Is there someone in your work before or now that you dont like because of their attitude? How do you respond to their character? What do you learn from them? If you have another job do you find a much worse case scenario than before? What do you do? Of all the projects ive work with i have all the personalities that i dont like. Someone was so bossy and plastic, someone was not humble and live on their higher ground because they first time promoted, someone do work with you and allows you to do work and they get the credit afterwards, someone thinks they are best while doing nonsense and no output at all. And too many things. These are some people that i dont like before that happened to be part of my learnings. Dealing with them one by one in different projects let me laugh now because i overcome what they have. Accepting who they are and teaching myself to be open and learned on the circumstances and behaviour they have. I do attend trainings for personal development for me to reach them out and understand that they have something also that they gone through. Whats yours?

I have this previous boss (who's actually my first boss) that everyone hates. :) Our work relationship was as good as fine. He mandates well with a bit consideration of work delegation contingent to my capabilities knowing that, that was my first job. Yet time flies, that I have finally seen his nasty behavior towards his subordinates. Inconsiderate, unkind words, unprofessional acts, unnecessary moves. I have learned so much from this experience, even time came where we had confrontation regarding negative issues arising between the two of us. Well, that time happened where we spend 8 hours together (two together ALONE, YES!) at four corners of the room in awkward silence. Tittle-tattles, work unproductivity, clingy on co-workers - that's what he describes me during our talk. Well in fact, my heavy to light workloads became indeed NONE-AT-ALL! This lesson learned part of my life was really amazing, I surpassed, and to be honest, I miss our collaborative work. Now, he waves HI, HELLO, SMILE. In addition with this, on my second project, I hate everyone here, the negative issues/environment even without the presence of those people I hate. I have two-faced here. (MATURITY!!) To that person who everybody expect to be ON THEIR SIDE, attentive to their needs, HONEST are truthfully not on her body and soul. But being an ideally person who talks less (just being careful to people who shouldn't be trusted of telling HATREDS), I tend to show a happy person as if I have no complain, tend to show as if I dont know any wicked stuff they do but at the back of my mind face to face, I secretly hate her. PATIENCE is a VIRTUE. Sometimes, when you have nothing to rely on.. you have to work hard being the strongest person in the existence of this kind of people you badly hate. Instances like this normally happens, when you think of this you might say it's easy. But once you get through this spine in the chest, you will get to reflect genuine things.. the lessons, the experience, the suffering, the do's and dont's, and the importance of those true/real people around you.

Its nice that you learn a lot ches, i am happy knowing you have come to maturity age..there's a saying that [i]less talk less mistakes[/i. Well that one can be useful to you now. Every project/work different personalities you come across and the nice thing that we can do for that is being able to become flexible. Go girl be the best always!

I use to try to understand everyone in my workplace so that it'll be a good atmosphere to work on. But now...the ladies there are really annoying me. They are saying words behind my back, spreading out rumors and stuff. I guess the people that I don't like in the office, are those who don't have anything to do better than spread rumors.

I agree with that donsky. Many times i tried but those kind of attitude i hate the most. MOstly if the first one to spread gossip are man. Oh my! Ladies i do know that even not all, some are on talking business but by man that i do not know why... And of course back stabbing is not that good. Those are traitor. smiles infront of you and backstabbed afterwards..that is one horrible attitude. It takes me months before i actually forgive and forget that kind of person. Now im just waiting for what they sow they will reap after. Maybe not to me but with someone.

Hi there Mmgonzales, I have worked with people that I don't like for some reason or another. I don't think that deeply into it. It's not a big deal to me. I'm at work to work and not make friends. Liking your co-workers is a great perk in any job but not necessary. I am friendly to all of them and treat them all the same. A person that I don't like on the job would never suspect it. I know this because I'm currently working with a girl that I really don't like much at all but she tells people that I'm her favorite co-worker. Key is not to gossip about your co-workers and just treat them all the same. We all have to be there. Getting along makes the job more pleasant than bickering and drama.

