Types of People in an Office

#01 - The Boss
This is the person who is in charge. You go to them with complaints, you go with suggestions for change and if they come looking for you, run. You always know who your boss is, it's in your job description.

#02 - The Hard Worker
This person does their job. And some of yours. The main issue with this person often comes in the form of expecting them to do your job for you, but don't be fooled. They may take your place at a meeting so you can go home to watch reality TV, but when it comes time for that report to be done, they might just make you do it yourself. After all, shouldn't we all be working that hard?

#03 - The Ghost
They're always in the office, but not at the same time as you... Whenever you see them outside the office, they're super friendly. Surely they're not avoiding you, right?

#04 - The Missing Person
Similar to the ghost, you never see them in office. They're always out at lunch, in a meeting or down the doctor's office. Or at least, it's what they text you saying they were doing...

#05 - The Lazy One
Very different to the hard worker. They just don't do much. Kind of like the missing person but you do see them in the office. How can they spend that much time there and yet do so little? I mean, honestly?

#06 - The Secretary
They might not be the secretary, but they usually are. They are always the easiest to find and super friendly. A real people person. Always smiling, usually laughing, never on their own.

#07 - The Control Freak
All the work has to be done their way. Exactly. If it's not done exactly to their liking... Well, let's hope you don't get offended too easily. And are willing to work overtime to finish it their way.

#08 - The Power Freak
They don't care about doing the work. They just want power. The more important they are, the better.

#09 - The Nerd
We know all about nerds. They are good with IT and tend to talk about the latest video game convention or last night's sci-fi episode. Maybe not the best person to get stuck next to at the photocopier but definitely helpful when "Have you tried turning it off and on again?" just doesn't work.

#10 - The Green Freak
"Don't print it, just email me." and "DON'T PUT IT IN THE BIN! Recycle it." are common phrases this person will say. They will probably never reuse their plastic bottles though!
