78 Passive-Aggressive Notes That Escalated Coworker Drama To Levels Nobody Was Ready For
When a direct conversation is simply not an option, a passive-aggressive note is the way to go. It is cheaper than therapy, more satisfying than silence, and absolutely guaranteed to solve nothing while making everything way more interesting for everyone in the vicinity. The grievance gets aired with a notice on the office wall or fridge, and the coworker in question either ignores it completely or responds with their own note, and suddenly the breakroom has a whole situation going on.
These are some of the finest examples the internet has to offer. Technically polite, deeply furious, and in some cases, laminated. Because if you are going to start a workplace conflict, you might as well make it weatherproof.

Quite A Threat From My Coworker
Elladine DesIsles 1 day ago
I hope the Canadian politeness was successful, because Dylan, I feel certain, has back-up plans. And Dylan's (American?) colleagues certainly wouldn't want him resorting to ketchup chips and hockey sticks, or setting traps with Kinder toys as bait, or mobilizing the Canada goose militia. Or, if he's feeling a bit more passive-aggressive, teaching anglophones to mispronounce poutine before their business trip to Montreal.
