I often wear myself out mentally thinking of what I would not do for a Klondike Bar. There isn't much.

Like butting heads with the people you work with cause they don't cooperate and flat out don't care about their jobs.

Bribe them. Every Friday award an employee with a box of candy for best effort. It will be incentive for a while to get in the spirit of things and may create a new type of relationship. Just do it for a month, see how it goes.
A box of whitmans is what? four bucks? Maybe a gift certificate for a large fries at McDonalds. be fun maybe.
