Input: I have a coworker who whines, a lot.  He is a project engineer and I am the project manager.  I have to discuss project related things with him daily, but i hate doing it.  As the PM, i need facts, dates, lead times and technical data...  that's it.

He will get me this information, but it takes 15 minutes or more to extract it from his whining about everything other than what we can do to succeed.  For example, I ask "when will x be ready to order" and his response is, "well, you know that something completely unrelated to project is going on, and I feel / think / dont know"...  

Like 5 minutes of straight up bitching before I get any usable information.  Its grueling!  

I've now gotten to the point that I ask him to email me status updates so I can avoid the whining.  Today, after a call to the boss, we needed to talk about changing vendors to save a few days on something, and he started complaining.  I stood up, looked at him and said "if you have nothing productive to add, I'm going to find us a new vendor" and walked away while he was still flapping his gums.  

Were not friendly outside of work, and I'm not interested in his life at all.  I'm that way with most of my colleagues, it makes it easier to be their PM this way.  Nobody has an "in" with me, and everybody is on an equal level.

completely dismissing a coworker when they turn a productive discussion into a pity party
