Are such polos allowed( look good) at Office ?

This is why I secretly avoid 1:1s with my manager!

Hello Fishes, Our project management asked us to return the assets by Oct 1st. They are forcing us to pick any upcoming Saturday's to return the assets, that to we need to report the office by 10 am to return the system. Does this "return to pick up" option in Ultimatix still works or we need to go to office only to return the system.? Tata Consultancy
I have completed HR discussion round they were asking about my LWD..I said it is officially 90 days.. so should I discuss with my present company manager about LWD before or after getting offer letter
PS: I will be released early as I am sitting idle in the project..one guy in the project got early release.

Do your best work. If it beats theirs and they get upset and take it personally, they’re not quite getting what their job is
Crush ‘em
It’s not your fault if they can’t take it. Getting beat sometimes by better ideas is part of the job.
Just be nice.
Survival of the wittest. Embrace it
Competition is good for making better work. Sore losers are not.
Had that at my last agency. We ended up genuinely cheering each other on toward the end. We (very slowly) swallowed our pride and turned it into how many good ideas can we could all come up with. We also weren’t scared to talk about our ideas to each other, give feedback and ask for help. It was more of collaboration vs. competition.
Maybe they brought you into that account to light a fire under the ass of the other writer because s/he is lagging and needs to get with the program. It’s ok to be better than other people. Just be gracious, but if they give you attitude, it’s not your problem, it’s theirs.
such a shitty, old-school mentality. i hate the “duke it out” bullshit. sorry, OP, but good luck.
Just keep killing them with ideas then :)
Anyways, that's how it normally works isn't it? Two or more teams present ideas, eventually only one is going to be produced, that's how things work 🤷♂️
It's okay to be competitive but if the person hates you for it then that's on him/her
The vitriol is building. How do I keep the peace?
Can you work together on the projects and share ownership?
👆🏼 Sadly, no. The expectation of “these two teams are duking it out” is clear. I have been nice, but it’s becoming hard with their attitude
Just ignore him and do good work
Lemme guess. You work at Deutsch LA. Classic MO
I feel ya, as long as the playing field is even like no bias, then I would embrace it. Like others said competition = better work
Isn’t that just part of the game? It’s up to you both to realize it’s just biz and not personal.
