Raised or ignorant? 8 things cultural people will never do in the workplace

It is not enough to strive for a successful career, you also need to maintain good relations with colleagues and management, observing the rules of ethics. Sometimes it’s better to remain silent than to say a few words that can offend the other person and undermine his trust in you. If employees or superiors are suspicious of you, then you should expect big problems in the future.

Below is a list of 8 things that a cultured person in the workplace would never have done.

Compliance with typical courtesy rules

A real gentleman always drives a woman and helps her with heavy bags, but in the workplace do not allow yourself this. Come out and come in first, without opening the door for anyone. The same applies to girls wearing coats. In the workplace, women do not need help or gentlemanly gestures from a man and can even take this as an insult.

Being late without warning

You should always come to work on time, but sometimes unplanned things may appear, because of which the employee is late. In this case, be sure to call the boss or his entourage and warn that you are late.

Borrow work accessories from colleagues

According to office etiquette, no one can take things from the table of their colleagues without demand. In order not to constantly ask them things, determine which accessories you use most often, and put them on the table so as not to lose.

A knock on the door behind which there are more than three people

You can knock only when you know for sure that there are less than three people in the room. In a room with a lot of people you need to go without warning.

Crossing hands while talking with colleagues

At your workplace, monitor your body language. A conversation with colleagues with arms crossed and half-closed eyes is hardly perceived as a pleasant conversation.

Discussion of politics, religion and personal life

When talking in the office, do not touch on political or religious topics. Otherwise, there is a high risk that your relationship with a colleague will be ruined. Do not discuss your personal life or anyone else.

Drink coffee alone

An educated person will not drink coffee alone in the presence of his colleagues. It would be great to invite them to join you.

Please speak quietly or be silent

Instead of asking your colleagues to be quieter, use headphones. This will make it clear to everyone that you are busy and it’s better not to bother you.
