Assuming that you already work with these people, and that they despite you as much as you do them
You need to determine how much the person you dislike is affecting your career. If it’s making you crazy, stressed out and nonproductive you need to think of transferring to a different team or eventually caving in and using your optimistic skills—maybe someday the person will change.
There is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to getting along with team members you despise. You should use upper management and workplace policy resources for the challenging people, but keep in mind that may not always work.
Finally, at times you may need to take a step back and determine if you are the one being a little over-judgmental or if you’re actually aiding them in their path to annoy you by completing work they’re supposed to do. Sometimes the fix needs to come from you, and that may require an attitude adjustment on your part.
I am not in work to like to dislike someone. I am there for a professional reason. I have to work with them in a professional manner. That is it.
