ReplyDeletei think that list is dumb, if you and youre co-workers hang out outside of the work place and are close friends than its ridicules to not be able to talk about those things. Also if something youre going through has put you in the stage of post pardom depression then youre boss needs to know this because you need time off or your depression will negatively effect youre work. I think none of these topics are important. -Casandra
ReplyDeleteThe most important things NOT to share with a co-worker would be the obvious ones:
ReplyDeleteYour Personal Life, Politics & Religion, Negative Views and Comments. Though the rest are things that you shouldn't share, those are what I would strongly advise against.
I wouldn't talk about any of them with a friend or co-worker, simply because my opinion is my opinion and when they span topics such as those, I would rather keep it to myself than cause an issue
If a person wants to share things with a co-worker then thats their chioce. If they hangout outside of the work place and are friends thats fine, but if they usually don't talk at work then they shouldn't share those things. Some of the things I would just like to tkeep to myself and others I'd like to share.
ReplyDeleteIf you wanna share some personal things with co workers thats fine and all just watch what you say becuase if its about somthing that should not be shared then keep it to yourself i think the liat is partially right but all in all its fine if you wanna talk with co workers just make sure you watch the things you say and you should be good
ReplyDeleteIf your work life is your social life then your co-workers are obvisly your friends so why not share with them? Everyone shares different amonts of personal info with others, so too much info for one person maybe normal for another. As long as your comfortable with what your sharing and the person your sharing it with then it shouldn't be that big of a deal.
ReplyDeletei think that this list is very helpful if you are just starting a job. it could help you avoid conflicts with other co-workers. i think 1 and 4 are the most important becauseif you share your salary or work complaints it could either make employees jealous or make your boss very upset. these are probably the topics that i absolutely wouldnt talk about at work.
ReplyDeleteMy opinion on this is that yes some of these subjects are a bit stupid, but most of them are really good tips. Because yes you may be friends with co-workers outside of work but you still have to realize, You tell them that when you are outside of work because other co-workers probably do not want to hear what goes on in your personal life unless their creepy stalker dudes. Really all that needs to actually be known is medical history and only if you have a chronic problem such as, Seizures, Asthma, a severe/high risk allergic reaction to fish, nuts, or other foods, plus depending on your place of work, latex, and other supplies. That way people know if you have a break-out or a episode, that they know what is happening and what to do. But other than that these tips are great for newly starting employees.
