Are Toxic or Sloppy Co-Workers Affecting Your Productivity?

Everyone's got them – someone you work with who is either all over the place and completely disorganized, or someone who is downright toxic and rude. Either way, its people who are difficult to work with that often prevent you from being able to get your job done properly. This issue is especially annoying and frustrating for people like me, who are buttoned-up, organized and overly-conscious of deadlines -- otherwise know as ANAL J. In addition, I do my best to treat everyone at work the way I like to be treated -- with kindness, courtesy, and respect...regardless of how frustrated or pissed off I may be.
