Do you always hate or end up hating the people you work with or most of them?

No, I usually liked most of the people I worked with.

Some of them became very good friends because we had common obsessions, which is why we worked there in the first place.

The people I had issues with usually had issues with me first. They were always mid-level management types, whose sphincters clenched anytime somebody did something differently than they were used to.

They would say things like "I want workers who think outside the box" and then proceed to crush anyone who exhibited creativity or a free spirit or proffered an idea that didn't fall in line with their grand plan.

Overt the years I've had several clueless managers who made me pull my hair out. I guess that's inevitable. Between you and the bosses, they choose to please the bosses first.

my boss says that we are a team and work together-but some are exceptions and do not have to-like his favorites and they get special treatment and get away with not following the rules but I get yelled at and told to be quiet when I have information to share-they do nt want to hear from the defective employee

Well, I generally end up disliking most people I meet, but I actually do like most of my coworkers. I got lucky to work in an office that has a lot of intelligent and motivated individuals who actually care about doing their job correctly. This makes it much easier to like them.

yes, saying you want your employee to exhibit creativity or initiative and then punishing them when they do it seems common. My work has those people in it.

the people I have issues with are the people that say "do that job like this" and then months down the track tell you off for doing the job the exact way they told you to do it all that time ago.
Also those people that spread rumours about you behind your back. and those people who come to work with the primary goal of making life worse for everyone (these people also seem to be the boss' favourite).

The people that I don't like at work are the same people I don't like outside of work. As tweety said, people that spread rumors, start arguments, and organize people against other people are the worst for me.

I've liked most of my coworkers over the years, and especially like the ones I have now. Why?

Not hate them per say but I take a while to get use to and feel comfortable around new people.

I love the people I work with actually. They're some of the nicest and most intelligent people I've ever met.

I always enjoy getting to know the people who I work with but then once I know them I get bored and I have to get a new job to meet new people.

I can't ever remember hating anyone I've worked with. Although, there has been a certain amount of conflict in the past.

What did u do in the office job?

What I do not like is Bosses who think that anyone who is creative and thinks outside of the box must be a mentally ill deviant who should be fired and put on disability.

My last boss was really good. He was a believer in minimal work and maximum breaks.

That suited me fine.

Most bosses believe in the work ethic that the job should be as back breaking as possible.

I work in university administration. My particular office writes and enforces policy for academic appointees. It can be very detailed and requires a lot of memorization and analysis.
