Tell them you have deadlines to meet and that you really can't stand around and talk to them. Try to keep working the best you can. Ask them if they would please let you get your work done and maybe you could arrange to meet them after work.

Have you already talked to the person about it?  Simply take that person aside and say something like, "Hey, <insert name here>, I noticed that earlier when we were talking you touched me.  I appreciate your friendly attitude, but I am uncomfortable with being touched like that.  I also feel that you stand too close to me.  I would feel more comfortable if you didn't come within 2 feet of me and if you wouldn't touch me at work.  Would you please stop?"  It's entirely possible that this behavior is simply the way that the person is expressing collegiality towards you, and he/she may not realize that it makes you uncomfortable.  Being direct and stating exactly what behavior you don't like, as well as what behavior you would prefer, will leave nothing up in the air.\n\nAssuming that you have already talked to the person about it and directly asked him/her to stop, and you feel that your discomfort is affecting your work performance, mention it to a supervisor or HR.

Just ask him if he wants to hang out sometime after work, if he says yes than he is probably interested.  But that way if he says no then you didn't come out with your feelings so he won't act any differently.

Stop walking around and get back to work!\nSay hi once and just do a jesture next time.

To blow off a fellow workeror boss just excuse yourself and keep working. Something like "if you will excuse me I have work piling up that needs my attention" For customers well that is different...you are in customer service and that too is your job so you are still working. You may need to get away from your workstation and work somewhere away from the customers and allow fellow workers to fill in with the customers.

Just confront her with the fact you know.  If she's doing a good job otherwise, let it go, but tell her you can't tolerate any more situations like that.\n\nYou can't mix "business with pleasure".  How would you feel if it were any other employee?  What would you do if it were any other employee?

1.  Confront the person, ask them to stop\n2.  Inform the supervisor\n3.  If the above don't work, try looking for a new job.

Stand up to the person in question.  It is polite to let them know that you have a problem with their work habits BEFORE you tell your supervisor.  If your colleague does not change, then go to your boss.  If your boss does not deal with the problem, tell them you are not happy, and go to THEIR supervisor.  They will respond if you go higher in the chain of command, and remember, the squeaky wheel gets the grease.

Well......keep following the rules But Do Not and I repeat Do Not follow your co-workers around telling them how they are not following the rules and also don't be a "tattle tale".   Nobody likes working with someone like that. And as Crazy as it sounds just because you follow all the rules to a T it doesn't mean that You are more productive or a more valuable employee than someone who may bend them sometimes. Just focus on your own work and what you do and you won't have time to worry about who is following the rules.    Good Luck.

I would make an effort to get along with him and if that didnt work meanings you had to stay there i would do everything the way that boss wants it done then pursue to look for another job because if you stay in a work place that makes you miserable makes it so you dont want to work there period...\nSo its always better to be happy than miseraable...\ntake my advice i have been there done that...

There is no seperate set of rules for the behavior at the place of work. Behave like you do at any other place. Do your work properly, treat everyone nice and have fun

Everybody likes to hear "nice job" once in a while.  If they are hard workers, let them know that you appreciate them.  Kind words will go a long way.  If all you ever do is point out their mistakes, well, that gets old fast.\n\nMaybe let them off early (with pay) once in a while, the day before a holiday, or just because it is a nice day.  Even half an hour makes people feel like they are getting something.\n\nTreat them the way you would like to be treated, and see what happens.

If it's work, then keep it professional. It's not personal, it's work. Deal with that person as politely as you can when you have to, but stay away from them the remainder of the time. If it's causing trouble with your work or that person is not meeting deadlines, then you might have to escalate the problem to management or HR.\n\nDon't spread the word that you don't like this person either. It's most likely nothing to do with you and all about the person who's doing the ignoring. I bet they'll come around.

Get up from my desk and go visit other co-workers.  Sometimes I'll go to the bathroom and just kind of hang out in the stall with my eyes closed for a few minutes.

You should tell your boss how you feel, and tell him/her what the lady does. If it really upsets and interfeers with your job, let your boss know. the worst he can do is not do anything.

If it is at work, maybe go to the personnel department and talk it over with someone....or talk to people who are completely out of the situation and will not tell what you say.\n\nDevelop a plan to get out of there...document everything you do in case they accuse you of something. Carefully develop an alliance with someone there getting their approval of you, without telling them you have a problem..for example if your boss is mean, and there is someone else that has authority there too, impress them with how nice or good you are, and get their approval.  Sometimes one authority figure will speak positive things to the other and help to change their mind.\n\nSit tight and be careful...ask God to help you..
