I Hate My Coworkers Knowledge Base

How do I stay in good graces with my boss, and coworkers if the coworkers hate my boss? I work at a summer camp, at the craft center. None of the other camp staffers like my boss, but I don't think she's that bad. I want to be in good graces with her, but I don't want to be shunned by the other staffers. What should I do?
I hate my coworkers - How do I get out of going to an office xmas dinner? It's expected that everyone from our department will attend but I don't want to go and I hate everyone I work with. How can I get out of this thing? It is during working hours so it isn't so easy. Did I mention I hate everybody? I would rather shave my head with a cheese grater than be forced to socialize with them.
My coworkers hate me...? I've been working for a company for the last 3 years, when I first started there I had a positive attitude about everything, I was so happy to be there but 3 years later things have completely changed. For starters let me say that all but 3 of the 10 employees there have quit including a supervisor, with the new supervisor 2 years ago I started seeing changes in how the bank was being managed. In conjunction with my boss they completely changed a lot of things. The bank went from being pretty laid back to uptight and micro-managed to the T. For every little thing that we do its a write up or a call to HR. I'm so tired of this. The micro-managing comes in in the form of constantly be given stupid evaluation, TESTS, can you believe this? And the tests are on a subject(s) that are discussed thoroughly at a meeting and then dragged to death for the next 4 months. Now, not to brag but I know my Shit & theres nothing that I hate more than being given the same tests, having the same talks over and over & OVER. Another point thats driving me crazy is that we are evaluated by customers, they (my job) works with an outside company that surveys the customers and has them grade us on our performance, now mind you this "performance" is mearly taking everyday deposits, withdrawals, & check cashing, seriously nothing to fret over, but the grading system works in how "nice" we are, if we made them "feel special" did our job correctly, etc, etc... I don't know if its the pressure of having to perform so well all the time or the fact that I'm constantly in fear of being given a bad score but most of the time I do pretty bad. I'm not a mean person, but I tend to be quiet and more reserved then the rest so it doesn't come naturally to be a loud bubbly person. Unfortunatly I have a co-worker who is all of the above and always scores perfect every single month on these customer evaluations. I have to admit I wish I could have that personality but I just don't. So I feel like I'm treated differently because I don't perform well. All around I'm very miserable at my job, I strongly dislike my manager on a personal level because I feel that she is incompetent and has to constantly tell me to do things that I do everyday without needing to be reminded and because of past issues. Lately I've been starting to feel like an outsider at my job, I come in, work, don't make much convo with any1 & I'm on my way out. I know this sounds like an endless rant but its mostly me venting and needing some advice from anyone out there that can help me. Its seriously depressing but I feel like I have no choice because of this economy. Believe me I have been on countless interviews but things are rough out there, plus I have a baby to care for. :`(
Why my coworkers hate me? I'm new to this job .some of my coworkers are trying to make me quit.Thy directly or indirectly blame me everything wrong,they talk behind my back, they make fun of what i'm doing or what i'm saying , they humiliate me in front of costumers.I'm only working two months and I feel like i'm in a Little hell.The manager is silent and not willing to interfere.I'm not perfect ,I sometimes do mistakes but they are not too many as a new guy.I'm black and I have a foreign accent but not very strong accent .I end up everyday strained and headache.Now i feel like i'm defeated and quiting is not good Choice for me .your suggestion wil be helpful.Thanks
Why do my coworkers hate me? All I want is to fit in, but they make fun of me all the time
I'm convinced my old coworkers hate me. They used to like me, but don't anymore? I worked with a group of people for like 3 and a half years and got on well with pretty much all of them. I left last October on bad terms after I jokingly said to the person that was taking over my duties "You're going to have lots of work to do, taking over my job, and I don't care because I'm leaving HA HA HA". Was this a prick thing to say? I used to get on really well with the guy, but when I got a going away card from everybody, he had drawn a patronising card with all the staff celebrating that I was leaving, good riddens, that sort of thing. Everyone would have seen it when they signed it. I was so embarrassed. I did get a going away gift, but I overheard a few people saying that I "didn't deserve a gift". Not sure why they said that, but maybe the guy told them about what I said. I know he told the manager and I got called into the office about it. Because of all this, I put off going back there until today, and when I went in, I was greeted, albeit kinda coldly. They all looked at me like "Oh, it's YOU. What are YOU doing here?". I did talk to 2 of my old co-workers who were nice to me. The guy who drew the card passed me. I said "Hi" to him and he said hi back, but kept walking, ignoring me as if to say "Don't follow me". This has made me think. Am I a bad person because I haven't been back to see anyone in almost a year? Am I the one in the wrong? Are they justified to feel hostility to me? I feel like a prick. What are your opinions?
Staying or leaving when most of your coworkers hate you? Basically while the manager was away for the day i was sort of unofficially tasked with making sure stuff ran smoothly, and that ensured making sure people were doing what they were suppose to and making sure work was prioritized. It involved me asking people if they wanted to do this or that. Apparently people were getting annoyed at me for simply relaying the manager's orders, maybe because i'm on the exact same position and pay grade as them and they didn't like it, or maybe i seemed kinda snobbish or somehow being annoying about it. A few of my co-workers started taking issue of me asking everyone to do this or that even though it was just that: asking. A few told me f*** off and had a word with the manager about everything when she got back. Of course nothing happened because i was simply doing what the manager told me to do, and even informed a couple of the people who had minor issues with me that she was aware of everything that was going on since i was keeping her updated. Regardless, the friction is now there. So basically i'm still in a great position with my boss, but a really bad one with my entire team! well maybe not entire, like 95% of them which is still significant. I'm not sure whether to just ignore everyone, or start finding a new job. I've applied for an internal vacancy at the other side of the small office (my boss recommended i apply and is even offering to put in a word for me, not sure if she still is now), where i'll be working with a different team. Not sure if that's enough though. If I don't get it, i'll be stuck with these people. I can easily ignore them, that's not the issue, and i doubt they'd go so far as to stab me or something after work, but it won't be a friendly environment for me which never helps in the long run. Any recommendations? Thanks.
