chubba wubba comment goes viral

Boy, are we tough on each other! We criticize just about everybody and everything. We talk about one another’s hair, clothes, body shape, and minor shortcomings.

We scrutinize every little word and laugh at each other’s mistakes.  I learned to do that after watching caustic comedians in my youth.

I think too many of us slip into negativity as a default behavior at work. We hear others being negative so we join in to stay out of the crossfire.

We all need to remind ourselves to stay out of that negativity and instead be kind, nice, and thoughtful.

How kind are you at work?
