The Work account should be your Office 365 account. Your personal account tends to be your Microsoft (MSA) account. Did you ever have Outlook or Hotmail in the past with the same username/email address for the login? Try logging into https://outlook.live.com/ or https://account.microsoft.com/account. If you can't remember the password do a password reset.
Let me know how it goes.

I can normally login on both sites, outlook one just asks me if I want to login with my work or personal account (first it asks for email, i put my work@domain.com, and then asks which account use). I want to get rid of that. I don't have any problems using my work account, it's just annoying that I have to choose every time, when I don't recall creating personal account. And even if, where is the option to delete it?!
I've never had outlook or hotmail.
