Stop Complaining about the Folks on Your Job!

Published by tarchris at 11:48 am under Complaints Edit This

We all have difficult people at our jobs. Whether you work at home or not but no one cares about these people. So, I don’t want to talk to anyone about what these coworkers are doing. After all, I don’t know these people, they don’t know me. I don’t have the power to change your situation and I don’t want to hear about it.

Just the other day, my friend called me complaining about XYZ who was mean to her at work. Apparently this person doesn’t like my friend and she caught her gossiping to another coworker about my friend’s outfit. Well, my friend was so distraught about this.

She felt all bad inside and basically couldn’t believe that someone at work would not like her outfit.Hello people, you go to work to ummmmm work not socialize. If you like your darn outfit then that should be good enough. Who cares if someone else doesn’t like it? Jeez.

Instead of worrying about a coworker not liking something of yours, you so need to get over, move on and don’t care.Do not tell me about it. I have my own problems, real problems, and I don’t want to hear about your purple pants fiasco.  Not only did this friend put me to sleep talking about their coworker not liking their outfit but it made me realize how trivial people can be.

As adults we should have learned by now that not everyone is going to like you. In fact, there will be many people who don’t like you at all. And, that’s OK. It doesn’t matter one bit. As long as you like yourself, that is all that matters. You are the one that is in control of your own feelings and if you allow someone to spoil your mood because of their dislikes then “shame on you.”

Enough said!
