#CareerAdvice : 3 Ways To Say ‘Thank You’ To #DifficultCoworkers …#HappyThanksgiving to All ! FSC Team.
Dealing with people is one of the most difficult aspects of working. You work with people with distinctive personalities, different time management skills, unique communication methods and various responsibilities. It can be difficult to get along with coworkers because you may feel like they make more work for you, are uber-competitive or don’t treat you with the respect you deserve.
Try to be kind this holiday season and show appreciation for the little things. You will always have people with whom you don’t see eye to eye. You will always work with individuals who you don’t fully understand. Try to embrace the challenge.
Here are three ways to show thanks to your colleagues, even those that might rub you the wrong way:
1. Say, “I appreciate….”
You do not have to use the words “thank you” to express gratitude. The phrase might be too uncomfortable for some to say to a coworker that has made work difficult for them. The words might be too formal for the situation.
Consider saying, “I appreciate…” Identify an aspect of their approach to work or their contribution, and let the person know you value it. You don’t have to sing their praises or laud them excessively. Pick one thing about the person that you appreciate, even if it is small, and say it to them out loud. You might say, for example, “I appreciate your ability to ask questions to flush out all options.”

2. Show up in-person.
When you are working with a person you dislike, you may not want to be around them. You may prefer to interact with the person as little as possible and keep communications at arms length, using email or telephone to conduct business.
