I recently found out an employee is leaving and going to submit their 2 weeks. When speaking to my manager, I accidentally let it slip out. I told her no one knows. She said not to worry and she would not say anything. I'm extremely worried that she will be obligated to say something to corporate. Would she? Should I worry that she could terminate me based on a break in confidentiality and unprofessionalism?

I wouldn’t worry about losing your job…. But what you did wasn’t right and it speaks to your character. Learn to control yourself and the information you share.

I appreciate the response. I honestly feel absolutely awful. It is not who I am, or want to continue to be. No excuses , but been under more pressure than ever professionally and personally. Realized I need to look at what is going on with myself and address it. Change and do better. Thank you

We all make mistakes esp when overly stressed. Not a one of us can say differently. You’ll forget about this soon enough if you learn from it, which it sounds like you have.

Think of all the ppl who make mistakes and blame it on others- those who don’t learn from their mistakes and cont to repeat them. That’s a common occurrence in my opinion.

You owned it, time to move on. You got this!

I agree that we all make mistakes. Beating yourself up will not improve the situation. Many people gossip about others in all kinds of environments. To learn from it, it is important to understand why we do this. "Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people.” Eleanor Roosevelt. Most of us gossip to build our own confidence. When you find yourself thinking about or talking about others, try to turn your mind to ideas (not that I can).
