Do u have any problems with your workmates at your working place before?

i just had one just now. it all started since yesterday. i argued with Subject A over a small matter and i was angry and told this matter to Subject B about my argument with Subject A. i was just wanted someone to listen my problem. after that, i never believed that Subject B told Subject A that i saying something bad behind her then both of them just argued with me, a big one! now i am not angry of Subject A about always argued with me but i am angry of Subject B for telling Subject A about my complains. not only Subject B told her about this but she team up with Subject A and argued with me. huh! i am feeling stressful now. what should i do? my mum told me that if i know this kind of person cant keep her mouth shut then dont talk to her anymore unless working topics. it is easy when my mum said that but it ia hard for me. cause i have to face her every 8 hours per day! 5 times per week! it is very hard to face her with silence! did u ever face such problem before? and how it ends? plus my friend told me to be ok with Subject A cause she is just all mouth and talking and talk less with Subject B cause she almost causes me a huge trouble.

shortly, Subject A just big mouth (forgivable) while Subject B back stabber (unforgivable). do u agree?

    Do not discuss anything personal with your co-workers. It is okay to discuss general things, such as current events but not what happened between you and Subject A to Subject B......its a mistake. You will see that when disputes arise your co-workers are not your friends. When you are working with your co-workers be aloof and cautious; you must keep your personal life to yourself.

    Think this,

    A. small minds talk about people all the time;

    B. average minds talk about events;

    C. great minds talk about ideas,

    E. and the wise Person doesn't talk.

    Which one are you?

    About subject A & B, just forgive theme, make your day, job a lot more pleasant , and not just for you but for everyone. Believe me, I've been there too!

    Some rules for you to know:

    1. Never argue with a woman, because women are born to argue over petty matters and win.

    2. Never tell another person (Subject B) about the argument, because you can't be sure if Subject B is a friend of Subject A, especially if Subject B is a woman.

    3. If you have to choose, never choose to be a victim by remaining silent, especially when you're arguing with a woman. Make the case an issue and bring the case to higher level of management (this applies ONLY if you have allies in the office, or else just apologize early in the argument and then keep quite).

    4. After the argument ends, keep your cool and act like nothing happens. Continue communicate with Subject A and B ONLY about work matters. If they don't cooperate, then they are at fault. Report the matter to higher management.

    5. Don't act tense or else Subject A and B would think you've lost and a weakling good for future office shooting. Just relax and be happy and enjoy the work and other colleagues. The depression will transfer to Subject A and B.

    As for me, I will never mix with Subject A and B as both practice office politics. But I'll still communicate with them over office matters ONLY, not personal ones. If they try to be friendly, sorry la I'm not that forgiving. Who knows they might back stab me again in the future. I'll just act uninterested, as if they are total outsiders.

    initially concern A and you had a situation. I even have long undergone something in addition and that's no picnic interior the park. the place you made your mistake became you could desire to have stored the war of words between the two certainly one of you. whilst including somebody else to the combination not at all works. I even have had small problems with a co-worker and then she became on the water works like i became basically the worst guy or woman interior the international and it got here right down to her be conscious against mine. What all of it boiled right down to became she did not choose to artwork and nonetheless had to gets a commission all on a similar time. i think of that all of us want that sometimes yet you could desire to artwork.
