Well......keep following the rules But Do Not and I repeat Do Not follow your co-workers around telling them how they are not following the rules and also don't be a "tattle tale".   Nobody likes working with someone like that. And as Crazy as it sounds just because you follow all the rules to a T it doesn't mean that You are more productive or a more valuable employee than someone who may bend them sometimes. Just focus on your own work and what you do and you won't have time to worry about who is following the rules.    Good Luck.

Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer.\n\nbefriend this person, don't complain about them any more, and wham when ever they say  bad - you can casually mention to the boss which is negative about the job or your boss let your boss know :)  Yeah be a backstabber/brown noser

Oh yes, I have had one in almost every job I've had. They are called "a pain in the neck!" and are found in every place of work. I try not to let them wind me up and ignore them as much as I can. Another good tactic is to say, " Yes your right - what a brilliant way of doing it!" and just continue to do what ever you need to do to get the job done properly. Basically, these people are insecure and need to feel that they are better than anyone else.

Firstly you should know that when anyone behaves like that they are being completely unprofessional. Never ever ever ever get drawn into that kind of behavior. You cannot win an argument by yelling. Remain calm, look the person straight in the eye, smile, if you can, and say.. I get the feeling that you are upset, would you like to talk about it, I am sure that whatever it is, it can be resolved.  This will catch them completely off guard and will probably get them to stop behaving badly.\nIf it is a job that you don´t care about, and you were going to quit anyway, let him have it..say something like..Who do you think you are talking to,you cannot speak to me like that.  If they have a superior even better, add that you will be speaking to thier superior. Stand up for yourself, because if you don´t, you will run the incident over and over and over in your mind wishing you had said this or that.. but never lower yourself to their level.  Stay calm.   and then slash his or her tires..lol just kidding

ignore her and let her be, eventually management will be fed up with her and can her @$$, in the mean time you have to put up with it. they cannot just fire someone without proper documentation or else they can be sued.

lol...I  know  people can be so rude....but be better than them! Just say something that will put them in their place...."please don't judge, by what you don't know!"  or "Don't you think I would rather be walking if I could so I wouldn't have to hear people like you make such rude comments about me in front of my children, thank you and YOU have a wonderful day!"

I would speak with HR.  It sounds like your supervisor is in need of some social training about respecting people.

first you have to come up w/ answers to all of their excuses.  spend a little time on their side before just going after them.  offer them advice and options on how to best solve the problem.  you also have to learn to remove yourself from feeling guilty.  know that you did not put them in the situation they are in and also know that you are doing a job and it is nothing personal.  there should be training aids provided by your company to counter any response given by a customer, check into that.

Make a list of what makes you unhappy about those people.\n\nMake another list of what makes you love your job.\n\nIf the list of things you love is longer than the list of unhapiness, you should just find a way to get beyond the personalities of the people you work with. Stick to policies, procedures and principles. Smile at everyone and make like they don't bother you, but just try to stay as uninvolved with the personal lives and other people's personal problems. Do the best you can do at your job and maybe/hopefully, you will be there long past those people or maybe/hopefully, they will adjust their attitudes so that they are not so bad to work with.\n\nIf the list of unhappiness is longer than the love, stay there until you find a better job that you think you might be able to eventually love so much.

This is indeed an awkward situation. I also never know what to do because sometimes it would be an insult because they don't want to be treated the same as the rest of the staff because they own the place, and so because of that I usually don't!

Just be really rude and sarcastic to him/her.  They'll get the message.

Be frank with them and tell them to grow up! Tell them that you are an adult and can speak to whom ever you please. Let them know that they are also putting unneeded stress on you at work and that is not fair to you.\nThe problem they have are between the two of them and they need to quit bringing you in the middle of it. Tell them you aren't going to stand for it any longer...end of discussion.\nIf necessary, go to management about it. If they get upset about it, tell them that you didn't know what else to do and that you deserve to come to work without having to deal with their crap.

ignore them or just simply tell them to leave you alone. if that doesnt work then maybe just giving the cold shoulder will give them the hint.

It is them being rude. How you should respond depends on the context. Is it going on during "water fountain" chat or during business meetings. Is it your boss or someone at your level or below that might be competeting with you. Is it going on with your boss present or not.\nThese issues will make a difference on how you should approach this.
