You must have these 7 people at work

We spend major part of our lives at the workplace. Hence the environment should be such that we should be able to look forward to work and not dread it.

There are all kinds of people at work and the list can be exhaustive. Here are a few interesting ones that are part of every organisation. (Thinkstock Photos/Getty Images)
2/8

You must have these 7 people at work

Altruistic: This person would go out of his way to make others happy, sometimes at the cost of getting himself in trouble. People take undue advantage of him for their selfish gains. (Thinkstock Photos/Getty Images)

Reliable: This person is the best of the lot. Want someone to work on your weekly off? She's only too willing to lend her supporting hand. You can confide your secrets in her and be sure they won't be shared. (Thinkstock Photos/Getty Images)
4/8

You must have these 7 people at work

Couch potato: He's the hungry jack. Always munching something or the other. His desk is filled with food items of all sorts- chips, cup noodles, biscuits, chocolates. He loves to eat and keeps ordering food from outside. Be on good terms with him as he can be your saviour when you are hungry. (Thinkstock Photos/Getty Images)
5/8

You must have these 7 people at work

Backstabber: She's very social and talks to everybody. But her intentions aren't genuine. You never know when she'll let you down. She might let you down when you least expect it. Should she land in crisis, she will use you to get out of it. For instance, if the boss is unhappy with your work, she'll conveniently place the blame on you. (Thinkstock Photos/Getty Images)
6/8

Rumour monger: She's always hungry for interesting gossips so she can pass it on to others during lunch or coffee break. She's interested about your personal life, problems and everything about you. Rumours floating around your love life? You know the culprit. (Thinkstock Photos/Getty Images)
7/8

You must have these 7 people at work

Flirt: No, you don't have to stay away from him as he's harmless. He thinks he's the reincarnation of Lord Krishna and loves to be seen around with women. He doesn't miss an opportunity to complement you. He makes you feel like the most beautiful person on earth. Many feel such people boost your confidence. (Thinkstock Photos/Getty Images)
8/8

You must have these 7 people at work

Humorous: He has a great sense of humour and. He makes boring work life so much better and tolerable. You literally chill out when he's around. (Thinkstock Photos/Getty Images)
