    plenty of people. and when you make certain changes in your life, you are bound to run into more people.

    i try my best to use the opportunity to ... hmm, be a better person? learn NOT to get upset by them.

    generally though, i try to avoid situations with the offending person. there's also a lot to be said about learning how to deal with certain types of people. sometimes you can be the best of friends if you just learn to approach them differently.

    you could try looking up some information like MTBI personality tests, the Kiersey temperament sorter or a cheesy one like that Tony Allesandro site. they all should give you some free information about different personality types and how to make the friction between you a little less.

    90% of the people I work with. I either go about my own business, or on some days, think of ways to sabotage their 'stuff'.

    Yes, there is. Sadly she is getting under everyone's skin at the moment....I just ignore it. Sooner or later she is gonna get a talking to from a superior.

    yes, I try to ignore her when she's around and gripe about her and make catty remarks about her to others who don't like her either.

    My sister's boyfriend. I mostly ignore him, but if I can't, I do that bitchy fake nice thing. (I'm super good at it- and yes, I am proud of it. It takes skill. and cunning. and a "mean girl" sentimentality. hahaha)

    And once I let the dog lick the fork before I put it at his place setting and then felt giddy when he ate with it. I'm a very evil girl!;)

    Yes. The best way to deal with them as hard as it may be is to take the higher ground and to be kind to them. Try and find the best in them or a common ground between you both.

    Yes, my son's wife. I try to stay away from her as much as possible, and when it isn't possible, I try to avoid her.
