I have a coworker who keeps trying to get me to quit my job?

   
I am taller and a lot better looking than he is. I am more popular with the girls and guys at work too, and all the managers like me even though I started work ~6 months after he did. Do you think the idiot is envious of me? It's not my fault that he is ugly and isn't as friendly and good with people as I am. Should I just tell him to F*** off the next time he says something about how I should quit my job?

Answers:

1. sounds like you have high opinions of yourself

2. You should tell your ego to F*** off.

3. On no uncertain terms!!

4. Don't mind him and just pimp slap him next time.

5. Dunder Mifflin is hiring!!!! Dude, just keep working there, but be sure to check under your vehicle for explosives every evening when you leave...

6. Take him aside and ask him why he tells you that.

7. hahaha..."i'm taller and a lot better looking than he is. more popular...blahblahblah...." little full of yourself, huh? unless he wants to date you, you're in the wrong category, jerkwad...

8. Maybe he wants you to quit because your arrogant and think you're awesome. Otherwise, I'd ignore and do your job.

9. Its pretty obvious he is jealous, tell your superior regarding his manner and attitude. and strangle him.lol

10. Don't say a thing. He's an idiot and VERY jealous of you. He's feeling inferior and that's his issue, not yours. If you respond it will only add fuel to his fire. Ignore him -- literally. Don't look at him or speak to him. If he becomes a problem, let those managers who love you know.

11. your an arrogant asshole

12. Maybe a simple laugh would do the trick. You don't want to get fired when he goes crying to the boss.

13. well not the f bomb be the bigger man and tell him out right that your not gonna quit your job because you like it, and am good at it and maybe he is the one that should move on if hes got a problem with it. then i would ignore that loser people like that are the weakest link for sure and make everyone else's day the shits...maybe you need to speak to a higher authority if he's being a problem...ha get him fired !!!!

14. put a joint in his desk and then turn him in. that will take care of him

15. Whatever James! I'm not telling you you should quit your job I'm just saying you need to work somewhere else. I have two girlfriends and you don't have any so how can you call me ugly you retard! You're the one who's jealous of me that's why you're trying to be friends with all my co-workers. They tell me you can't stand it that I'm better than you at everything. Your such a loser!

16. If you are as great as you say you are then there is no need to say anything to him, he is obviously not concerned with improving himself if all he can come up with is for you to quit. Eventually he will either quit, or if you get a promotion he might shut up. But until then just put up with it. Besides, silence will at least give you the illusion of some humility.

17. Oh man, the only thing worse than an ugly person is an ugly person who is jealous of normal people. You should fight him until hes uglier than he already his in his face, haha rofl. P.S. If you are interested I can set you up in a pretty hot bi-sexual group, we are on all the major networking sites. ;)

18. Look him dead in the eye next time and tell him, You try it first. When I see how it works for you then I'll decide. Lets see if he has any more helpful hints after that

19. I do not think he is jealous. I just think you annoy him. So to answer your question; no I do not think you should tell him to **** off, I think you should apologize to him.

20. r u absolutely sure your better looking? maybe u both feel inferior to one another and are toxic to each other.be the better man and get along with your co workers. just ignore it . it will go away.

21. Just tell him, "I am NOT going to quit my job. Don't ask me again". You sound like you are "stuck" on yourself. Are you sure you are not being obnoxious to the other employees? Maybe this man is hinting for you to leave so they can have a nicer work environment. Think about it.

22. Do what you know is best and do not let anyone convince you to do otherwise. Don't bother to disagree with anyone, just do what you know is best. If you are going to take advice, take it from one who has does things the right way for himself.

23. If you like your job and it gets you enough money to survive, you should definitely keep it. as for this guy, try to ignore it, sometimes these things stop on their own. but you should not be rude to him or swear at him, this could get you sued or fired, or both. if it doesn't stop and it really starts bugging you, confront him politely and ask him to stop. if he continues, you have a harassment case and you should talk to your superior about it.

24. ....... I dont know....

25. I would focus more on the job instead of what people think of you. There's a big difference between confidence and arrogance. Dont confuse the two because your sounding like an asshole. Grow up.

26. Sounds like he's just trying to get under your skin and sees you as a threat. Or, could it be that he's overheard something that you don't know like you're not working out as well as hoped? I wouldn't use foul language, especially on the job. Next time, just ask him if he has a problem. Or you could say something like "I'm sorry that you feel that way, but if you don't like working for the same company as I, then I suggest YOU quit and find another job. After all, you have the problem, not me." Remember, the beauty inside is more important than the beauty outside. Not very humble, are you? Seems to me that your self centered (righteous) attitude may be a bigger problem than your co-worker.

27. Weird, and yes, tell him to consider dying in a fire.... or find a more tactful way to do it. He probably isn't jealous but feels you come off kind of caustic. I don't want to insult you but maybe check you attitude around him, it sounds like you may be coming of a little arrogant.

28. Just ignore him. Find out if he is doing it to anyone else. Some people try to get others to quit and if they are sucessful in doing that, they then feel the boss will look upon them as being real loyal and really like them. It's a form of brown nosing. You guys having a beauty contest where you work? You sound a little narcisitic, don't let this cloud your ability to figure out that not everything revolves around you, your looks and popularity. Maybe you should be a model or a tv personality.
