Nonetheless, 59% admit that work is an essential element of their life. More than half of the respondents (54%) claim that they find satisfaction from their work. One of the most crucial aspects is the workplace atmosphere, and negative behavior from colleagues can significantly deter us.<\/p>\n<p>So, what ruins the atmosphere and weakens our motivation? Poles most often point to laziness and attempts to avoid responsibilities by co-workers. Over 30% of respondents admit that observing others shirking their tasks decreases their own productivity.<\/p>\n<p>How those around us behave also significantly influences our mood. Among the behaviors that most often temper our spirits are snitching on colleagues (44%) and lack of respect (40%).<\/p>\n<p>The effect of having toxic work colleagues? A whopping 13% of respondents openly admit that they don\u2019t like the people they work with.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Want_To_Be_Liked_At_Work_Stop_Complaining_And_Gossiping\"><\/span>Want To Be Liked At Work? Stop Complaining And Gossiping!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Preply\u2019s research shows that Poles always find a reason to grumble.  Half of the respondents reported having to listen to their colleagues\u2019 complaints. What are these gripes about? Mainly wages (33%), management and the company (9%), and work overload (8%). Interestingly, 9% of those asked about the most common causes of their colleagues&#8217; complaints pointed to\u2026 everything.<\/p>\n<p>Gina Sole, digital PR manager at Preply, commented on this. &#8220;The results confirm a stereotype, but at the same time, it is evident that Poles are starting to feel uncomfortable being branded as a nation of complainers. We don&#8217;t like listening to other people&#8217;s complaints, yet we can&#8217;t stop ourselves from doing it. In an international environment, excessive complaining is not appreciated.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>For Poles, another undesired workplace behavior is gossiping (49%). Following closely behind is laziness, pointed out by a third of respondents, and jealousy ranked third (27%).<\/p>\n<p>Behaviors that warrant little attention include: taciturnity (15%), intolerance (17%), lack of humor (18%), and tardiness (21%).<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Honesty_%E2%80%93_The_Highest_Value\"><\/span>Honesty &#8211; The Highest Value<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Preply also asked respondents about the traits they value most in colleagues. Almost 40% pointed to honesty. A third of respondents admit that they value reliability and commitment to responsibilities.<\/p>\n<p>Poles are famous for their hard work and thoroughness. Therefore, it&#8217;s not surprising that we expect the same from others. However, reality doesn&#8217;t always meet our expectations. As the study reveals, honesty and reliability are less common than one would hope. On the other hand, communication skills and a sense of humor are traits that are easy to come by.<\/p>\n<p>Source: Preply<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Preply asked Poles about the traits in their co-workers that bother them, and which ones deserve respect.
