This is a question Bastard Colleagues

You've all known one. The brown-nosing fucker, the 'comedian', the drunk, the gossip and of course the weird one with no mates who goes bell ringing, looks like Mr Majika and sports a monk's haircut (and is a woman).

Tell us about yours...

Thanks to Deskbound for the idea

Hey you lot!
Am I the only person here who's worked only with mostly middle-of-the-road types? Some a bit annoying or overbearing but mostly OK? Some of them I even got on pretty well with. Does anyone else share this phenomenon?

Head hunters
Must be the time of year but I'm getting a lot of calls about other jobs. After reading this QOTW I'm not tempted to move given in the last 10 years I've only really come across a couple of bastards and I just ignore/move away from them.

Who cares if they pay less than the competition, it's a small price to pay if you're happy

Well,
Having had dozens of jobs since my first in...well, it must have been about 1977, the vast majority of folks are fine. But the odd few do make a less than favourable impression. It does help if you have a fairly easy going nature and can look on the funny side. Unfairness though can eat away at your soul.

I'd agree
Apart from a few exceptions, the vast majority of folk I've worked with have been fine.

I think mostly it's what you make of it. I've probably been as guilty of winding up colleagues in various ways as they have with me. I suppose the only good sign is that a lot of colleagues have become great friends over the years.
