Mockery by colleagues can be very annoying. They are people that just love to make fun of others you just have to adopt the best ways to handle the situation

You just have to be calm but be firm when confronting the mocker with the issue.

Ask the perpetrator to stop but of not you can escalate the issue to the HR

Avoid the person as much as you can.

The only advise here is not to give room for mockery at work. There is bound to be unsavory attitudes from different coworkers. If you stand to be bothered, you are likely going to be victimized by their actions. Every individual has his own motives of working.

I would just ignore that person and focus on my work. If I really find him/her annoying, I'll tell him/her to stop or report the case to my supervisor or the Human Resources Department.

The best way to deal with mockers is to try as much as possible to ignore your mockers in a workplace. They can be energy-draining.

In my personal view, it is not allowed to do this within the working place. If it does, we need to report them and let the people-in-charge to call their attentions. Persistence can happen, then we need to file a case against them.

Ignoring them would have been great, but the truth of the matter is when you keep ignoring them, you are simply giving them a reason to keep mocking you. It would be best to face them head on.

Anyone who is trying to mock you at your workplace is a very lazy person because the person is not even taking his or her job seriously so you should try as much as you can to ignore them.

As for me, I faced ridicule at work, using the ridicule as a whip to change for the better. Besides that, I will let them continue to mock me, not responding, after a while they will get bored and stop on their own, because they feel they are not getting a response.

I can ignore these people if the concerns are not that serious. However, if they are doing something and it can affect my reputation, then I need to call their attention. There are times that situations cannot be controlled and it needs to be reported formally with the HR Department.

As far as my reputation is not affected, it doesn't concern me. People only mock and criticize someone that has worth.

A lot of people don't understand how powerful it is when it comes to ignoring those that are trying to get under your skin because it will get them frustrated.

Some people just like to do this to hit at your self esteem but if your reputation is not affected, then keep ignoring them you get mocked and criticize because of your high self worth
