I worked in law firms for over 15 years. Let me tell you, I have worked people who were very annoying, irritating, overly religious (constantly proselytizing to me), who made sexual advances, who were foul-mouthed, and egotistical. Some were chronic gossipers, complainers, and talkers. I found a different way to deal with each person. But in every case, I found the best way was to talk to them directly about whatever they were doing that was upsetting me. I was very professional about it in a non-attacking way. It takes a lot of nerve but I find it's best just to address the problem head on. Some got really pissed and made total asses out of themselves yelling at me as I sat there smiling. Others apologized. But in the end, they usually left me alone after that.