Hate my jobvey: Whats your favorite ways to show your coworkers you hate them? So far today i've punched 100 into the copiers everytime i've gone into the copy room and I just reheated Tuna Nuna Casserole in the microwave to permeate the entire floor with the stench of what seems to be my vagina... what else can i do?
I hate my coworkers, bosses and owners, but received a transfer....? Here's the deal, I absolutely hate and loathe the people I work for, and they, without hesistation, approved my transfer to the city I moved to. However, I absolutely hate them and everything they stand for. Everyone makes mistakes in the company, but I have received harrassment emails and letters for errors that don't even have anything to do with me. I could file a complaint, but I just want out. I received the opportunity of a lifetime. A band hired me in as their lead guitarist to go on tour with them. Their, at the time, lead guitarist told me he would bow down to rhythm guitarist just to have me join and I will be making at least 3 times more a week than what I do....does it seem to obvious? Or am I just too cautious and careful about my choices? Should I take the leap of faith?
I hate my coworkers? is that bad? I just started a new job a month ago, Its just a part time job as a host at a restaurant since im in college full time. Im 22 and all the other hosts are 16-19, besides one girl who is my age. I feel like i click with none of them. They are all very snobby and worried over silly problems and I feel like im past that since I graduated high school 4 years ago. I dont know if finding a new job bc of this would be dumb. I liked my coworkers at my last job at a different restaurant as in they were more like me (laid back and more mature). Should i look for a new job or would that be immature and rediculous?
What to do if you hate your coworkers!? I'm sure there are better ones around but the group that i am sitting with are just .. ridicules. They don't read, don't watch the news, knows nothing about what's going on around the world. That's still ok. They took hours to locate where is Asia on the map!! *roll eyes* They can't tell the different between state and county. All they do is spent time watching some videos on you tube about some others acting silly, chat on IM and talk about really silly stuff all day. I want to make 1 last attempt to work with these "idiots" before i leave the job, its my 1st encounter with such coworkers .. what should i do? I've been ignoring them .. but that kind of makes my job not enjoyable :S Lol .. yes i'd love to: Give them a Common Sense Book For Dummies then Punch them in the face ;) haha yes, Sparkit absolutely agree
I hate my coworkers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!? What can I do......besides quit because I need the job too badly. The most intuitive and thought provoking answer gets a quick 10 pts for Best Answer.
How should I act around someone I hate whom I have to see at work? Here's the thing, I hate my coworker. He's a such an ass-kiss. He lies all the time and gets away with it. How do I cope with this? I can't stand him. I like my job, but working with this guy makes everyday miserable. How should I start to act so that I don't let this guy affect my days at work? I try not to let him get to me but he does. I wish he'd just disapear!!!
Would you say that negativity or positivity is promoted in your local town/culture? In my town, it seems like negativity. I work with the public, and the most popular "ice-breaker" is complaining (about the weather, class, job, anything). I know about everything my coworkers hate but hardly anything they like.
My coworkers dont accept my Mexican boyfriend and I want him to come to my company christmas party.? I really dont know what to do. My company christmas party is coming up and my coworkers HATE my boyfriend. They cant stand it that I am white and he is Mexican. He used to work at my company and the other problem is that if I take him, I dont know if we should sit with my friends at one of the "white peoples" table, where they dont like him, or should we sit at one of the "mexican peoples" tables where they like both of us, but I will have to feel uncomfortable with all white people giving me dirty looks. This stinks and it shouldnt be happening. I want to go and have fun with him, but its going to be uncomfortable. Should I not even go? Or should I go without him and have nobody to dance with?
Why does my coworker hate me? I did nothing to her!? ok, I just dont get it. theres this girl I work with, and I hear from alot of people that she hates me. She started after me, and I never really introduced myself to her, But I dont do that to many people, because turnover is so high. Well my other coworkers tell me that she talks about me and says Im a B*tch, and that I was mean to her. lol she doesnt even know me. I go out with a bunch of coworkers on thursday nights, and she didnt go a few weeks ago because I was going. and she actually did come out with us last night and I guess she told people before she went out that she might do it again if I'm not a b*tch to her. lol I have no idea what shes talking about. I just assume that shes jealous of something, and take it as a compliment. Just wonder why she would give someone she hates so much control over her social life like that, lol. Well, anyways... why is she like this and how can I deal with it?

