I work with this woman who is very dramatic and self important but to make work life smooth I act like she's interesting and I enjoy talking to her. HR and most of the staff complain about her negativity, loud mouth and rudeness but since I have to work closely with her, I'm a temp she's an employee, I pretend I actually care. How about you? Who do you pretend to like to make your life easier?

Before I quit my job a few weeks back, it was the exact same situation with me and my boss....
She was a relentless complainer, and I would just smile and complain along with her....
Don't get me wrong, I love a good whinge, but is it really necessary to bring up the faults of every living and non living thing on this earth?!
It really gets you down after a while.....

Also a co worker. In reality she drives me flurkin' nuts! She is a martyr, always thinks she is right when she rarely is and because she is a bit older than me and way older than the rest in the department she thinks that gives her a right to automatic respect. WRONG!

My brother in law, biggest loser on the planet as a father and a husband. My sister loves him and I love my sister so I keep my mouth shut and just smile and nod when he speaks. My best friends boyfriend as well, I just find him very arrogant and disrespectful.

I'm in the same boat, the only time I actually care to be nice when I'm really not interested is at work...because they pay me and they pay me well...therefore, I must behave. But trust me...my personal life...it's a WHOLE other story, "ask me if I care.."
