What kind of colleagues do you have in your workplace? Those whom you form cliques and go for lunch together, those you complain to about your boss or those whom you meet up to go shopping even on weekends? For me, I don't make close friends out from colleagues. Maybe it's some kind of self-defense or you may call it, wary of others. Most of the things a working person talks about are related to work. You may not mind your friend from another company rattling on and on about her office flirt or that pain in the ass from her department. But, how can you stand listening to anything relating to work on the pathetic 2 off days?! Also, I cannot live my personality in front of my colleagues; I find it weird. Imagine one moment you are giggling over the hot bum next door and the next you are sternly discussing about meeting the next month target over the board meeting.... and the person whom you are questioning about the slow output is your "friend". There is a limit to how friendly you can go with a colleague.
I have this pair of colleagues in my department... both about the same age as me... different gender... both wear glasses... and both whom I dislike! They are always going for secret tea-breaks together, gossipping to each other and when the girl comes back to work on a quiet saturday, he would sit at another table (not his usual table) next to her with back facing each other and happily talking away, oblivious to the rest of the world. Sounds romantic right? Very sweet right? Happy for them to have found each other out of the 4.2 million population in the small office right? BUT... halt! The guy is married! And the girl is a religiously devoted person, or so it seems then. Is it utterly disgusting?!
One type of people in the workplace whom I detest are those with no email etiquette. Those who command people to do things without a word of thanks, those who have no manner to sign off properly or those who purposely cc to your boss some minor mistakes someone did and putting the person down in the email in front of the whole list of colleagues just to show her capability.
Another type of hateful people are those who don't pay when we eat in a group. I have this colleague who simply take for granted when someone offers to buy drinks for the group when out for lunch. When most people starts to dig into their pockets for coins, she pretends to be unaware of what is happening. I can't stand such people! One word to describe them - DIRT cheapo.
All the examples mentioned above is the girl who is having the scandalous relationship in my company... B.I.T.C.H.