I HATE MY JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!! UGH!!!!!!!!? I've been working at Taco Bell for about a month now and today I had a horrible day there. I wanted to just walk out but I didn't have it in me, so I stuck it out for 3 more hours or whatever. They had me on drive-thru today for the second time, and let me just say I just wanted to scream. On top of my coworkers hating me, I had no help, got bossed around, talked down to, talked about, given the evil eye, yelled at, etc. I try to be a good worker, I try to be fast, I do everything anyone asks me to do, yet I still get no appreciation. Most times, I'll go in and speak to everyone and no one will say anything. Or, I'll walk past someone and say hello and they say nothing. It's almost always my female coworkers. The guys all seem nice, but I feel like the girls hate me. I keep telling myself that it's only temporary, that I come to work, not make friends, but I can't help feeling horrible and wanting to quit each day I go in. It's not even the customers! Usually that's what people complain about, but with me, it's my coworkers. I've never been surrounded by such bitter people. I don't wanna quit because I have no other job, but honestly I don't know how much longer I can do this. My dad doesn't approve of me working there because he thinks "I'm better than that." I'm in my last semester in college and Taco Bell was the only place I could find. This is so depressing.
I hate my coworker more every day? Sitting here wondering if revenge is worth it.
why does my coworker hate me? today at work i was getting pretty bored because i had completed my test scripts and was done reading the analysis of the latest sanford and son episode on the internet, so i was twiddling my thumbs and whilst twiddling decided to rip a quick gag on my cubicle neighbor. i heard him concentrating very intently on his completion of his test scripts due to his heavy breathing and typing on his input device aka keyboard. i stood upon my desk like he-man and slowly peeked over his cubicle and noticed he did not see me so i reached over the cubicle wall and grabbed a ruler in one of his pencil holders and knocked his phone off the holder real hard, and it went flying! whilst the receiver was floating in the air i let out a little "gotcha" giggle and sat back down in my cube and giggled more. my neighbor says, "hey good one you fagrag". i proceeded to cry because he did not enjoy my gag and then my boss comes over and requests i pack my stuff up and leave. do i have a lawsuit?
How do I deal when my coworkers all hate me? I work in a small office. My coworkers -3 - all hate me. I have done nothing to them and tried my best to be personable, nice, and friendly --- yet still they don't like me. Its partially because I stood up for myself and set a very strong boundary with my boss as to what work I could handle. I recently became ill and I just cannot accomplish in a day what my coworkers did when they had this position.... my boss offered the work to my coworkers paid OVERTIME if they wanted to do it - otherwise it would take me a while to complete it..... Instead of being grateful for the opportunity to make extra money in this economy, they are resentful. Its not like it even affects them -- and we are union so they don't even have to take the overtime.... They do things like exclude me in conversations, whey they go buy food and snacks, etc. talk about my situatino in a passive aggressive way --- really loudly so I will hear it. It hurts my feelings, it is rude, and its such a small office that its obvious. I tried to be direct and ask them, what I could do and what I have done to offend them, and they shake their head, and LIE, acting passive aggressive, childish, and tell me that nothing is wrong. I have heard that the minute I walk away, that they are gossiping about me.... They insinuate that I am lazy....when the ironic thing is that they are the types to push the responsibility off on someone else, make personal phone calls all day, slack,etc. I don't do ANY of that....so I feel really amazed that they have the nerve to do this. How do I handle this? Just give up and let them hate me? Thank you.
Luv my job HATE my coworker what should I do? I just started a new job w/a great company. The money is great but my male coworker is an Azz!! When I make suggestions, he laughs behind my back, he burps, ignores me, oggles women etc...EVERYTHING that u r NOT supposed to do in the workplace! He is soooo unprofessional I don't understand how he got hired!! He's been there a year before me. The work is easy, great pay, great location. Should I ignore him or transfer?? I'm not happy because I'm better than this u know?? My boss says "to just get used to him". What would you do??
I think I am starting to hate my job, how do I know if its the job or my coworkers that I hate? I used to joke around with them and it was fun but lately its driving me nuts so I quit teasing them back hoping they would leave me alone. In addition I thought that I would be doing this for a long time and I used to love it but lately I am bored and uninterested. Is it time for a chnge in job or a change in coworkers? Has anyone else gone through or been going through this?
Does my coworker hate me? I'm fifteen and I work shelving books at a library. I work with this guy who shelves the DVDs, and I think he's a year older than me. We're both shy, so at first I thought that maybe that was the origin of our quietness, but it's been three months, and when I say "hi", he completely ignores me and looks at the ground. When we pass by each other, he makes a point of going around me, always leaving like a 3-foot birth. When I happen to be shelving books near where he is doing something with DVDs, he always fins a way to go shelve somewhere else. He's never said two words to me, and he doesn't treat any of the other girls who work there like this, so I don't know what his problem is! I have a reputation for being really smart and I'm not ugly, so could he be intimidated (even though he's a good foot taller than me, and also not ugly)? My mom works with his mom, so could it be my-mom-knows-your-mom weirdness? Or does he just hate me?
