Don’t eat lunch at your desk: also maybe it just depends on the workplace but a lot of the time if you’re eating at your desk you never get an actual lunch break, a break from working. Extra calories isn’t an issue that keeps me up at night, but having an annoying boss, colleague, client who sees you eating and says “Oh I don’t mind!” Then proceeds to tell you what they need you to do for them right now as you eat. So you end up never getting a real lunch break. Don’t worry/not worry so much about extra lbs you’ll get from snacking, worry that you will never get 30 mins to eat/use the bathroom at all if you are always available. Get up from your desk find an empty private corner and take your 30mins.

@anydae 5 лет назад

@JennyWas13 5 лет назад

Spoonie Beauty it’s pretty common to not eat a lunch break in professional accounting services- it’s just what you sign up to- if everyone else is working hard towards a deadline and you get up and leave- that’s going to erode your reputation pretty quick. You’re better off getting some “breaks” in by committing to get up and eat a glass of water/tea or go to the bathroom every hour. But yeah, it’s definitely not necessarily the norm to get a break

@klamentyne5991 5 лет назад

30 mins? :o

@Kat22Kit 5 лет назад

JennyWas13 I understand that, or if you’re a trauma surgeon etc, life-death, deadlines, you’re working OT whatever. I work in Senior Living and there will literally always be an “emergency” from a resident having a stroke in the dining room to a vendor not making an appointment but wanting to tell you about their jewelry business. I have gone days without going to the bathroom till I get home, to not going home till 10pm at night and realizing that I never ate that day. It’s not healthy, I learned the very hard way that being able to hand off the phone to a co-worker and saying “im taking my lunch” even if it’s ten minutes will help you not burning out like crazy. And heaven forbid an actual life or death emergency happens someone will find you. Because yeah, getting a coffee/bathroom break every hour is simply not possible, then in my industry you will be the person no one can ever find that’s always “on a break”.

@YuliaMit 5 лет назад

#5 is so accurate. Once you give that impression of ‘I’m cool with staying late all the time’ everyone will take it for granted. I wish I knew that sooner.

@LittleMissRockChalk 5 лет назад

I’m in year six at work, but because experience in teaching progresses slowly, I’m still very young in my profession. I will add to this a big one: being on your phone at meetings. I see young teachers especially doing this a lot...which is odd considering how annoying cell phones are in our own classrooms. If you can’t commit to being present, then don’t be present at all.

@wiiiz3 5 лет назад

im used to seeing students yelled at by being on the phone in class but teachers during meetings? now that's hilarious. do teachers get yelled at too?

@femmeNikita27 5 лет назад

Well, sometimes this starts with the boss or the manager being on the phone during meetings. You're right- if you're in the meeting try to be really present there. Otherwise such meeting is just a waste of time. For everyone present.

@angelemmanuelperezmuniz1474 5 лет назад

I had seen teachers in the meetings behaving the way they don't like their students behaving. Talking and ignoring their boss or person talking in the front. If they don't pay attention and stay quiet they shouldn't expect and demand their students to do or even better they should give the example.

@ArborParva 5 лет назад

Staying late in the office almost always means you have poor time management skills OR you are straight up being used by your boss/coworkers to do their job instead of them. If you're doing this on a daily basis, better think that through before you get chronically tired and burned out.

@amandakesterson224 5 лет назад

ArborParva not really, many companies aren’t run properly. Systems are outdated, partners are overworked, and being able to keep up with career advancement can commonly make you work late often.

@slimpickens8343 5 лет назад

I agree, there are times when work load is higher, but get up earlier. People perform much better at 7-8 am then 7-8 pm. It's just like pulling all nighter in college. It's become a "trendy" thing to do, but it does far more damage then good lol

@amandakesterson224 5 лет назад

Josh Cleary thats a very broad statement. Lemme tell you, if you drag me out of bed before 7 (and that is PUSHING it) you’re not even getting my moderate work. My best work happens at 10 pm. I tried the early morning thing (for six weeks to try and make it a habit), my boss got so frustrated with the quality of my work from the morning she programmed my card not allow me in the building prior to 8 am.

@asadb1990 5 лет назад

only work late if you absolutely have to. i find it better to simply come in on Saturday so that you can get your work done, but you won't have to deal with other employees. and i can come in with my casual clothes.

i like to do that. but unless my bosses are gonna be ok with me leaving 15-20min early as well whenever i want, i dont feel coming in early. i used to come in an hour early but found that worthless when i wanted to use that to leave early once in a while.

