Here’s How To Deal With Annoying Co-workers by Uranus1: 1:53am On Jun 06, 2018
We understand there is a thin chance you’ ll get along well with every one of your colleagues . There ’s definitely the one who talks incessantly, the ones who can ’t clean up after themselves and the ones who pass responsibilities to you.

Fortunately , there are a couple of steps you can take while dealing with the most annoying of co -workers .

Avoid them
This may seem impossible since you see the person on a daily basis but you will be surprised that if you actually make a conscious effort , you will noticeably have lesser interactions with this person.
Even if the person parades the office , be too busy to stop what you are doing. “When you reduce your interaction with someone it often improves your interaction with them .”

Compromise
Try to meet your co - worker halfway and be open to his or her own way of doing things. You may just be able to deal with it.
Do not insist on always getting it done your way . After all , you may be working with this person for weeks , months and maybe even years .

Remember, it is just professional
No matter how upset you get , remember you only have to deal with them until work closes and you are not going to take them home with you at the end of the day .
The realisation that it is only temporary helps you ignore and tolerate annoying as well as irritating situations. That , in turn , helps you control your temper .

Stay positive
Try to stay positive despite the insanity. We understand that is almost impossible but you are more likely to get cooperation from other co -workers this way.

Being a Good person is like being a goal keeper. No matter how many goals you save, people will still Remember only the one goal you missed. Never be discouraged by what people say about you, don't mind them. Remember out of dirty soil germinates a good seed, out of hot fire the food is cooked, Even a black colour is the most favourite colour to others. *For your own information*, smart people don't touch charcoal but they eat what has been Cooked on charcoal, so some people may dislike you but Need your Help. Never lose hope but continue doing good to people.
Better days ahead..

Co workers are like the proverbial fly perched on a man's scrotum.
You don't want to leave it lest it bites
You don't want to smash it lest you do damage to your balls

You are not taking anything out of this world. Stop concentrating on material wealth. Rather,

Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and He will give you everything you need.

Anyone outside the corporate world will not understand what people go through seriously.

While you leave home for work, you are also thinking of possible ways to maneuver past troubles with colleagues.

Senior colleagues are even worse to deal with.

It's like you are in war zone. You either fight smartly or be killed. Those in small organizations like one-man business are in worse conditions undecided