Nice one sid, it is so nice that you are not attached to your co-worker. anyways it is true that it is not necessary. Being focus in the work is the best anyway not the drama at all.

I cant say I was the best, especially in the later part of my career with the real estate business. I had this colleague. She was good in her work. But there was this need to be one up. I often had my ego entangled with her, because she would try to boss over me. I also had a bit of a complex everytime she found a fault in my work. But the main reason those faults cropped up was because I would be upset with her as right when I would be doing the work she would come and ask me something as if I were answerable to her. That was very annoying. She used to ridicule me about me not being married, and not having children. And she would also ask me to write my retirement savings on her child's name because I didnt have children. That hurt! She knew it hurt. But she enjoyed hurting because she envied me, and wanted to disturb me. Now, in retrospect, I think I could have told her that I plan to leave anything after my demise to children who dont have either parents, not to a child who has both her parents. And that would be so noble of me. She would have shut up. Instead I said I dont like your child - your child is not good looking enough. She got to behave like a martyr, and the whole world was like - all children are beautiful, how can you say that blah blah. All of them had second children after that. None of them adopted that child or even gave anything valuable to this colleague's child. But I was expected to! One of my colleagues even went so far as saying that she would hit me if I wont adopt. Boo! I developed an intense repulsion towards those girls. As to revenge, I will leave it to god. Every dog has its day. Some day soon, I will be a dog too. :)

It is better to be good and be noble. Whatever she did to you she has her own payment for such act. Just do your best and be the best ever.

hello, Yeah, you are honestly correct and what you just stated is true. Many people are not sensitive in terms of their environment. They think they are too rich for us that we cannot reach them at all. I dont like those people who think they are the boss, bully and think they know everything because I am the type of person who let them do first. I learned a lot to them because of the situation that I cant handle sometimes, that is why I just dont pay them attention. Well, as this time I dont have the same scenario like what I am having now. there is not worst than this time.

we've experience same thing. having those kind of attitude have many fears to themselves. they just over emphasize different character from who they are so that it will not be obvious that something they don't know and people wanna know from them. so don't be bother about them. Be kind to them when you are near they will show you who they really are. Mostly if its true that they are not the boss.

Hello mmgonzales, I had an ex boss which was so rude and used to shout on people when someone could not accomplish the target.I used to neglect him most of the time but i could not as i had to meet him at least once in a day. But now no more he is my boss and now i am bit relaxed as now i have a good boss who understands things better than the previous boss.

I have same like that. a boss who always shout. they just used that because they are also pressured in their work better don't mind them. if the shout comes along in your right ear be better to let it pass by to your left ear. sometimes it may annoy you but find time to relax and be with that person. If you thick that your boss is relax and then that's the time you show your face. I'am glad you are finished with his voice and happy that you have new boss who understands and supports.

I don't like bossy people. My lady boss is a bossy people. She likes to command me to do things that she likes. I don't like her at all. So now I am doing flexible job whereby I get my own time to do my own things and earn money.

i knew. she is bossy because she is boss.. sometimes we people dont want to be under by somebody, and because of that you will become a successful on leading your own..its nice to know that you have your flexible job now. and the challenge you have is to overcome yourself day by day...same with me..

Many years ago, I worked with this girl who always found fault in whatever any of the co-workers did. She never smiled, and was just really mean spirited. It was hard working with her. She was a "tattle tale" too, and if you did something that wasn't "just right" you better not turn your back. I handled it by keeping to myself. I would let what she did just "slide off my back." I left that company many years ago, but while I was there just decided to get along with her the best I could, and sometimes that is all we can do.

Yes! There are some characters in my office with whom i don't want to work at all.. I'm trying for a good job.. My boss and his wife are very commercial mentality.. They squeeze us a lot and put work load. My boss earning a lot, but he is not giving us proper salary.. I want to teach him a lesson. What ever it may be i want to leave the present job and join some other.. Then he will come to know my hard dedicated work.

For me if better salary is needed maybe you should left them now. You worked too hard and they did not recognize your hard work then there's a problem really with them. They don't need somebody to be with them... they need themselves and robot perhaps.
