Have you ever dealt with unprofessional behavior from a coworker on a work trip? I'm on a week-long work trip with another designer and they got really drunk last night after our meetings. They weren't rude, but they were pretty flirty and said a lot of things I don't think they would at work. Should I mention it or just forget that it happened?

I would just forget it happened. Chances are they're just as embarrassed as you are, and if you bring it up you'll have to mention the behavior that led to it. I would let it go

My boss has video on every single meeting. Status? On. IR? On. Not presenting and just there to chill? On. Even when no one else has it on and knowing it’ll just be his face taking up the whole screen. I’m starting to think he just likes to think we all love staring at him.

This is twice now in back to back weeks my boss has asked me where the disconnect was in our communications because I didn’t deliver on what “was asked”, even though I know damn well what was asked and what was done were the same thing. I’m not sure if he’s changing the meaning or isn’t communicating what he’s envisioning or what but it’s embarrassing to be called out like that, and to have people think you’re the dumb 23 year old.

Hi friends,

I'm a new joinee in MSFT.

People in my team they don't come with me for breaks. (They blame the timings are different since they sit in crits but i don't think so because they have their own group of friends to go with)

Secondly, when my team members see me in cafeteria we expect they'll sit with us but people here are being rude they directly go and sit with their friends they don't call you to join. ( atleast they could have said they are accompanied)
