I can't work under these conditions
A ridiculous excuse people use when they're too proud to admit they're being annoying. It's like saying you can't work because your coworker took one extra pencil.
I can't work under these conditions, my coworker took the last pencil and my coffee is gone.
I can't work under these conditions, the meeting is too long and my boss is talking too much.
I can't work under these conditions, my desk is messy and my printer is broken.
