you might be an introvert, passionate about your job, or simply old enough to disregard friendships at work because you already have enough friends and a family.
The coworkers I like the most are the ones that come to work, don’t like drama, do their job and go home. That’s what I try to do.
However, there are always some established cliques who know how to play the unit / supervisor and get away doing much less, even feeling entitled to order you around, even though they are not your supervisor.
To people who experience this. How do you tolerate it? Even after changing jobs, this can happen at your new workplace, maybe it happens in every workplace?
Seriously. Unless they’re making your life at work more difficult, it doesn’t matter. Anyone doing the bare minimum is just working according to whatever agreement they signed with the company when they got hired. Anyone going above and beyond is just doing extra work for free.
