What is the biggest challenge at work: the people (office politics), or the actual work?

Jane W asked:

Someone once told me that the hardest thing about work is not the actual assignments you are given or learning and performing the actual duties themselves but the people interaction required. He told me that the office politics and the interpersonal conflict is far more difficult.

Do you agree or do you think the actual duties you are assigned is more challenging.??
I am not talking so much about socializing in the office but getting people to work effectively together because most of us can not work in isolation.

Should we really even talk about politics with friends and neighbors?

Kody M asked:

I mean, we have the right to our own opinions and of free speech as pointed out in the Bill of Rights, but for our own sake should we really even discuss or debate it? Every time somebody starts talking politics the conversation gets pretty heated and eventually turns into a shouting match. Is this where our country is headed? Towards another secession?

Note: Don’t be rude and don’t tell me whether you like Obama or McCain because frankly, I don’t care.
