Facts. My job likes to think of us as a family. 🤣🤣🤣 I was threatened with my job for not agreeing to cover someone’s shift. I’ve been at this company for 60 days…still a new hire…. I live here now. 🤷. Turns out, they want you to have stuff and a family, they just don’t expect you to enjoy them.
Truest words ever spoken. People try SO HARD to pull your personal information out of you, and when you don't allow it, they rumor that YOU are anti-social or unfriendly. My life is my own business. My job is separate. My job is NOT my world, like it is to these emotional vampires who try to get you talking constantly. I'm there to WORK. NOT SOCIALIZE.
Gracious. Most people spend 8-10 hours a day, 5 days a week at work. That’s a long time to have no friends there! I have always had work friends. Makes the job bearable.
I agree! You don’t have to accept other peoples opinions and negative views or beliefs unless you want those negative opinions to become your own reality.
No. It's basically about you providing a service with which you get paid for and the growth of the company is not your problem unless you are running it.
I met one of my closest friends at work and we are extremely close and have been for years. I agree to a certain extent. You have to be careful with all people..not just co-workers.
4) Never date someone you work with. When it goes bad, he will make your job miserable, OR you'll find out he's moved on to someone else. 5) Never complain to your boss about anyone. You will be the one they fire.
Every job I've had coworkers were always asking personal questions. At one job, they tried to play matchmakers. Another job, they criticized what I had for lunch, telling me to lose weight so I can get boyfriend. My husband makes it a mission to befriend all his coworkers. He tells them personal stuff about our lives. I've told him to stop but he never does. Smh.
@@rominagresely526 I'm sorry to hear that about your husband however set boundaries cause he's doing a dangerous job, sharing personal information with regular people, or be it family doesn't really benefit the relationship or put food on the table but just makes y'all vulnerable to imposter's.
Well that's how some people are and that's when you walk away and mind your business or if it becomes annoying than seek help from the managers if they don't resolve the problem than go to HR
I’ve been working for the same company for 12 years I disagree with all these but I also don’t condone the opposite. Yes you won’t be friends with everyone, you have to know and get to trust certain people to talk about personal stuff and what you disagree with in company policy AND this is important always always become allies with HR become best friends. So don’t believe this you just have to be smart to navigate through everything. I’ve made it through 3 layoffs and I’m sure I’ll keep growing. Never see the negative always the positive and know where to invest your energies
You know what sucks when your boss is full of bs too i quit bcs of that can't work in an environment where people are dishonest and full of shit at least be respectful and kind to each other cause yall will be seeing the same faces everyday..
This is so true!! I had a situation that I took to HR. Wow the manager began to micromanage my work. Coworkers isolated themselves from me. Even when we began working from home. She watched every keystroke. After the verbal warning with chumped up charges I quit. The position was no longer worth it. I should have gone to the real problem solver God. I tried to fix it on my own and I only made it worst.
Colleagues at work are just a bunch of strangers from the street that had one common idea: to work in the same building. If I vibe with someone at work I'm still always on the fence. Only after one of us quits and we still decide to hang out, then friendship is possible to blossom.
But when you leave, assuming that your employment was terminated, then you can completely demolish the company and those who screwed you over on social media.
Very true, co-workers are not friends. They’re actually my family, literally. We have complete trust with each other, do what it takes to solve a problem, are highly motivated to work harder because it’s all for us, and have become successful because of that. I’m going to have to call bullshit on this AI generated bot account made solely for views by a 14 year old tech nerd who is doing it for the passive income. Don’t take this shit serious. Every workplace is different. Adapt what you’re willing to do according to the environment, unless you’re a socially inept person, then take no risks and listen to this.
The more co-workers know about you the more they can weaponize that information against you. You’re there to have a roof over your head and food on the table. That’s it.
Yes, truly agree. Selfish one always make sure that your work shouldn't be recognized. They advise you to reply sternly saying u but when it comes to them they play differently.
I work in healthcare services where there is lots of women.. These rules should be learned. They do not care. They seem interested but in reality they just enjoy your heartship.
Ditto! I share nothing with my Coworkers. They only knew me as the Quiet one who kept to myself. It was none of their business what my personal life outside of work was. I was at work to do my job and do it well. Now FB, it's the News for a lot of people(not me, not on FB). Carry yourself in the way that makes people wonder what you are about, and why you look so HAPPY ALL THE TIME(It's the Peace you carry within yourself) Stay that way. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽💜❤ 7/5/24
#4 Misery loves company. Other employees will drag you into there drama just “because”. Remember people who are going nowhere want you to go with them.
This video is damn wright!! I'm going thru trying to find another job just because I trusted co workers!!! This is the truth I learned the hard way. 😢 (RUSH)
They can hate me all they want. No servant is greater than his master. I am not ashamed of what God did for me. Believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead and confess Jesus as Lord and you will be saved.
