Vocation Station:Maintaining Boundaries
at WorkHaving and making friends at
work is an important part of asuccessful career, but it can behard to walk the line betweenpersonal and professional.Avoid issues that could makeanyone uncomfortable, such aspolitics, race and religion. Bewary of office gossip. If aproblem arises, talk to thecoworker involved as soon aspossible; waiting or talkingabout it to someone else couldonly cause other issues.Remember that your friend atwork may become your boss atsome point and this could cause
some difficulties. Above all, treatthose around you at work withrespect and trust, as yourbusiness relationships ultimatelycontribute to the amount ofsuccess you have in theworkplace.
