How Do You Remain Neutral At Work?
Answers:
Simple, just treat everyone the same, believe nothing that you hear and half of what you see, and when they start in with the gossip you say nothing don't even make a sound, try to change the subject or just walk away.
Uh oh, working with a bunch of females is never fun! It's bad for girls too. There will always be sides to choose, there will always be those quiet emails swapped with code names and always those glances from one cube to the other. Mmm hmm. The only way you can be neutral is to tick them ALL off and tell them you're too busy to get involved with non work stuff. Then you'll be the subject of the quiet emails, but at least you'll be left alone.
Stay out of the gossip! When they start making senseless watercooler chat...stay out of it! GUaranteed somebody in the group is two faced. They will go back and talk, tell what you said and convieniently leave out what THEY said. Trust me. Also, you dont want to be known for being part of a clique either...
It is possible. I used to work in an office of mainly women, and even though I'm a girl-I didn't like it. Too much drama and catty things going on. I just stayed out of it. At first people tried to get me involved, but after they realized that I had no interest ( I would simply just listen and not comment or walk away or change the subject) they never got me involved. I was left out of all the drama, and they still respected me. I was often the one that people knew they could trust because I wasn't into the gossip thing so if they had something confidential-it stayed that way. It's an empowering thing to be able to do.