Feel so UNHAPPY with my job. Should I quit? I feel so unhappy with my job for a very long time. I work in scrap metal business for 2 years. I started this job with very little training so I learned everything scrap metal from the beginning, almost on my own. I work from home by myself. My boss and my coworkers are in Asia. They never collaborate with me for the time-difference difficulty. I always have to wait till my night time to call and finish what I want to finish during the day. Ex. One time I purposely waited till night time here and called during their lunch hour with questions I need their help. They told me to call back after 2 hours because they were on lunch break. It was very late at night in the US already and they did not even take that into consideration when working with their US office. I got back-stabbed by my only one coworker in the US for something he did wrong. I need prices from my boss every morning but there are times I can't get a hold of him. Sometimes he's even already drunk when he answers the phone. Because the way he's dealing with pricing in the US like this, I lost potential suppliers that took me a while to get them to talk to me. I have to find new suppliers while maintaining the existing ones. I hate cold calling SO MUCH and people in this field are just NOT NICE at all. I hate dealing with dishonest business people and I also hate settling claims with those people when they sell us bad quality stuff that they don't even admit it's their fault. The first year, I told myself to hang in there for a little longer. I did my best to coordinate with my boss and coworkers in Asia. However I still don't see any changes! And it has made me care less and less about my job. I don't even want to spend time finding new suppliers because there's not way to keep them. It's been 2 years. And I really can't and DO NOT want to deal with my job any more. I HATE scrap metal business and I don't want to work in this field ever again the rest of my life. And I don't even see myself working at home by myself my entire life. I am an immigrant and I need to have a healthy social life to keep me going. I become more and more unhappy every day. The only day I look forward to is Friday. I am thinking about quitting even before I find a new job, but I am not sure if it's a good idea. I have some money saved up. No debts. My monthly expenses are car loan, rent, cell phone bill, and food. My husband takes care of the rest of the bills. He has credit card debt and student loan that he needs to pay too so he doesn't have much left after paying all those bills. I have been looking for a new job for a month but have no luck so far. Please give me some advice. I really appreciate your help =))
What shoul I do with my coworkers who hate me? Hi everyone, I'm having a really rough time at work... I'm a 22 year old receptionist who works hard when the work environment is the adequate, and I've been grateful cuz of that at least by myself cuz my boss is another asshole. Well the problem begins with my situation, I have a 4 year old kid and a overwhelming girl (the mother of my son) who, after surviving work, buggs me saying that I don't help her at all, but that's not the main issue... the main is that I HAVE TO WORK with my two coworkers, a lady in her 40's who works in the morning shift and the other is a gentleman (who doen's deserve to be called like it) in his 40's, these two jerks are killing me slowly... I worked at this same hotel a year ago but quited and I decided to come back, my boss was happy about it cuz he knew I was good so he accepted me back again... I was happy by then, did many things without being asked cuz I felt a good environment but my boss never noticed them, as always... as in all the jobs the workers argue with at least 1 person of the staff, so as they saw that I was young and kind with all, they tried to boss me around and I didn't like it so I stood up against their orders and defended myself, since then the lady in the morning doesn't count on me anymore and speaks crap about me with the night guy who totally agrees. With the night guy I argued too cuz he thought that I was keeping all the commissions for myself therefore I was breaking the rules and tried to threat on me but I wouldn't let him either, after that and since then, they try to sink me with their catty comments about my work and it seems ridiculous to me how two old a$$e$ behave like that, and I tried several times to tell my boss but everytime I did he wouldn't believe me and always told me stop acting like a kid and behave and just I can't tell him all the bad things they did cuz that's just not me, they kept commission for the two of them while I wasn't and they still think that I do, I'm not a snitch like them and I'm not a hypocrite... and another thing that stopped me to tell my boss all the truth is that I don't wanna get a bad reputation cuz he's testing me and the one who's gonna give a grade for my graduation and I want to work somewhere else and even work out of my effing country... so if I do it I know something bad can come out of it and I know how to fuck their lifes too... but really fuck them up... I guess there's good in me or I'm afraid of Karma... what should I do?? My boss wants me to keep me around but it's me or it's them and I'm sure they won't go cuz there's not another night guy and the lady is a really close friend of the owner, they are the untouchables... and I'm being constantly attacked, even by the new girl who, I realized yesterday, is now against me cuz of those two freaks. Please helppppp!!!!!! Thnx in advance.
How can you be professional with coworkers who hate you? I am a newbie at a busy starbucks and it has taken me a while to learn how to close the store properly. The other night my coworkers were plainly getting annoyed with me. I actually dont want to speak to any of them anymore but I don't want it to be obvious that I don't like them. The manager is really cool but most of the other workers are snobby, proud little employees who expect me to do everything perfectly. I don't want the manager to see that I don't get along with them and I want to keep my job for a while. Please give me ur input, I am the only poor black person, the only new person in an all white rich area. I don't know I can relate to anyone!
PLEASE ANSWER!!!! Do my COWORKER HATE me!!!!!!!?? work with 14 other people in a small company. 12 of these ppl are girls, we are all fairly young in our twenties. Most of the girls there are nerdy, some are good-looking but most of them were friends before they started working here, from school or other places. Thus, they are a close group of friends. The girl who trained me was really mean to me, talked down to me etc, she is ugly, really. The other were nicer but not that fiendly either. Some would make little comments here or there. There was one cute guy that use to work here and it seemed like he liked me. The mean girl who trianed me seemed jealous. Aftre awhile it semed like even the cute guy started to ignore me and not be as friendly, did he do this just to fit in w/ the other girls??? He gave so many hints, signlas that he likes me then he stopped kinda. The guy is gone now and the girls are nicer to me but what I wanna know is WHY did tghese girls act like this to me??? I'm a nice, pretty girl who was friendly to all. Do these girls hate me? I don't smell, I'm not ugly, in fact lots of ppl comment on my looks. yet why couldn't they be as friendly? I always find it much easier for me to get along with guys? Is there something wrong with me that makes me not get along easily with new groups of girls? I have friends taht are girls, but it might seem like when I meet new groups of girls tey don't seem to like me much. WHY???? Did the cute guy like me???
