Crap I Hate My Co-workers
Attitude - Some days work sucks! But to a person that needs an attitude adjustment every day makes it that much worse, so much that you wonder if he/she made the right choice in careers. I am a strong believer in trying to limit the amount of negative things you say out in the open especially around clients. If you are always complaining, whining and criticizing something or some one, it is simple you are sucking the life out of people and making yourself a chore for anyone to be around. If you have that many things to be in a negative puddle about get a therapist or enlist the advice of a friend on your personal time. Clients, co-workers and bosses don’t need to hear about your unraveling personal life they have things of their own on their mind. So if you are one of these people please be considerate and actively try to prevent your lips from moving in the direction of being a constant complainer and whiner it makes you hard to work with and people will not want to work with you in the future.If you are the fortunate one that has to tell the annoying person off, in a positive way simply state that you do not think you have the time to be able to assist him/her with her woes, because you are working! Then lightly suggest she see a therapist, they are very in right now anyway! Clients can certainly pick up on discomfort between two co-workers as much as you think you are hiding it they are smart they know, so if this person is you stop your nonsense and be respectful to others, if you have to deal with some one like this, nip it fast your clients will thank you for it.
