How to gracefully deal with people YOU JUST CAN'T STAND?

And yes, as a matter of fact, I'm having a less than stellar day at work. Why do you ask? biggrin

Seriously. I'm not a bitter person. I don't like to hang on to hatred or bile or any of that stuff.

BUT SOME PEOPLE JUST PISS ME OFF. mad

I have to deal with someone every day who, if I talk to them for longer than, say, two seconds, I start to shake because I loathe them with such deepness. There are things they do that are intentionally hateful, but really? It's just one of those deep-down things where your gut gives you a bad vibe from the moment you meet them. I just try to stay far away from this person, but sometimes, well, it can't be helped.

So. What's the most gracious way to deal with someone you realy cannot abide? Is there a gracious way to go about it?

i was hoping for a more nuanced approach, actually. neutral

anyway, i don't think guns would work on this one unless i had silver bullets.

i usually remain very quiet and in the process of being around them i try to find something nice about them ... their eyes, their smile...their shoes... whatever and stay fixed on that positive thing until the event is over

U should push your feelings deep down inside and just wear a smile.
That way, you'll get along better.

Nah, what u do is u really piss them off and maybe get 'em off ur back permanantly is by being really in their face and wierd. Then they back off, or they love u more. Infact, the latter applies quite alot.

Say u like Michael Bolton. That works for me.

I always envision different ways of slowly killing them. You should try it, it's kind of fun.