@tarawelytok5915 5 лет назад

Being the meeting minute taker is usually bad advice for young women. It almost always falls on women and the person focusing on taking notes is not the person contributing the most. I got stuck doing this at some jobs and then would keep getting asked why I wasn't talking as much in the meetings Do not make my mistake. Do not send out your notes unless it is YOUR JOB

@casondrastinson8525 3 года назад

Exception: if you're a project manager.

@somethingcooliguess 3 года назад

Yeah, this tip gave me pause. Catching up with people's words doesn't allow you to process the situation and provide input. One thing I've done is "clarify" a note from my interpretation. The person can confirm I understood them clearly and appreciates the care taken to their idea, and I can state my own perspective/idea. It just isn't a great habit to be known as the person to write things down. @Casondra Stinton, since this video is for first year at a job, we may be thinking of entry level positions.

@scoopitywoop 3 года назад

When I was an intern, I volunteered to take minutes, and this ended up with me getting invited to really senior meetings that I otherwise never would have been able to attend. I learnt so much from this strategy, but agree that this can be a trap for some people

@mmmmmmolly 5 лет назад

i made mistake #5 at my previous job after i received a sort of promotion. i thought it was my job to stay overtime and help or make sure the job is done. not to mention my boss was exactly like the negative example Chelsea gave. I'm at an other workplace now, and i have stayed overtime because it was needed, but i do get paid for it, unlike at my previous job. my old boss actually said "your dreams are not important, [name of company] is important" so yeah, good riddance.

@BewareTheLilyOfTheValley 5 лет назад

One of those workplaces where you're expected to make your job your first priority for everything, above family or having a life...ugh. Yeah, you can miss me with that crap. Happy you got out.

@mmmmmmolly 5 лет назад

@@BewareTheLilyOfTheValley thanks. looking back, i think my boss was sad and lonely, he didn't had a significant other or kids, friends, he didn't really have anyone. he just worked all day... well worked. i should say followed our every move and tried to find more complicated ways for doing things that already worked. i could make a part 3 for horrible bosses. anyway, quitting that job was a good decision. my current job is difficult but we have to realize our health and the people we love come first. we have a saying that no one is going to raise a statue for you if you stay overtime.

@richthepup 5 лет назад

Imola Szilágyi sorry to hear that. That’s def a toxic work environment. More importantly your leader sounds incompetent. If your dreams aren’t aligned with your reality than there’s no chance you’re staying there long term. Good idea to move on.

@360shadowmoon 4 года назад

I think it's normal to stay less than a year at your very first job, because typically people take the first offer they get but it is rarely ideal. The first job is more like a launching pad for a career you actually want, so if you get the second opportunity soon after entering your first job, you should definitely take it. (But then try to remain at your second job for 2 plus years)

@laexploradoraaaXD 4 года назад

At my first corporate job, I spent most of my first year working in the same office as my boss and so I got a pretty good idea of what her workload was like and what was expected of her, which made me manage my expectations of her. I always took notes and I brought that with me from my collegiate education and it has served me incredibly well.

@CanMeHaveAPizza 5 лет назад

@HInc7647 5 лет назад

CanMeHaveAPizza yeah, it looks like you cannot handle your workload that you are having to stay late all the time might mean you are not working in an efficient manner (in the UK)

@MissVasques 5 лет назад

CanMeHaveAPizza Dunno about America but in Sweden it is not unusual for some careers, though it is paid. In overtime money as Well as ”flex”time which means that you can earn time off in hours or days. Sometimes it becomes required for employees that provide service for other companies, like financial, a emergency occurs and the tasks needs dealing with. Despite it being evening or weekend. The companies are used to getting this kind of help so they’ll choose another provider if they don’t get it. Or so I’ve been informed by a friend who works for a financial service provider. Which sounds like bad circle between expectations and the following pressure on employees.

I just started my first job out of undergrad in August and taking detailed notes at pretty much every meeting and then reviewing them at the end of the day or even 1-2 weeks later has really boosted my understanding of the job and helped me keep track of everything

No matter how a boss breathes down your neck and makes things uncomfortable.... remember they have to leave one day, either by transfer or retirement. c. Your life is not your job. Have other interests. Even if it's a pet rock, never live for your job. d. Learn the regulations that govern your career or workplace. It would save you lots of headache!! e. Everyone is not your friend. And you may not get along with all your co-workers however respect is important. Respect your superior and the cleaner.