How bad is it to just quit a job with no warning? (Even if the job is awful)? I hate my job. Actually, I hate my coworkers. There is no talking to upper management about it, as my department is upper management. I've decided I want another job. I'd definitely line up another job first, but how bad would it be to just quit in one day? I've never done it but would LOVE TO. I know for a fact that my bosses cannot give out any info regarding my employment except for dates of employment (I work in HR and I do the employment verifications). So if I find a different job should I just up and quit? It'd feel so awesome to leave them high and dry. They treat me like dirt. As a side note, I just graduated from college and I know that even though I would have left a job after a short time, many employers understand that that occurs in recent grads trying to find their place in the workforce.
i hate my coworker, what should i do? i fucking hate this fat guy, he is an attention whore, he always wants to be first , its never a team effort, but kisses managers ass and makes stupid jokes about me infont of the manager, sometimes i feel like slapping him on a face or saying something mean back...........what should i do? i cant work like that anymore and this idiot is sitting right next to me
Should my husband take coworkers off his phone favorites list? He had an affair with a coworker and is rebuilding trust. I hate seeing women coworkers names next to mine on his favorites. So I nicely told him it bothered me and could he take them off. He got angry and said he has to call them and it's just quicker--Get over it.
My coworkers is trying to kill me (not a joke)? first question is there a chemical or some kind of thing that you can put into someones lunch that would weaken them cause them to loose muscles? why im saying this is because My coworker hates me allot and i saw him in the my locker room and he looked very scared.. later i found marks on my lock as if some one open it :(.. I feel weird after I eat that lunch i bring from home.... What do you think he puts in there? im not being paranoid i have more proof...
why are my coworkers backstabbers? i hate my job i hate my boss i hate my coworkers but im going to quit next friday and slap that two weeks notice on the table and look to my coworker and say WHO CANT LEAVE because the other day he said that i cant leave or i wont i was mad believe me and my boss shes the biggest uglyest ***** ever and everyone else is all kissin *** to her when i cant i mean it i cant i try to but then i stop myself oh and my coworkers are back stabbers my back is bleedin all the time can someone wipe the blood off my back please oh it would be soooo F u C k I n funny if they read this ahahhaahaha no i work with kids I LOVE MY JOB but not them i mean you have to have a good team to work with kids its hard there just jerks i mean i was cool with everyone in the beginning but now were not we dont even talk to each other
I just found out a hated coworker is a sex offender...? Its for a "miscellaneous offense", which probably means he got a BJ from his girlfriend in a parking lot or urinated in public or something small. These registries offend my moral sensibilities, and I believe that karma is a "female dog". That said, the guy is a massive jerk and has a humiliation coming to him. Should I covertly drop the info to someone else or let the info drop out of my mind? This is a true story which has presented me with a fascinating moral conundrum. I've already decided I'll forget this, but i've never had one of these issues fall so close to home before. How would YOU react? EDIT: its on a handful of sex offender registry websites.
I HATE my new job... help!? Week 3 and I'm miserable, unhappy, hate my coworkers and my office environment. It was nothing like what I expected. I can't quit and can't go back to my former employer. I left my former employer due to the fact they were in dire straights financially. I loved my job and my office (I had the office to myself). Now I'm in close quarters sitting in a cubicle with no windows, an annoying coworker much younger than me who's making 30K more than me and my ego has taken a blow. I was a manager at my old job, now I'm and admin to a VP - same pay salary wise and less responsibility that my previous job but it sucks - I'm doing mundane work, sitting in the line of fire of everyone else who has a private office. I have NO privacy and the manager (not my direct boss) is 17 years younger than me making $30K MORE than me and she's a gossipy, bossy, pushy, idiot. I can't stand her nor do I trust her. Basically I can't stand my new job, the environment, my coworkers and the location. I so regret leaving my old job and realize now I made a huge mistake but can't go back. I'm literally unable to sleep at night and sick to my stomach with regret. I have to have a paycheck so my only options are to stick it out or find something else. Even though my old job had it's problems I wish I was back there dealing with that instead of stuck in my new prison. I've cried every day. I'm a single mom so I have to work and can't risk quitting without something else lined up. I'm 47 years old too so it's hard to adjust to not being the boss and working independently to now working with others who make more money and are much younger. I'm beating myself up over leaving my last employer at least if they went belly up I could have claimed unemployment. Now I'm stuck in this new job hell and feel like crap. Going to work each day is like walking in mud with anvils tied to my ankles. Anyone else had new job remorse and survived or lasted long enough to find something better? Any advice on how to survive my situation or stick it out? My boss is decent but this other manager I work with and assist is going to be the death of me. She's insistent on letting me know she's above me and knows more than me and purposely exhibit power over me. HELP!!!!
I hate my parents because of s*x? i also hate my coworkers. and anyone who talks with me and asks me about s*x. They just talk and talk about it without respect to singles like me. Even my parents do it in front of me. And they even use secret words or codes and they think actually think that I don't understand them. but I DO. i am really humiliated when they laugh to me when they think i don't understand what they are talking about. is there something wrong if i am still a virgin??? i'm in my mid 20's and i always believe that i should reserve myself for my future husband so when my guy asks me to do it i don't say yes to him. but if this situation continues i am afraid i may give myself up just to take away the humiliation i experience from other people. so please people can you learn how to respect single ladies (especially if you are the parent)? what can you say? P.S. sex stuff from tv, magazine and the media are fine. what i can't stand is when my family, parents, coworkers, friends laugh at me about it.
Hate my job, should....? I quit. The pay is good, I have benefits, every other weekend off, but I hate my boss (very arrogant), hate my coworkers (mostly women, very cliquey, gossipers, conceded and ghetto). The job itself is already stressful, but to deal with these kinds of people, I don't know if its worth it to continue. Several people have already left because of the same reasons I am giving now (the few that I got along with). Would it be wise to quit, especially due to the economy nowadays. Its impossible to stay away from my coworkers because we all have to work together on different assignments. Its really hard working with such disrespectful people. Its almost as if everyone comes in with problems. I know the job is stressful, but I don't know if I can deal with them amymore. I just take it one day at a time.

