6 subtle signs that your coworkers hate you


Sometimes, you need to trust your gut. It's important to determine who you can trust at work. It's good to make friends in the office. It's also smart to figure out which coworkers aren't too crazy abou
According  to Lynn Taylor, a national workplace expert and the author of "Tame Your Terrible Office Tyrant: How to Manage Childish Boss Behavior and Thrive in Your Job," and Michael Kerr, an international business speaker and author of "The Humor Advantage."
Here are some subtle signs that your colleagues don't like you:



 

1. They're short with you 

 

If you ask "How's it going?" and they always respond with "OK" or "Fine" — or if their emails always get straight to the point and never begin with a friendly "Hello" or "Good afternoon" — then this may be a sign that they're not a huge fan of you.
"If they sound like a moody teenager, then that's a pretty big red flag," says Kerr.

 

2. They never include you in their office bantering or humor


"Joking around is a key way that relationships become cemented in any workplace, and not inviting you into the inner circle of bantering is a sign your coworkers may not feel comfortable around you enough to think of you as 'one of the team,'" says Kerr.

 

3. They assume unauthorized power


Sometimes coworkers who want to muscle in on your position will play boss even when they have no authority, says Taylor.

 

4. They don't acknowledge your presence


If your colleagues don't say "Good morning" when you arrive or "Have a great night" on their way out, then they may be telling you that they don't like you, says Taylor.

 

5. They give off negative body language


Whether it's a subtle eye roll or constantly assuming a closed-off position with arms folded across their chest, or they don't look up from their computer screen when you enter their office, your coworkers' body language will often reveal their true feelings toward you, Kerr says.

 

6. They constantly disagree with you


Continuously gunning down your ideas is a sign that they don't like you.
"If it feels like someone shoots down every thought before you've even finished a sentence, then it's often because their dislike is so strong that they are biased against anything you suggest, even when it's a great idea," says Kerr.
