Coworkers. There kinda like family. And sometimes, we see them more during any given week than we do our own family. And Lord knows, when it comes to families, we all have our “Uncle Ernie” and “Aunt Edna”…you know, that couple that drives you absolutely bonkers! We have those folks at work too….the ones you can’t count on, the one’s that do as little as possible to get by, the “me” players on the team, ect. ect. And some of these workers are just flat out rude. Which brings me to the question: What’s the rudest thing people do around the office?
That was the question to a recent survey, and here are the top responses:
1. Gossiping about other coworkers, 28%.
2. Not responding to calls or emails in a timely way, 21%.
3. Playing around on their phones during meetings, 16%.
4. Running late or missing meetings, 12%.
5. Not giving other people credit, 12%.
6. Criticizing other people publicly, 11%.
0% said that they work at a place where no one ever does anything rude.
