Back in the last 10 years, I worked in a construction firm. Everything was going smooth except this lady against me. And when I confronted her, she reply "Everywhere you work is the same, if you don't work here" Then I was puzzle at a moment. After that, all the place I worked is indeed full of crap people. What does she mean actually? What is the hint she was giving me at that time? I really want to know.

Ignore them. Whenever you found someone like her just ignore them. You will feel hurt if you decide to get argue with people like them. But if you can't bear and stand with it no more then just talk back to her like my sister did to her colleague. Regarding to what she said it is wrong. Not every place you work you will face the same thing. It is just how the way we adapt ourselves with the work environment.

Yes I can bear the arguement but cannot take the noise she made with the doors, chairs and files. She likes to bang it on the table and close the door like an earthquake is coming.

Yes,it ruined my day. I was so happy going to work and suddenly when I arrived in the office everything change and I was no idea how to escape. One word, self-employed is better. You got the most important thing is freedom!

Yes, I used to have such colleagues as well. They will slammed, bang and make so much noise either the way they speak or act. She thinks like she is the boss so they can do whatever they want. Simply said they are people who likes to destroy and ruin other people working life.(^^)

She sounded a bit bitter. I'm not sure what she's up against you but she do sound like a bitter person.

Bitter? She also made my life miserable with her attitude in the office.

Yes. She made your life miserable because she's a bitter woman. Bitter person tends to vent their anger and frustrations toward other people. It's not a very good attitude! That's why i said she's bitter coz i know she's making your life miserable and she can't seem to find good things in life.

The work may be the same but each job is different, different location, different coworkers, different bosses. If you make sure you do the very best job you can, then you will do well. If you happen upon a job where you connect with the other people think of this as a great bonus. Blessings

It all depends on where you work. Some offices do have a nice environment to work in with good and understanding colleagues, but it's always the case when some newcomer comes in and wanting to change things to suit them. Then a commotion would start and the environment would start to change. Yes, I have experienced that before.
She's probably saying that because she wants you to know that she's right. But that's not true if you choose not to believe what she said.
If you come across people like such, the are only 2 choices for you. Either you just ignore her and continue with your work or just quit the job and work elsewhere.

She probably ment that no matter at what working place you are working it is all the same kind of people good and worst. But there are working places with good people having concern for one another. Who show respect and are really friendly all over. There are even CEO who can be wonderful for their workers. You should not put up with rude people every day.

Now I understand. I thought she meant that my attitude is bad that I can't even manage to stay at one place peacefully.

Sounds like BS justification for being horrible. "It's the same everywhere, so put up with me being a total cow."
Of course, it's not like that everywhere. There are some wonderful companies around and some great colleagues (and yes, even a couple of decent managers). She just wanted you to believe it's always horrible so that you'd take her crap without complaining.
Personally, I love putting people like that back in their place.

Hi, Wongchoiyee!
No. I don't think that people from other companies treats their co-employees like that. Maybe she just don't like you or maybe she was treated the same way she treats you in her past and now, she wanted to have a revenge on you.
Just treat her nicely. Maybe she will change her treatment on you. :)
