In real life, we often see that some colleagues gradually develop into friends because of their work relationship. However, after all, the workplace is a place full of conflicts of interest and competition.
If not handled properly, the relationship can have a detrimental effect on the individual.
Therefore, in the workplace, even if you have a good personal relationship with certain colleagues, be wary of their behavior. Because they may cause you harm in the back.
First of all, we want to stay away from those who like to make small reports. Once this type of person becomes dissatisfied with you, they will not hesitate to denounce you to their superiors. And, once they start it, it's hard to stop. Therefore, you must always be on the lookout for them.
I once saw a post on the Internet, and a netizen shared his experience: a new colleague in their unit actually reported to his superiors many times. That's just the number of times everybody knows about it, and there may actually be more.
This kind of person, it's hard to expect them to change. Therefore, even if you have a good personal relationship, you should keep your distance and avoid giving them the opportunity to hurt you.
Second, we need to stay away from those who are inconsistent. They may be kind to you on the surface, eating and chatting with you, but behind the scenes, they may speak ill of you and ruin your reputation.
This kind of person is a typical two-facedness. If you find out who they really are, you have to be careful.
I used to work in a company and had a colleague who would gossip about other colleagues when we were having dinner. However, she actually has a better relationship with the co-workers she gossiped about.
Puzzles me deeply. Her behavior made me feel that her usual friendliness was only superficial, and their relationship was not as close as it seemed on the surface. This kind of person is not worth associating.
Whether in the workplace or in life, we should be vigilant and avoid getting too close to those who might cause us harm.
Only then can we better protect ourselves from harm.
In real life, if you have a good relationship with a colleague, but he makes your private life public, which has attracted a lot of attention and discussion among colleagues in the workplace, then it is best to avoid deep friendships.
At least, don't reveal your privacy to him in the days to come. Because his ability to keep secrets is truly worrying.
Let me take an example of an experience I had when I was younger. At that time, I was just entering the workforce and experienced.
I once confided in a colleague with whom I got along well and told him to keep it a secret for me. However, in just two days, my personal matter became a hot topic in the workplace.
That's when I realized that relying on others to keep secrets was unreliable. Only by keeping your mouth in your own hands can you ensure the security of your information.
In the workplace, if there are colleagues who are close to you on the surface, but behind the scenes they keep your private affairs open, it is best to avoid socializing. Because they don't keep their mouths tight, they can cause you a lot of trouble.
Of course, you shouldn't be in the company to put things that are not related to work and take care of them. It is wise to keep a certain distance and be cautious in what you say and do.
