I'm interested in stepping up and getting involved in decision-making on my unit, but there's definitely a clique that runs everything. Is it even possible to join committees without getting sucked into the politics? Just curious whether it's like that everywhere.

It’s definitely possible to get involved without getting too tangled in office politics, though it can take some strategy. Focus on committees or projects where the work itself is the priority, rather than the power dynamics. Building relationships across the unit, showing your reliability, and contributing constructively can help you earn respect without needing to join a “clique.”

I don’t know about everywhere but it’s much more prevalent. The clique comes from working closely together everyday. It starts with lunch together then the workload. All are working together to accomplish the goal.

Company considers the woman a riskier bet due to possibility she’ll take maternity leave — and considers the man less risky for his ineligibility to take as much leave. 🤷

Comforting others:
When someone tells me bad news regarding their health, I say everything I am supposed to say (I’m sorry to hear that, I’m here for you, etc) EXCEPT “everything is going to be ok”. Because I can’t guarantee that and I really don’t know if everything is going to be ok. I was taken aback recently when a friend told me I am calloused and cold-hearted for not being able to say those words. Is she right? Should I start saying this for the purposes of providing comfort only??