That's true! My work and life have taught me that. P.S. What a coincidence, we both follow and comment on the Butters The Bean and Sugar Bean channels! Wow! I'll take cats over people any time lol 🤣😻🧡🙏
Yes...... I learned the hard way to keep my mouth shut. Had a male colleague ask all kinds of questions..... going so far to ask if I paid rent when I moved back home with my parents.....what size bra I wore.....when I went on vaca who I went with and how we slept..... creep. I didn't answer him but it was constant.
As a shift worker that spends as much, if not more, time at work with my workmates, than my own family at times, I can safely say a few from work are my good mates. I've been there for 15 years. It is important to know who is and who isn't on your side though.
Nah, some people could be your friends. You just need to know who is and who isnt. Also, most of the times I dont like a policy, others have followed me and dislike it toom
Yes all of these points are excellent advice, so I subscribed. Be on good terms with your colleagues, but don't trust them with details of your personal life or plans. 👍🏻👊🏼
I agree and I practiced these guidelines. But I had a boss pull me aside and say “just pretend that you care about TV or some other trivial things so people won’t think you’re distant”.
I would like to make slight changes to the first point. You can make great friends at workplace, but remember friends come with their own limitations and weaknesses. Survival first, so don't be too dependent on anyone.
All true. Also, never trust anyone in HR. Companies are always looking to cut costs. All other departments can do so by improving efficiencies, finding cheaper raw materials, negotiating lower cost contracts, or improving productivity. HR’s only levers are cutting people, lowering pay, eliminating bonuses, replacing older, more expensive employees with cheaper younger ones, or by reducing benefits. They’ll give you the shaft and get rewarded for it.
If coworkers ask for your social media. You tell them you don't have one. Also, get a $30 a month phone plan and use that number just for work/colleagues. Always separate work and personal life. Or it's too late.
Yes ... Dear... I ❤totally agree 💌🤦with you more than 111% . Is very important because is better to keep things to yourself, they can destroy you.. they have two sides... if you are nice they run you over and if you don't know they will crush you. So is the best thing you can do it trusts in yourself. Do your best. You have to know that people nice to you because they want something things from you no they best benefit, no one is nice to you just for the heck of it. Thinks twice... The person who you can trust and talk or share with you anything you have from problem amd anything in life is your self and the one you love or the person love you. If you asking me WHY??? It because she love and care about you for you and her future in your family life together. She not gonna hurt you, she probably can able to listen to helping you with a problem what you have and can give you advice or even she or he can helping you to solve it together. I wish my best t❤
I honestly never had issues in the workplace I’m self employed now though but when I did work everybody liked me a lot in fact I’m still in contact with a lot of my former coworkers too. 🤷🏽♀️
Guess I'm going to be the lone somewhat dissenter. This is good advice, however if you've been raised to develop the power of discernment, you'll know who to befriend, no matter the setting.
Idgaf anymore 😂 my boss is lit, im an open book, and when I disagree with anything i let my boss and management know. They try anything and I'm out the door and sinking them with receipts.
I have learned all 3 of these points of wisdom the hard way. I have learned there are people out there that will take what you say about yourself and “flip the script” on you and use what has been said as a very, very , sharp verbal knife and use it against you without any mercy and then look you straight in the eye and justify and rationalize their actions without batting an eye and say they haven’t done anything to you . Needless to say, I keep to myself as much as possible and keep my mouth shut and yell “ none ‘ya damned business” and mind your own damned business. It’s a jacked up deal when they have the attitude “do as I say, not as I do.” They most definitely will not allow themselves to be treated this way, but it’s okay if they do it to someone else. Very hypocritical and narcissistic people.
You know the one about keeping your personal life to yourself? This does not happen in the NHS. They have this thing called a Personal Development Plan and every month will take those they want ammo against, in for these meetings to ask you about your personal life, not anything else. It is invasive, legalised intrusion and troubling. How could what you do outside of the office environment be any of their business. 🤔😡
I guess it must be in the small print somewhere, in some form that you signed doing your employment paperwork, that you consent to this. Thing is, can they intervene? Or even worse penalize you over it? Edit: I just googled it and read into it.. I'm sorry this sucks much more than I thought it did. Ffs they have the Continuous Medical Education thing going already, and exams, and workplace assessment, now you need to put up with this as well. For what it's worth, people generally really appreciate the service of nhs workers though. Thank you for your service. I hope it gets better for you. And you should get paid more. By allot.
Yes, indeed. I agree with this message 💯 %. True facts. 2 fingers snap. Trust and Believe God knows all. Just chill and watch your blessing coming through ,true facts. 😊❤
What if you fall in love with your manager...who came on to you and also fell for you? Pretty hard to ignore that. It was very special and magical ❤ and I wouldn't change a moment of what took place! 😊
