop everything.

Oh yeah, that's shit too.
I used to have someone who used to send meeting requests entitled 'STATUS UPDATE' about 10 minutes before hometime for first thing the next morning.

All that did was ensure I was in a foul mood before I'd even got to work.

Me too, the fucking pricks.
I had a call from a guy upstairs asking if we could install software to force the read receipt his reasoning "because you can turn the default one off".
