What does your average day look like?

So, it turns out that the average office worker has disagreements with their colleagues 1.06 times daily.  Who knew!

If you can get your head round that .06 part, then that means that every person in every office has to deal with workplace conflict (of varying degrees of course!) every single working day.  Now this could be anything from who's making the next round of teas (the average person drinks 3 cups per day if you were interested), to more serious personality clashes and even formal complaints.

But the good news?  It seems that HR are an upbeat kind of crowd with 60% of HR professionals telling researchers they were happy in their job.
