Here is a helpful tip.....
A jealous co-worker will always want other members of staff to see you in the same light as they do, therefore they spread negative ideas about you. They will say just about anything, as long as they associate you with negativity. It is almost subconscious.

Valuable Work Tips:
Avoid the gossiper.
This is a no-brainer but as obvious as it may be to some, sometimes we forget we have the option to physically look to remove ourselves from situations (and people) that attract this type of behavior. It's difficult to control workplace gossip, but you can control your reaction to it. If you notice one person who consistently makes trouble, take the necessary actions to have as little interaction with that person as possible. Avoid him/her as much as possible. The best defense is a great offense.

I disagree....everyone knows how much he sux now, he can't pull his normal games. He actually has to work and he is proving he's got nothing as a VP/Director and worse as a Salesman. As an a$$ kisser he is probably the best and until the folks up there stop giving him passes he will be there. But it will catch up. He is truly an embarrassment and I'm personally embarrassed I fell for his $ht. But its AAAALLLLLLLLLL good now bruh ;-)

Of course, he will... he has no skills to go anywhere else, and management is too dumb to move on from him. Nothing new there.

I think there is a course of CIA reject gossip courses. That would be really profitable.

We should have classes on how to keep some people away from customers.

I agree, I think we should have classes on how to handle gossip in the work place and how to dress for success.

I wonder if we can do an episode on what not to do in the work place. There are all kinds of compliance tutorials and I think we can add one on how not to get demoted.

Interesting thought... wonder if the tower jesters can make this into an Ask A Sad “episode”... but that would require using someone else’s research and opinion to pass off as their own.

Yes...we are trying to convert these worn out Segways into a mobile food option. Obviously you guys have seen Taco Trucks in this case we are doing Segway Sandwiches. The idea is to have as many as possible and training will be provided by the master malller himself which will include a tutorial on how to obtain & distribute gossip.
