Everyone has worked with a less than desirable person at some point in their career. Whether it’s someone who whines about everything, takes credit for other people’s work, spreads gossip, has a temper or is just lazy, these employees are often unbearable to co-workers and, often, prospects and tenants.

Have you ever worked with someone who brought nothing but trouble to work? How did you handle it?
