Ever wonder what kind of workmate you are? Now, it depends on what kind of office you work in.
My last job was in a large office. There was the heavy breather; the nosy mare; the loud laugher; mr.innuendo; the lovely girl who is friends with everyone; the mammy; the loud chewer; the sporty woman; the networker; the one who makes a fool of themselves on nights out; the slacker and, the one who gets away with doing nothing.
I like to think of myself as fairly normal, fairly easy to get along with and a good worker. Although, I often wonder, as I label workmates, as above, what they would label me as. Perhaps, a know it all or the moody one in the mornings?
Where do you draw the line when it comes to workmates to real mates? I don't think you can ever truly be friends with people you work with. You have similar interests through your work and I think if you are too good as friends you can almost end up slacking or having too much craic in work. Having said that, I have kept in contact with three good friends from three previous jobs.
I really hope, if I have any annoying habits I don't unleash them in the workplace. The more life experienced I get, the more I realise that we should keep work and social separate and that it is fine to feel that way.