Well done Chelsea. TFD has such great content and a sophisticated way of presenting topics. I would like to offer some additional insight to your target audience (piggy-backing on one of your recommendations). These is coming from my friends in senior manager roles in high tech. - Work within the hierarchy of management to contribute, get mentorship, and build your reputation. - Don’t go above your boss’s head without an invitation by higher ups to do so. - Balance working independently and asking for direction and assistance completing tasks and projects (I.e. don’t be needy). - Emotional Intelligence is more important than IQ. They make note of unprofessional behavior and base promotions, bonuses, and other decisions on what they observe. While some industries are built on disrupting the status quo, many are not. Subverting established systems will get you noticed for the wrong reasons. They see the millennial generation as offering amazing fresh insights to the work place. They welcome them, yet want them to be professional

Great advices, that apply to all age groups and levels of jobs. Professionalism must be observed no matter what industry you are working in, it is a matter of respect for yourself and for the ecosystem in which you are participating. I would add not to come out too strong with your fresh ideas, and get to understand your company’s processes and culture before criticizing it. Change management needs a more global vision and a gentle approach. We work with humans, and we need to have a collaborative mindset in order to reach our objectives. Great job Chelsea!

I think the "don't eat lunch at your desk" one is a bit silly and not the actual point they were trying to make. They mean "don't snack all day at your desk. walk around a lil bit." I guess the coworker point is valid, but I can't do all the small talk so sry.

This stuff is good to know. I'm autistic. I was raised blue collar and lived the blue-collar life until I realized I wanted more. More specifically I wanted a 9-5 Monday to Friday Business Casual office job in a large city. I've been attending university to get a degree that will help me reach my goals. This video has given me stuff to work on. I've been working since I was 12 so luckily I know most of this but now I know I need to start eating lunch with my colleagues. I have this perpetual phobia of or disdain for the smell of people's leftovers and tend to not breathe in through my nose when I eat in a break room or eat in my car. So I'll have to work on that.

@foreveraniowan 5 лет назад

I am a case manager in the social work field, and most of my work duties takes place outside of the office seeing clients. My coworkers and I only have a workroom available to us in our office when we are there. There is a lot of traffic in this room. Whenever I go to enjoy lunch or to actually socialize, it turns into a toxic environment where everyone complains about their jobs or the company. As a result, I've decided to avoid the workroom as much as I can and do most of my paperwork from home. Any tips for this situation?

@160p2GHz 4 года назад

My last job had no hours (it's product based work, they only care if you come up with the finished product, not how you get there) which is pretty typical in my field but it was extra sweet because my boss was not a morning person so she almost never came in before 10 and wouldn't even set up meetings before 11 because even 10 wasn't a guarantee.

I learned #7 the hard way. I met two women at work that taught me life lessons about trust. I encountered them a year apart. The first one got fired and the other one came to work soon after. She was much worse and was eventually fired as well but it took longer to get rid of her. My naive and caring nature blinded me to their lies and manipulations. They pretended to be nice and convinced me that we were friends, only to take advantage of my generosity for their personal gain. Once I realized what was happening I tried to avoided them. They still maintained their fake smiles while smearing my name to our coworkers. They were narcissists that put me through a nightmare.

@9:00 - I always try to be the first one in and the last one out, but that is because I have no confidence in my ability to keep up with higher functioning people. I need the early start, and I need to get to a proper stopping point before I can go. Arriving "on time," or being ushered out with a loud "All right, we're done, pack up and let's get out of here" when I have unfinished work gives me an incredible amount of anxiety and has driven me to leave jobs before when that was the norm.

@160p2GHz 4 года назад

The drinking thing threw me for a loop because in my field it's very very normal (so much so that people are starting to actively talk about how to make our events more inclusive for people who don't drink) and it's also very normal to get lunch or even a drink with a coworker of any gender. I left the field for a few years and didn't realize that wasn't typical. I happily agreed to get a drink with my boss not realizing how he was interpreting it unfortunately.

The dress code described in the video isn't universal. Heels and a skirt are counterproductive to lab work. It's important to dress like people around you and for YOUR job, which may mean wearing nice jeans and running shoes.
