I am a sucker for a creative, funny, photo blog, the kind that has user submitted content and touches on aspects of daily life that are so annoying that they are downright HI-LAR-IOUS!
Enter passive-aggressive notes from roommates, neighbors, coworkers and strangers.
Yep, this is an actual blog, and it looks like there's enough passive aggressive anger and thinly veiled threats being exchanged by the human race that they'll have enough content to last them to kingdom come.
As you can probably guess, much of the passive aggressive note-leaving is committed by co-workers.
Those of us who used to work in the corporate world know about the Lord of the Flies environments that exists in many offices 
, especially when employees are jammed into cubicles and have to fight to keep their hotpockets, poptarts and pizza rolls from being ripped from their hungry little hands every day. (Are these lunch items even worth stealing???)
And I love the subject line of the above email: "Awkward Request". Uh, yeah I think she's hit the nail on the head there. Awkward and rude to boot! I bet she makes folks weigh-in before entering her office.
If you need a good laugh, please check out more passive aggressive notes left for co-workers, etc.
Kristin Gorski at Write Now Is Good found this gem of a blog--way to go KG!
Just this morning I found a passive aggressive note I left myself last night. I can be a real jerk of a boss.

Haha--maybe the note was left by one of your alter-egos? Or perhaps Joss Markham? Oh, I know, it was probably your new bride. ;-)

Ack, sometimes I think working from home induces more passive aggressive or just downright aggressive behavior by co-workers b/c they can be far more in your face than if they had to say those same things in person.

Maryam--I can see your point! Are these passive aggressive (or just downright agressive folks) working in an office while you work at home?
(Again, this is me trying to link the source of the aggression to being cooped up in an office. Haha)

Sharon, you've keyed me into an entirely new genre of blogs. Thanks for this lead--and the reminder of what I'm missing by being self-employed.

Hey Sandra,
Thanks for chiming in. Yeah, this passive-agressive note blog brings back the memories of being an employee, and I am sooooo glad that there is no one trying to steal my poptarts, hotpockets, or pizza rolls! :-)
