When Did Teamwork Become a Blame Game? 🤔

Today was one of those days at the office that left me questioning everything about workplace etiquette. I gave a presentation, and when a colleague asked a question I didn’t know the answer to, I admitted it honestly and promised to follow up. Simple, right? But then, another coworker—let’s call her Linda—jumped in and said, "You should have known this information." I was taken aback and just replied, "Excuse me, don’t speak to me that way." That’s all I said, but later my manager pulled me aside and told me my response was inappropriate. Now I’m stuck wondering: Was I really out of line for standing up for myself? Is it wrong to expect a little respect in the workplace? I’m honestly feeling pretty distressed and could use some advice. Has anyone else dealt with this kind of situation? 😓 #WorkplaceDrama #OfficeEtiquette #CareerAdvice #JobCareer

New job tip: Don’t rush to bond with colleagues​

Fresh into a new job? Here’s a sincere tip: don’t rush to be besties with your coworkers. Building relationships isn’t something you can force! First off, when you’re new, the office vibe, communication styles, and personalities are all unfamiliar. Playing it cool and observing is your best move. Secondly, don’t bend over backward to please others. It’s okay to not be the center of attention right away. Thirdly, concentrate on getting your work done. Learn the ropes and get comfortable with your tasks. If you choose to reach out, do it thoughtfully. Feeling ignored? That’s normal! Lastly, don’t take it personally if coworkers seem aloof. They’re likely just swamped with work. Remember, your primary goal is to excel at your job, not to make friends immediately. #NewJobTips #WorkplaceAdvice #OfficeEtiquette #FocusOnWork #BuildingRelationships