How many people reccomend the AMD processor? My coworker hates the amd athhalon processor but i see they're in a lot of the gaming computers.
I hate my coworker! What should I do? I have a coworker that I totally hate and can't stand being around. What should I do to solve this? The truth is I'm just a raging cock so it's no surprise nobody likes me.
Can I ever get better or improve my social skills, i feel disabled... :( ? I grew up with a controlling dad and a mom with somatoform disorder along with true illnesses. My dad was always stressed (with fair reasons) and he would snap at little things. I'm the older child and since i was very little i learned to interpret my dad's gestures, tone of voice, movements etc to avoid getting him angry. I became so good at it that when my little siblings would act childish i would tell them "you need to observe him and then determine if its the right time to ask for something" of course they wouldnt understand. So i grew up like this..and i also grew up behaving like a second mom to them because my mom was always too sick or too mentally weak. I would also think that men are no better than women and my mom shouldnt always obey whatever he said. In general my dad is like a militar, police officer, marine... manager... judge and also a loving dad in one. Now as an adult i have "severe" problems with socializing. In any job i always end up being the boss' favorite employee and the most hated coworker. I am also very strict with my food..vegetarian and i've had eating disorders where control is everything (anorexia) I can be extremely shy but also very rebellious..so my life had been really good and also bad to the extreme. How can my life ever get normal?? and how did my family enviroment affect my life??

Tonight I hate everyone!? I'm unhappy help.? I hate my coworker, a family member, I hate my living situation. I'm unhappy. honestly i feel like i'm resisting change and the more i resist it the worst life gets. I think life just wants me to evolve as a person, become independent, and start taking care of myself (emotionally, mentally and physically.) and to stop worrying about what everyone one else is doing. but i can't stop being anxious and worried that if I move in a certain direction,( i.e. changing careers, following romance, and finding my own place, and letting go) it might not turn out okay. But by not moving, my life just becomes continually worse. I'm in a rut
what would you do in this situation? I have been at my current place of employment for 5 years. In the past year I bid and got a job in a different department. I went from being in a team of 20 people down to 4. I am a grandmother, my new coworkers are almost 20 years younger than me. They all get along well, talk etc. However when I enter our area (all sit in one room, one shared phone) I get ignored. When they need to pass along information to me, instead of talking they instant message me. My previous coworkers all tell me I am no longer my happy cheerful self. My hubby, children, and even previous coworkers hate to call me about anything in this new position as they all have said they are treated with a rude manner and are given very short curt answers. I have talked to my boss various times and he has noticed this as well (so its not in my head). So do you think I should stick it out....or start looking for another job elsewhere?? I still have lunch with my previous co workers on a regular basis-very friendly I have tried the "kill em with kindness" to new group, brought donuts, pastries on many occasions. I have asked if I did something to offend them, I was told no.
i hate my coworker so much? okay i can not stand my coworker he does nothing all day and he is always backed up if things he cussed me out twice he is my team leader to and he yelled at me and i yelled at him back and he said that he will write up me up who should i talk to my boss he is mean and does nothing he stress me out so bad am looking for a new job what should i say to my boss and my team leader is my ex boyfreind to
Don't you hate it when coworkers call in sick at work and you know they're faking it? ...and when it's like four-to-five days at a time, every few months?
I hate my job, my boss and some of my coworkers. How do I not let them bother me? Everyone is so mean when I make a mistake. I feel like I'm being attacked and I'm gonna get fired! I wanna cry after every shift! I'm sorry I'm not perfect and I make mistakes! How can I not let it get me so down? It just sucks the life out of me.
I hate one of my coworkers; the rest are great. Can I invite everyone BUT him to my wedding? He is not my supervisor...he is the same level employee that I am.
What do you really hate about your coworkers? My coworker loves to stir drama. She would spread false rumors to one group of employees about another group, and she would do the same with the other group in order to pit each group against one another. One time they caught her lying about it, and she just laughed and walked away... calling them "crazy"
What's a phrase or saying your coworkers/boss always use that you hate??? My old horrible boss always put "please advise" at the end of emails. I hate it! My horrible former coworker always said "Be suuuuure" she'd say the U in sure way too long.. "Be suuuuure to file these documents." She also said "And too, just so you're aware." That doesn't even make sense.. And too?
Do you hate it when you coworkers bring their kids to the office? i love it when they let them run through the office or play with the keyboards on the computers that are turned on. AWESOME! i'm being sarcastic.
What do you hate the most about your job? Whether you love your coworkers and hate your customers or love your customers and hate your coworkers, there is always something to be hated with every job. So what do you hate the most about your job?
Do you hate it when coworkers get their friends/family jobs at your company? even if the person is qualified, i think employees that have been with the company and who are also qualified feel like they've been betrayed, because they were overlooked for the job.
