Working from home saves me from those. However, the one that still haunts me over conference calls is "Marty Martyr". Back in my early days of being a wise ass youngster, I used to hand out the Marty Martyr award. I'd stick it on the outside of the cube from whence the most vocal whining came. It said something to the effect of "The occupant of this cubicle has life much harder than anyone else on the planet" and other crap like that. Most people didn't know the award had been given to them until it had been there a few days. It only shut up a few of the smarter whiners.

Ha -- we have a variation on that here. "Person Who Makes Series Of Puzzled, Whiny Noises Until Someone Asks What The Trouble Is." Said trouble usually involves Excel.
