Whining Co-Worker
by Shelly
(Chicago, Illinois)
It's really hard to work with somebody that whines constantly. I know because I have to work with someone who looks for a reason to whine and complain.
Things aren't perfect at my place of employment, but there are other places that are alot worse.
When this person starts whining, the rest of us usually ignore her. Sometimes it gets really bad and we just tell her to stop whining.
She usually denies that she's whining, but when everyone else agrees she usually stops for the moment. Then she sulks for the rest of the day.
It's a cycle that gets repeated over and over. I don't know if there is any help for this person, but it sure would be nice for the rest of us if she would just stop altogether.
