Yall ever hated a coworker so much because they’re so difficult to operate with??

I wish for to truly punch him in the mouth. I experience such as when individuals are remote they get very carried away with themselves.

I have a coworker that is painfully incompetent, and thank god and every deity out there that she put in her 2 weeks notice today. Yesterday she said she had to leave early because she keeps burping. (?) And since we work in a nursing home, she can’t be doing that in front of...

Two weeks must feel like the longest countdown ever, but at least there’s an end in sight 😅 Some of those excuses sound straight out of a sitcom.

Yes, had a bully Karen with a group of codependents to back her up. I could do nothing right, she was just seething with hatred. I'm glad I don't have to deal with her anymore.

Had 1, except she was Aly. She would be miserable, then when she found a target she would set her sights on them and was fine with everybody else. Once her target was me. I even left the company and she still had me as a target because I was across the hall. It was only af...

You would just love my current boss. She literally timed my coworker because he was in the bathroom too long for her liking. She then proceeded to berate him in front of me and other coworkers. Honestly, I think he just had a stomach bug that day. Anyways, everyone is afraid t...

When I worked at the nursing home, I worked with a woman that I referred to as "Blind Monkey Barbie". The woman was useless. On more than one occasion I said that I would have liked to shove her into one of the industrial washing machines and turn it on.

She was loud, and stupid, and bigoted, and mean, and as soon as the boss who was keeping her on retired, she got a different job. She fully expected the place to fall apart without her, when in reality dividing up her tasks barely added 20 minutes to anyone's day.

When I worked at Casey's a few years ago, it was my kitchen manager, who would leave to go home to "make sure her family had dinner" and I would be left alone in the kitchen. She made sure to make my delivery orders last priority, would flip the salad bar at close, so id have ...

My least favorite co-worker was a guy that I called Milkweed (not to his face) because he had a tattoo on the back of his neck that said "milkweed." He also had a tattoo tear, which is supposed to mean he had killed someone. I doubt it. I was 20, and I think Milkweed was clos...

I have had coworkers I hated to have to work with or deal with. However, can't say that it became a personal hatred. It takes a lot of effort to give someone that much negative space in your head.

Not a co-worker. But a supervisor, yes. They were bad at communicating expectations, and I couldn’t ask for clarification or make mistakes without them yelling at me. They also practiced favoritism with us workers. I took my job seriously. I was on-time for my shifts and ne...

Remote work “attitudes” function somewhere in between in person and anonymous internet posting. That said, many people are difficult to work with and it has more to do with what the workplace culture rewards and/or allows, regardless of physical location.
