I'm worried I'm going to snap at someone because I'm constantly on edge. Having to hear them talk makes me feel like scratching my ears out. It's the poor planning, poor communication, disorganization, and general lack of competence that makes me crazy. I know I have high standards and can be a perfectionist, but I often feel like them being so crappy just creates more stress for everyone. This week, I have to do team-building with them, which I dread immensely. I dislike them as coworkers and as people. I hate feeling this way, but I am having a lot trouble coping.
I know how annoying coworkers can be. There is not much you can do about it, but talking about it at work does not seem to do more than swatting a swarm of bees.

Here is an idea. Write down all the employees on your team and write at least 5 hopefully 10 things they do that are good or outstanding. Then take that list to work and share when you have to do this team evaluation. If you find the best in somebody it is hard for them to not warm up a little bit.

Good luck.
