Annoying person at work

[molly123]

I work with this annoying person. He is always in my office going on about how wonderful he is. He is junior to me. I am not sure why he feels a need to do this. I don't know if he sees me as competition or is trying to impress. Thoughts?

Ignore it. Some people do that because they have a lack of confidence. I would say "i am sure you are good at that." or if you are their boss, say "You are pretty good at that. But what about trying it this way. You might be able to grow even more with that skill." Or tell that person what YOu are good at.

If he's a junior to you hes probably trying to impress you

I have worked with people like that. There is always one or two in every workplace. Just listen politely and try to get away from them as quickly as possible. They are legends in their own mind.

tell him you have to get back to work and don't have time to chat.