Don't you hate it when your coworkers think that "your" food is "community" food? "Asking" is one thing. "Assuming" that the other person won't mind is an all together different issue! Just because we work together doesn't mean that you can just have your way with my food! ( ^ _ ^ ) The nerve of some people! By the way? Are you gonna eat that? : )
Is it really wrong to quit a job if you hate it, notcomfortable with coworkers, and ready for something bettr? I've had this job for 1.5 years. There's no advancement, salary is low,,,,and i dont use any of my skills in computer and problem solving. it's just removing staples from docs and organizing . Coworkers are disrespectful as hell, cussin all the time and using disgusting language( they're girls but the disrespectful kind), not following the rules. MOreover, the pay is low and this company doens't care about us temporary workers...they treat us like trash. they put us to work in an unsafe dirty environment while they have a nice office. I'm planning on quitting soon but fiirst i'll ask if i can do it part time so i can begin extensive job search. is it wrong that i wanna quit ?? Some people would argue some money is better than none..BUT i've done that for long..I think it's time for something better. no?
If your boss hates you, your coworkers are back stabbers and you're making good money what do you do? quit or stay? And what if it's causing you enormous amounts of stress????
The girl I like is always angry all she talks about is how she hates her coworkers, what should I tell her? he told me before that she was worse when she was younger, I personally think she still is the same, just probably handles it differently. Anything I could do to help her? I'm getting kind of tired of listening to her talk about how she hates people at work but at the same time, I still care for her and want to help her. Any suggestions?
Why my Christian coworkers are so judgemental? I'm beginning to hate going to work. The majority of my coworkers are christians, I have nothing against christians because I'm catholic, but they formed a 'gang' and they like to gossip and judge people for everything. When they go to church do they even listen to the message of not judging and gossiping?
How come I hate most popular music but very few people like anything I listen to? I can't stand any music on the radio or television. I don't like music being laid in my lap; I like taking time to search for groups and musicians that fit my tastes and stimulate my mind the most. Many of my friends, family members and coworkers don't understand my persepctive, and seem to thoroughly enjoy most of the music I hate. Why is this happening? What makes me so different?
I hate one of my coworkers what can i do? I work in an office with someone who is disrespectful to his seniors absuive to me and gaffs off any orders given to him. I tried so hard to be on his side to like him to help him out when he needed it to be his friend but this has to end i am leaving work stressed out and when i go to work i have to sit next to him and it angers me just to be near him at this point. I am in the Marine Corps and our seniors know hes a messup but we cant "fire" him we have to deal with him, and my seniors are too nice to do anything. My supervisor(cpl) HATES him just like i am starting too but he is saved by the higher ups i tell him what he does wrong and why we have a hard time with him,he doesnt listen he blames his problems on everyone else hes rude and hes disrespectful it angers me, he did something today that had me so upset i almost lost it i dont know how to handle this what should i do, id write more but the character limit is almost up =[
How to patch things up with coworkers? I hate it when my girlfriend belches really loud and she hates my really smelly farts. She likes to have her butt eaten out which I hate to do, and I love getting head which she hates to do. So when she wants her butt eaten out she burps constantly until I give in and do it, and when I want some head, I give her dutch ovens until she gives in. When I shared this with my coworkers, they looked at me like I was crazy. How can I get them to talk to me again?
Does anyone else hate being solicited at work? My boss just passed around an order form for his daughter's school fundraising. I had to waste $12 of my underpaid paycheck on an overpriced pizza package. It was the cheapest option that we would have any use for. Not ordering is not an option if it's the boss. I passed on it politely when two other coworkers did the same thing earlier this year and was labeled not a team player for it. Fine. But you can't do that to the boss. I have no idea whether or not there is a specific policy here, but the unofficial policy is buy or else. I really really hate it. Does anyone else really really hate it? This stuff is expensive and I am a single mom! Wasting money really gets my goat. But it affects your career and coworker relationship (and your job if it's the boss). There ought to be a law against this captive career-affecting coercion on the job. I appreciate Ask M for answering. I just want to clarify that I have yet to see any of these fundraisers go to what I consider a good cause. First, 60% of the money goes to the company, not the school. Second, I don't consider new cutting edge computers at a highly affluent school of rich children who already have three computers in each of their homes, $300.00 Cheerleading Uniforms, or a multi-thousand dollar band trip to Hawaii remotely "good causes". I am simply funding luxuries for rich children whose parents could easily pay the full cost. But they want to say that they are trying to instill a "work ethic" among the children. You know, by having the children pass the order forms off on their parents to coerce their lowly paid employees to pay for. That work ethic.
I hate going to office everyday and deal with born idiot coworkers and their politics is there a way free from office jobs where i dont have to deal with people on the day to day basis?
26!!! And I think I HATE everyone!!! family, friends boyfriend, coworkers?!? I only LOVE my dogs!!! How do I start life over?!?!
What can I do aboout coworkers bringing their sick children to work? What can I do about a coworkers who bring their sick children to the office? I have tried talking to our supervisor, but the supervisor says that if they have no babysitter and are needed at in the office they can bring the kids in.They wont let them work from home when the children are sick,they bring them in and I get sick along with everyone else.I like kids but HATE being sick....last winter and spring I had one cold after another. Other than look for another job, which I am considering, what else can I do? I dont want to be sick for the next 4 months!!
Why does my girlfriend/wife hate so much of life with a passion? When I say hate, I mean hate with a fury. She is the kindest most loving person on one hand, but then lets the pressures of life past and present fester into an explosion of cursing God, work, renters, her life, her son, me, etc. Screaming how she hates each, and wants to just kill herself. I know her pressures are real. I know she's mad at God for being a widow, I know what ever the perticular "trigger" is that day is something anoying. I also know a long running list of bad dicisions is slowly bleeding the life out of her. What I don't know is why she is admired and loved (as wonderful) by so many people at her job putting on one face and attitude and then comes home and is a holy terror to herself and family when she gets home. The customers and coworkers are just shallow aquaintinces, but the ones at home that love and support her (reguardless) are the very ones she is hurting (other than herself). Fortunately she isn't physical with her violence. I'm at my witts end, please help!
