Workplace is always like jungle to get lost and find urself either fighting hard to survive or just land up no where. A place which brings a bunch of people together in jumble of many different personalities.
Few most prominent kind of people that I have come across …..
Yapping Queen
Let's start with most affable coworker. The chatterbox usually means well. She is friendly and wants to share all her thoughts (every last one of them) with you. She isn't trying because harm to anyone ... her incessant talking is just keeping you from concentrating on your work. Its fun to have such colleague but I would say … better to be yapping queens some other time
Gossip Sachet
Gossiping is of course the most convenient part of activity for few entertaining characters in office. They claim themselves to be the favorite of the “BOSS”, so loaded with unreliable information. Best way to put it few colleagues who are best to used to “spread the news”, when things are to be confidential. Ideal way to create an synergy with such set of people enjoy the gossip but not be part of the spread the new exercise ever.
Complaining Bundle
There's always one person in a group who can never find anything about which to be happy. If she's not complaining about her health or her family, she's complaining about her job, the company, or boss. Of course, some of her complaints may be legitimate, but the incessant whining is getting on your nerves. Generally, the complainer isn't looking for advice so offering it probably won't do any good. Change the subject whenever the bellyaching begins. Your colleague should get the hint after you do this repeatedly. However in my past I realized the easiest way of dealing such difficult person is by getting personal. May you can discuss your personal interest or creating an emotional connect which might make him people he knows you better than anybody (which is of course not true). Follow up on your previous discussion which might have created an interest in you (observe such weak links).
The Delegator
In almost every workplace you'll find someone who wants to share his work with his colleagues. I am not talking about those who have a legitimate reason to delegate work to others, for example managers or team leaders. I am speaking of those who either can't do all the work they have been given or don't want to do it.
The Credit Grabber
The credit grabber does not acknowledge any help she receives from others. She accepts all the praise for a project without mentioning that she didn't do it alone. The first time this happens, consider it a mistake. Mention it to your colleague and ask her to let others know about your participation. If she doesn't, or if this happens again, make sure you let others know about the role you played in getting a project done. Then, unless you are mandated to work with this person, refuse to help out again.
