Oya my people,(not too formal a greeting but I figured its Friday!)
I had an early start
to my day this Friday morning. My itinerary was packed from between 0800hrs
till midday!!
See how tired I was..,
In an attempt to not
bore you with my boring itinerary, lets talk relationships.
Anyone who knows me(at
a VERY personal level), knows im not the guru in this sector(who is)- I try though.
I love to meet new people
(not always though), create fresh memories, share old experiences..,who doesn’t?
However, due to the
vagaries that are human nature, we have to be extra careful with the relationships
we forge, especially at work.
That nice lady at
the reception who is forever complimenting everything from your shoes, lunch
box to the way you pick your nose does not necessarily have your best interests
at heart. Be Warned.
That co-worker with
opinions from Nairobi to Timbuktu on everything and everyone should not be
given an ear. ‘He who speaks of others with you will speak of you with others’. Be Warned.
That older, very
motherly/ fatherly, colleague with advice on all the African rites of passage
from birth-circumcision-courtship-marriage and even death..listen to them BUT
share NOT a word on the shreds of your dirty linen. Don’t let people in too
fast. Be Warned.
In short, YOU SHOULD KNOW PEOPLE- literary!!!:D
My 2 cents;
i)
Be
cordial and ‘lenient’ in your relationships at work
ii)
Make friends..yes,
please do, by all means. However, be still in your conversation, keep your
language(body and spoken, alike) prim and proper and most importantly, concentrate
on your work.
LOL..they are actually TWO..my
two cents, that is!!
I don’t know about you but that is my IT plan. Yay? Or Nay?
Whats your plan(albeit regarding relations at work)? Do shareJ
..to my pictures of the day;
Chose this dress because..it was staring right at me in my wardrobe.. for a laid back Friday look. Smart casual sha!