How can I let my coworkers know that the food they brought to Halloween potluck is exceptionally craptacular? I reeeeee heeee heely hate pretending like the food they made is any good. I dressed up as a witch!! Oh I also brought the best dessert ever!! Chocolate starfish delights which were a major big hit.
How best to tell my new coworkers they are working with a certifiable crazy person? People I'm sorry I have to break this to you but I hate stupid, lazy people, like to drink beer and am only here until I can get paid to ride my Harley, drink beer and evaluate stripper performances.
Do you LOVE or HATE your coworkers and why?!? Do you love your coworkers...or can you not stand them?! And why? Could your coworkers get you to quit your job/meaning.... if you disliked the people you had to work with enough....could that have you looking for employment elsewhere? And vice versa...if the people were GREAT and you liked them a lot....would that make you want to keep your job.....even if a similar job had higher pay...but crappy people? Thanks for your input!
My coworkers hate me!!!!? I've been reading through the Answer columns and decided to post a question that pertains to my particular situation. I been at my current job for about six months now and there is one particular girl I work with who doesn't like me, I will name her Exhibit A. There are two other girls that work there too and all three hang out together. I pretty much get along with one of the girls because she is the nicest, and I will name her Exhibit B. I have a feeling that Exhibit C doesn't like me either but she smiles in my face. It seems like Exhibit A is gossiping to the other two girls down talking me and things. Since my first day all three girls seem to have some sort of animosity towards me for no reason. Not to be shallow or anything but I am more attractive than them and dress very nicely. I keep to myself and I don't gossip about other people. I just do my work and go home. They are the type of girls that steal company time talking. Since I keep to myself and don't talk much, I guess I gave them the impression that I am a snob or something which is totally from the truth. It seems as if they are trying to mob on me or something. Exhibit A would make snide comments in the background. Right now I just ignore her but tomorrow I am thinking about saying something to her about it. I refuse to change jobs because you can't get away from annoying coworkers. So what should I do to make my work environment more pleasant? What can I do about these girls talking behind my back? Should I talk with our supervisor? Any why are women so jealous towards one another? Thorax it seems as though you are just like them...whenever someone has an ounce of confidence people immediately get classified as 'stuck up'. But when you have no self esteem, it is a problem then too.
How to get rid of clothes I don't need and staple items for my closet? I'm trying to clean up my wardrobe and get rid of some stuff as well as get some essential staples I need but I'm lost as to what I should get rid of and what I should keep. The apartment I live in right now has a closet on one whole side of my bedroom wall, and I am going to be moving out next fall and don't want to have to go through it then. I am overwhelmed with shoes, jeans, shorts, skirts, jackets, camis, work out clothes, pajamas, bags, etc. So, basically I have 3 wardrobes for 1 person it seems. Most of my friends aren't into clothes that much, but I asked my coworkers who share my love of clothing and they said they have the same problems. I have such a hard time getting rid of clothes because I always think "there will be that one time I will want to wear it and won't have it around, or I'll need that color and it will be gone". I do know my style though: I generally like to dress a little more casual. I wear more sporty jackets/ outfits, day to day than I do cute and hip clothes. I don't like graphic tees but i do have a few. And I DO have a lot of cute and dressy clothing. Although I don't dress up that much I prefer to. I just don't live in an area where it's normal to see girls dressed up cutely. So, how do I pick and choose what to keep and get rid of/pack away? (I think I would feel better just packing it away but we will see). And please don't just say get rid of the things you don't wear, cuz I've tried it and it never works! I have such an attatchment to my clothes. And, is there a way I could organize my shoes for a small closet? Because while most of my shoes don't get worn all the time, I have worn at least all of my shoes once this year. Secondly, as I said before- - What staple items should I have in my wardrobe?? I'm 21 yrs old, not yet a working girl so please don't say trouser pants because I don't work in a place I'm required to wear them, and even if I was I would opt for a pencil skirt first, I hate the way trousers look on my body.
What is a good excuse for not attending a coworkers baby shower? I told her like 5 hours before that I would, but the truth is, there is a girl there that I just hate and she knows that and I didn't feel like going, it would be majorly uncomfortable.. Any suggestions?
I hate the sound of my coworker's voice. What should I do? Whenever my coworker speaks it makes me crazy... like really, really crazy. I can't stand the sound of her voice. It's high and squeaky and she talks really fast. I work in retail so I have to be friendly to customers but after about an hour of listening to her, I'm usually in a really foul mood. I used to love my job but I hate it since she started working there. What should I do?
Do you love or hate your job and why? I am in the mortgage industry and well...it's not the most enjoyable job around, but happy that I have a job and not out driving an ice cream truck or picking up trash (not saying that those jobs are not needed and serve a purpose). Why do you love or hate your job? Your boss, management, red tape, coworkers, job environment.
What music/movies/tv shows do you hate that everyone you know seems to love? I HATE Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, All the Lord Of The Rings movies, the tv show Arrested Developtment, The Transformers movie, the show the Office, and 24. I am always the odd man out since all my friends/family/coworkers love these things. How about you all?
Does anyone else hate their job as much as me? I was at a company for over 5 years and left for more money at another company. I now hate my job, my boss and my coworkers, and I wanna go back to my old job. Does anyone have any similar experiences? What did you end up doing?
