The Truth About Annoying Coworkers

Survive

This week I want to share with you an interesting infographic titled “The Truth about Annoying Coworkers”. This infographic has shared with me by the graduate school at Olivet Nazarene University. Most of us work at least 40 hours a week and this means that we see our coworkers more than we see our family. As a result of spending too much time with our coworkers, we get annoyed by some of their behaviors. According to a survey made with 2,000 Americans, 100% of them get annoyed at work. 73% of employees are annoyed by up to 5 of their coworkers on a regular basis, and almost 80% of the workforce has confronted a coworker about their annoying behavior. Healthcare and insurance industries have the highest number of annoying coworkers. Professionals working in fashion/art and retail are most annoyed on a regular basis. See below for the rest of the results and think about whether you also get annoyed by your coworkers.
