Annoying worker caught in two minds? (12)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

antagonising

'annoying' is the definition.
(antagonising is a kind of annoying)

'worker caught in two minds?' is the wordplay.
'worker' becomes 'ant' (worker is a type of ant).
'caught in two minds?' becomes 'agonising' (eg agonising over a decision).
'ant'+'agonising'='ANTAGONISING'
