Can you work well with a person who you dislike?

Your dad is right to a certain extent for there are those that we may not like but they are good workers and can get the job done there for you look past the dislikeing part and get the job done that much faster. I have been there and I actually learned to start appreciateing the person more no matter if the person did things to make me not like him/her in the first place.

Hi MizukiZHR, currently i'm working with few people who i dislike also. However, there is not much problem occurred during the work. Might be this could be most of the time i only keep silent and do my part only. I dislike them is not because they bully me, but they will keep saying something insult your feeling when you work for them. Therefore, i did feel that: silence, sometimes is the best solution.

mizukizhr hi No I could not work wellwith a person whom I disliked as the person was lazy and a whiner who wanted to do everything but what she had hired for. I finally blew up and said i will do my own work, but I will not do yours. do your own assignment or else I will tell the manager. and idid'and she was ultimately fired and I was not.

I'm fortunate in that there is no-one I really dislike at my workplace. There are some people who I am less comfortable working with and I find that I can work better when they are not around as I'm not waiting for them to be condescending or pushy. I find I can work better in a more friendly atmosphere.

I agree with your father. Dislike somebody can't affect their cooperation.

Oh,I'm so sorry.Things like that never have happened on myself.So I have no suggestion to tell you.You can explore it yourself.hahahaha

Well , I think therearevery few people in the world whom we like. that means we don't like most of the people in our surrounding.so we have to adjust with them.

In the past I have not been able to work with people I don't like. It made for a very stressful work place. I don't hide my feelings well and that may be part of the problem. That was a few years ago though, I may handle the situation different now that I am a little older.

I have a co-worker that I really dislike. He seems to dislike everyone he works with, too. I think that the feeling is mostly mutual. He always wants to take charge, and when I ask him if he needs help, he says no. Then, he will wait until the very last moment to ask for help, usually when he is trying to get a dog back into its run. I think one day, I might just pretend that I didn't hear him and let him handle the situation himself. The dog isn't going to be harmed, it's just going to be loosed within a closed-off room. A lot does get done, because I usually leave him to his own business, and go find something else to do. There is plenty of things to do at work, anyway.

My dad often told me such stories too, because I used to say I didn't work with those I didn't like. I think work is totally different from life. I really want to live with those I like. In the past, if I hate someone, I cannot even stay with him for more than five minutes. But now it's better; at least I can work with them. However, I am facing the problem now--I have to live with those I dislike, maybe detest. Someone in our dormitory is talking badly behind my friend's back, and I hate her really. I cannot stand how to forgive this kind of people, though my friend says she's OK with that. It is because of my friend's kindness that makes me detest this mean girl more. Every time I go back to dormitory, I want to get out. I don't want to see her, and I am considering moving out. So I think working with them is OK, but it is absolutely impossible to me to live with them.
