Tired of hearing complaints. Can't human beings be more optimistic? I don't want to be the main recipient of complaints all my life. So, for God's sake, please spare me this agony. After a day's work, one usually wants to do something peaceful, like reading a book, watching some TV programmes, etc. I really do not want to be bothered with things like "What do you think of this?", "How do you interpret this?", "Help me with this and that"....... Honestly, I wouldn't mind doing this or lending a listening hear if I am not tired, but imagine reaching office at 730am and start working all the way till 630pm. Won't you be tired, both emotionally and physically? I just don't want to think, or to be bombarded with all sorts of unimportant questions. So, please.
Someone in the office always loves to complain, so much so that I try to avoid talking to him. Every single leisure conversation with him will somehow lead to a complain session. I am really really sick of it. I guess though some people 'deserved' to be complained, there must be some compliments that they deserve, right? So if you are someone who complains a lot, please think twice. Reason is that as human beings, we are not just made to listen to complaints, but our brains also need to process something nice. If you hear complaints or negative things all the time, what will happen to the recipient? How will the recipient react towards such daily complaints? Simple. Like what I have done towards this person in the office, I simply avoid talking to him, esp during working hours. He seems to get the message, and he doesn't come to my desk to chat anymore. However, we still have lunch as a group everyday. In this way, I can still keep him as a nice working co-worker, and at the same time, I do not have to receive his complaints everyday!
But, what if you have to deal with some one who complains a lot and who is closer to you? I guess I just have to ignore!
