Q re silly office politics
22 Answers
I love my job. However, it is the office politics I hate.
I work in an open plan office with a group of women. I get on okay with most of them but I sit all I am near the group that is the worst in terms of sh**stirring. (it is unbeleivable and they are so "clever" about it)
However, Im just getting so peeved with it all, (even though I try not to join in the gossip I can hear it nonetheless... and it is draining me....I feel bogged down by their constant backstabbing of others.
tomorrow I plan to ask my manager if I can move to a quieter part of the big open plan office
I do not want to name names or dish dirt ...theres no point in that I beleive. ...but I need to know how to convince him to let me move desks.
I plan to be honest and say that I find it difficult to work in that environment but decline if he asks me for names etc...
any other ideas on how to get my desk moved appreciated...
