Do not think highly of yourself, even you not around, as before you work here, the office still managed perfectly well and grown too. I believe people in there ready do their work in a freestyling way, they are not lazy or incompetence, they are damn smart, it is the culture of the office that bring glory and richness to the boss, why should the boss complain further. Accept the culture, work smartly, be like them, and you can be sure you work long, but if you cannot fit in, then resign lor.Originally posted by nuchio:i am new in the office, for 4 months. i really hate working with the colleagues here.
first of all, they really treat the office like their own home, literally, by putting their stuff all over the office. eg. the umbrella on the bookshelf by the main door. any visitor who walks in can see that umbrella on the shelf. i have told the girl that it is not nice but she says she puts it there in case she forgets to bring it home. but then she forgets all the time - she could have put it in her handbag right?
the office is in a mess - nobody does filling. past correspondences are put into the drawers without organizing it until the drawers are full and then move the whole stack to elsewhere in the office.
nobody cleans their desk or wash their cups properly (all full of brown stains). nothing is organized and nobody can find anything.
the office secretary is the champion. when she cannot find what she needs since she puts stuff everywhere, she just orders for more. e.g. stationery.
if that not enough - they are on msn and surfing half the time.. esp when my boss is not around, it is like a party.
nothing is told to my boss - so he assumes everything is ok. they hide stuff from him. also he dont check on them or ask them to tidy up.
i have really had it working with lazy and incompetent people.
i won't join them - i have work to do and want to be responsible. is it wrong?
so whats next for me here?

Anyway since they are lazy and you are hardworking, do you think you have a chance to get your boss's attention and promote you.. then revamp the entire work place loh.
100% correct.....TS, dun expect them to change. The more u expect = the more fustration u get & angrier each day & it'll become like ur the one who at fault eventually.Originally posted by BadzMaro:U keep talking about not feeling comfortable and stuff..
but by ur description of the environment , i think they are pretty comfortable with the environment. So its not them that has a problem.. its u. U are too hardworking and too tidy. They dont like you. So change. Adapt. Become lazy. n make the entire office.. ur home.
Sorry to say .. but ur topic should be.. 'HOW DO I ADAPT TO MY NEW WORKING ENVIRONMENT.'
is the company in crisis? if nothing wrong then jz let them do as they like...Originally posted by nuchio:i am new in the office, for 4 months. i really hate working with the colleagues here.
