Doesn't anyone hate it when you quickly leave your seat for a minute to get something, and your still within eyesight of your seat and someone takes it? It is one thing to not have belongings there and they just don't realize it. That happens. What annoys me though is when you have something there on your seat or right in front of your seat on a table and someone takes it anyway. And when you return, they act like they had no idea someone was sitting there, even though your belongings were right there.

It doesn't happen to me all the time, but I find it somewhat annoying when it does. Like, I'll be working on something at a table and quickly get up to get like tape or scissors and someone else just sits there and just starts talking to someone else. And I'll go move my belongings and they'll ask if I was sitting there. Like, maybe it's just me, but I think it is a dumb question. Of course someone was there, the person's belongings are right there.

Even my coworkers do that. I'll be working on something, get up to get something and one of them will just sit where I was at and act like they had no idea I was sitting there, despite having all my belongings right there. Don't really understand why some people do that. Do people really not realize that someone else alreadh occupies that space or are they just embarrassed or just being rude? I've always wondered that. What do you think? Do you find it annoying? Just wondered what your thoughts were.

Like I mentioned, it's one thing if you have nothing on you and someone sincerely had no idea you were sitting there. But it is a completely different scenario when someone takes your space even though it is so obvious that it is already taken. I know it is a small thing and I don't worry about it. It is just an observation I've made and makes me wonder why people do that. When people, like my coworkers, so that, I am thinking, um, no kidding, I have all my stuff right there. Any ideas on why some people do that? Just wondered
