Co workers are most definitely not your friends…especially in an office environment. They are like little snitches just waiting for their chance to advance their own careers/standing in a company at the expense of others. A good tip in general to to avoid the overly happy and positive people like the plague as they are 100% bad news. The best advice I could give is do your work, keep to yourself and leave at the end of the day.
I can agree with a lot with what you are saying! I am mostly talking about the work outings that they expect you to attend and afterwork activities that seem to be forced upon us. But you should most definitely keep to yourself and choose whether you want to participate in extra curricular activities with them or not.
💯💯 I’m being attacked privately by two of my coworkers I thought I was cool with, just because I stay to myself. They don’t know I was told that they talk about me behind my back. I may do generic conversations like what are your plans for Christmas? Or how’s your kids, but when the gossiping and back biting starts I put my headphones on so I guess that’s a problem for them but oh well lol
It's difficult but doable. Know the difference between a friend and an acquaintance. Your co-workers are not your friends, and they're NOT your family. This is NOT a Vin Diesel movie. We're not friends or family, we're acquaintances who put our lunches in the same fridge.
My duke thanks for keeping it 💯 with this subject! At a job,take care of your obligations & make your $! Friends are irrelevant! They don't pay the bills or the pay rent/mortgage!
Unless you make direct eye contact with me, or shout me out, you’ll honestly never hear a thing from me. I used to be that person who would talk to everyone, but with enough bad experiences, I know my peace of mind is more important than pleasing other people.
Happy to see you back 👏🏾🥰 This is some great advice. My sister and I were recently talking about this, because I heard a couple of my coworkers calling me stuck up/ditzy. They literally said it loud enough so I could hear them 😂 Only because I'm not interested in their daily gossiping, weekend trips and after work hangouts. Personally, I like to keep to myself. Love these styles of videos, more please!
omg I'm just trying to let you know as best I can that it is okay to just disconnect and do your own thing at or around workplace activities. thanks for sharing and for the support Dominique ❤️
I've heard two of my co-workers laughing and gossiping about me and one of them called me a stupid mother fucker. It took all of me not to go off on them and a co-worker to stop me. It wasn't worth losing my job so I told the supervisor.
I’m friendly with my coworkers. But I eat lunch alone. But in the past I have made great friends at work. We’re still friends and it’s been over 15-20 years. They even hook me up with my last job. Unfortunately company had a couple of rounds of lay off.
This is one thing I’m constantly reminding myself. My problem is not so much energy, but that I confide in my coworkers a little too much sometimes. Especially recently when I ended my one and only friendship of 10 years, there’s no one to really vent too 😂 But I have to remind myself that my coworkers aren’t my friends and some of them can and will use what you say against you.
Work isn’t a burden..the people are. Just because your friends are coworkers don’t mean it’s like that for the rest of us. Coworkers are jealous snakes and like to copy all your hard work, it’s disgusting but I enjoy that I keep doing better than them and they keep hating and complaining because I surpass them within a month and they have been doing it for years.. oh well. 😂😂😂

You said it best Jeanie baby!
Well said 🙌
I've been accused of being standoffs. I'm okay with it. I may have to work with you but I'm protecting my peace.
I love the way you said it👌
I quit my job, but my coworkers still want me. I don't need them. They even call me, but I ignore them.
Sure!!
Would you talk to people in grocery store. Exactly my point.
We’re all there for the same purpose, but for different reasons.
Doing what you dont wanna do is self betrayal

My story exactly
I dont talk to anyone at work just come in and come out.
Right. Come to work on time, collect your paycheck, and go home, that's it.

I understand, I've been called worse:/

Nobody really is.

Do your job. Make your money. Go home. Nothing else.
That's right.
Most of the close people in my life I met at work. It’s a shame that you look at work as such a burden. You need to be doing something you enjoy.
Work isn’t a burden..the people are.
