Resolving an issue of these and try to circumvent the situation is not easy, but it is one of two things, or if you deliver and up to accommodate what is an unpleasant situation and live many hours of your life almost always upset or fight for it to be more pleasant thus minimizing any state of mind more negative.
Throughout life the likelihood of the cross over someone who does not like to work is great and may even reach the point of exhaustion, as it begins to lose power when trying to control your own emotions and other people's behavior. Ideally, if you could do as a known: distance themselves avoiding any confrontation or drag. But, unfortunately, hardly the same can happen in the workplace and so here are some tips on how to counter the situation.
Managing reaction
The action generates reaction and, in this case, it can reach extreme hostility. Try exercising to think how you react to something instead of thinking how the other acts. It is easier to track and confront their own behavior than that of others. Thus, complement this with some relaxation exercises. On the other hand, you notice that the person's behavior is exclusively for 'attack it chooses to pretend and ignore (emotional contempt) that it does not affect him. Most people tend to give up when that note does not have the desired return.
Reformulate perspective
Sometimes the lessons we draw from the others do not match the reality, that is not always the first impressions are fair and can lead to misunderstandings and misinterpretations of people that cross our lives. Sometimes you have to develop a relationship and reach out to know the other better. Try to focus on the good qualities that the person has and see if during the day can realize from them. By valuing this notice you will know when someone is being nice or not.
On the path, it is appropriate to look in the mirror and consider if the problem is not yours and not the other, i.e., in addition to being able to be more resistance and negativity to someone who is very different from us, envy and other negative emotions can interfere (has the position that you would like to have, creates more empathy with their peers, etc...). Be honest with yourself, take your responsibilities and see if there is to judge evil the other because many of the times what we dislike in others is what we do not like in ourselves or because they envy what the other can achieve.
Give opinion
One of the things to avoid are opinionated conversations about this person with other colleagues ... I heard that 'the spell can turn against the sorcerer' right ?! Well, do not want to engage in what is a vicious cycle of hype, misunderstandings and says he only told to get some kind of "approval" and that may well turn against themselves professionally.
With respect to your opinion and feedback to the person who will bother to have some tact to do, that is, everything will depend on how good communicator and receptivity that will have. If you think you can have a civilized conversation and focused exclusively on work you can do it politely and calmly. Otherwise, if distrusts by little that is that one can lead to bad to the point of trying to retaliate in some way and turn into something personal and even a little irrational ... do not risk!
