Are you A

Complainer ?

35-30 = Major Complainer

29-24 = You are a Complainer

23-18 = You’re in the middle of the road

17-12 = Complaining isn’t an issue

11-6 = You almost never complain

People are not allowed to mindlessly complain to their

coworkers. If they have a problem or complaint about their job,

their organization, their customers, or anything else, they are

encouraged to bring the issue to their manager or someone

who is in a position to address the complaint.

However, the employee or team member must also have

thought of one or two possible solutions to the complaint and

share that as well.
