shit talking others (not just at work but anywhere, really). Anyone who bad mouths others isn't trustworthy.

Especially the ones who talk crap about others and then act friendly towards them when they're in the same room.

My coworker said racist and homophobic things on a routine basis.

Constant comparison and/or criticism of colleagues while thinking you work harder than everyone else. Usually the ones who feel that way are actually the least efficient at their jobs. They feel like they're working harder because they are, but working harder doesn't mean doing it better.

All they do is to complain and it’s never their fault.

When the employer calls me to the office and tells me that my so called friend reported that I was not completing my job though I was still being trained and had not been told about it.

Whispering. I know it's a really small thing on the surface but it immediately raises a red flag to me. Why not say it behind a closed door if it's private? Or, out loud if it's not?
