There was a big fight today in my office between left wing and right wing voters. As a manager, how should one approach this in future?

Keep politics out of the office. Waste of brain cells

like

Politics shouldn’t be discussed in office. I had people on my team gossiping like children, I had to have a team meeting and have them all sign corporate policy acknowledging that they understand gossiping is against policy and next occurrence would be a write up. It may not be in policy but I would call hr of direction on how to deal going forward.

All you can do is tell them to knock it off and save it till later. People will talk about whatever in the workplace, sports, the weather, their kids, and so on. That's harmless, even if it get annoying. Disrupting things by fighting about politics just doesn't work. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but there's a time and place and at work isn't the place.

Put them both in a time out.

Hilarious 😆

Hi Fishes,

l interviewed for Deloitte (India not USI) in January, and accepted an offer letter with DOJ of 25th April, later HR asked me to join on 11th April for which I agreed. Now I haven't received the revised offer letter or any links other than BGV and Pre-Hire form from Deloitte and now the HR is not even picking my calls or responding to emails.

Any advice on what to do?

We recently sleep trained our 7 month son. He went from waking up multiple times during night and taking only 30 minute naps 3 times during day (most cases nursed to sleep or rocked to sleep or took a drive) to sleeping 12 hours at night without interruption and two 2 hour naps and one 45 minutes nap during day. We both love that he is getting enough sleep and well rested on one hand. On the other hand, we are now wondering if he is sleeping way too much.. contd…

Alright auto fishes, I’m in the market for a entry level luxury car. Open to used or a lease. I don’t plan to use it as a daily driver, live in an HCOL.

Doesn’t have to be a European badge. Thoughts?
