Dude, if your boss is telling you to stop SMSing at work, then stop. If your boss is making a joke of you, look for another job.

Well I think you should change your job....you could be wrong or the others could be .... but in any case...i think its better you change your job.. But then you may take this negative opportunity positively ... and see if that makes a difference May be you are more timid and presented yourself as a easily vulnerable laughingstock... better learn to deal with these people and boost your own self-confidence.... i m not suggesting any full scale harmful and unethical retaliation ... but if you let this happen to you ... you'll more likely do that in future...finally bad for both the parties one risky suggestion that works if you are efficient at your work: Yell at your boss ... he'll learn to respect you...

Perhaps, but I wouldn't change my advice.

Hey Buddy You need to boast of what you are doing. Whenever you do something good just apeak aloud , when you doing this for a long , everybody will come to know what you are doing & how good you are. Make your stand , everybody may not be doing intentionally, but you need to shot a loud that you are good & doing good job. People need something to talk about & they find whatever is easiest. I would say just make your stand Tell to all that you are doing a good job Float self appreciation mails :-) Tell all al them that you are important & doing good job & i hope sending sms would be a small thing that you can manage without affecting your work. Regards

I don't think we're hearing the full situation here. There is obviously an underlying cause for the way that you perceive these people are behaving towards you. You really need to have a long hard think about the way that others see you, and why they act this way to you. Are you the new person in a tightly knit office? If you are, you will have to bide your time. Do you use innappropriate behaviour/language? Do you interrupt others? Do you act as though you know more than the others? I know that this seems harsh but you will not be able to change attitudes (yours or theirs) without figuring out what the underlying cause could be. As far as the work goes, it is common to put the newbie into bug fixing. I know it's not interesting, but it is one way to learn what the software does. Plus, somebody has to do it and that's normally the last one in. If the problem really is with you then changing jobs isn't going to help. You will merely switch locations for your misery. Do you try to join in with the others outside work? Consider that going out for dinner/drinks with your colleagues is a good way to break the ice and to show you are part of the team. Plus, remember that you "Work to live" and not the other way round. The work day may seem long and boring to you, but you are still getting paid and you can look forward to things outside work. That can be a big compensation when you don't particularly like your job.

Understood thanks dude... iven been in this company for a year and a half and two newbies came after me....i have development tasks before and they all turned out good, for example last week one of the newbies got a development task and im stuck with bugs, Like i said im trying my best. Some times ice is broken and we talk of something else for like 5mins which is good because we're at work, but i think praise for good work is needed in order to keep the employee happy no? Am i wrong? if not correct me. I am not stating that they are the problem, The problem is the whole situation...Which i mean to tackle with you guys's advice which is very responsive :) and i thank you for that.
Cheers

Maybe your problem is that you're too defensive ? I'm not taking a shot at you, at least, that was not my intention.

Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you.

i entered the office and no one said good morning
- Maybe they're not morning people. 2) Try to get to work before everyone else does - problem solved.

when i do something good i get no feedback, just a little "good" which is barely heared
- Maybe your "good" stuff just ain't up to par with the other people's good stuff. 2) Maybe anything you do that doesn't break the code is good, even if the code you write simply isn't good. (They're counting their blessings that they didn't have to clean up after you - again.) 3) You're only as good as your last bad act.

since me and my gf are not seeing each other that much we send sms's through out the day,they are commenting about it all the time in sarcastic jokes
Ahhhh, now we get down to what the real problem is. It sounds like you're causing problems by sending messages instead of WORKING.

they are only giving me bugs to solve....no Development.
- Last I checked, maintenance coding WAS development. 2) If I worked with a guy that called himself "Pinky", I don't think I'd let him anywhere near the production code either.

It sounds to me like you'd better quit before you get fired.

Well, let's go down the list... 1) You're texting your girlfriend instead of working. 2) You arrive late. 3)

Seriously, would YOU want to hang out at a bar with someone that calls himself "Pinky"? His co-workers can probably smell death on him, so they instinctively treat him as a pariah. He should probably consider a change of vocations to something that more suits his abilities - like driving a Taxi.
