Never thought that there would be so many haters in the workplace - what happened to being happy with your own success AND the success of others on your team.

I simply don’t gossip. I am genuinely a nice person but everybody knows this about me, If the conversation goes to somewhere I am not comfortable with , I respectfully start to navigate towards my computer. I don’t have time to hate or participate in any type of hate activities. I have so much to do that I do not concern myself with what others do. This is the same in my personal life as well .

PREACH! That’s why I tend to downplay accomplishments to peers and not engage in silly gossip or politics as much as possible. It usually will only come back to bite you. Everyone wants you to do well unless it means doing better than them =\

There are plenty of us who love our jobs and love our teams. It's simply that the haters are more vocal.

That is an interesting point. I love when people who do great things get recognized and rewarded, it makes me happy when my peers succeed, truly happy. I take pride in advocating on other people’s behalf.

But, I’m consistently very highly rated, wondering if I would turn into a hater if I was not, I’d like to think that I won’t, but again we are all human and have similar character flaws.

Maybe I’d just leave, instead of starting to hate on people. Once the people i work with stopped taking care of me for me taking care of them, it will probably just push me out. It’s a two way street and when that relationship breaks down, I will seek that dynamic elsewhere.

Question for moms. I’m getting married next year and have several close family members that will have babies ages 8-11 months old by then. What are some ways I can support the moms and make it an enjoyable experience for them? We have a separate room at the venue that I was thinking could be offered to the parents to use, or potentially hiring a babysitter for them (either at the venue or back at the hotel). I would love for the families to be able to come, as it is out of town.

Any advice on telling your boss you’re leaving your team? For context, I’m the 4th one leaving within a month (boring product, not toxic or anything), and the manager id be telling is my skip level, as my old manager left the team and I’m actually moving to his new team. Trying not to throw shade on my old (new? lol) manager bc I know that he spent all of his career in this department before moving. Is there any way to soften the blow, other than just giving a 2-3 week notice?
