Joy of colleagues

Is it easy for you to build relationships with your colleagues?

  • Yes
  • Sometimes, depends on my co-workers
  • No

Everyone who works knows how important is to have good relationships with colleagues, because we want to work in a calm and friendly atmosphere, to come to the workplace and work with professionals who are ready to help and give the necessary advice. 

When the relationships with colleagues are bad, then work turns into a test where everyone tries to spoil the life of the team and intertwined in office intrigues. Also, there is often a struggle between staff and superiors, as well as among ordinary colleagues. Since most of the working people have to spend a significant part of their time in the team, the friendly relations with their office comrades are half the success for normal work. And no matter what the team is, one needs to fit in, since working day-to-day in a company of people unpleasant to you is, at least, difficult, and does not bring any satisfaction. It’s much more pleasant to be in friendly relations with colleagues, spending time together at lunchtime and turning to each other for help at some work-related moments. 

While reaching such relationships with colleagues is easy for some, for others it is a virtually impossible task. So, is it easy for you to build relationships with your colleagues?

How do you treat new hires?
  • I make them feel welcome and go out of my way to help whenever possible
  • Impartially, I don’t treat them any differently than I would the rest of my colleagues
  • I distance myself and avoid communication
  • As a potential threat to my position, I’d try to sabotage them
  • I boss them around and/or try to give them some of my workload
