Workplace No-No’s

At your job, you may be allowed to do certain things such as dress casually, use the Internet (for work of course), or eat at your desk.  However, there are actions that you need to be wary of.

Here are some no-no’s on the job:

Falling asleep at work – You can’t be a productive worker if you’re napping, not to mention appear to be professional.

Stealing from the office – Office supplies are meant to be used at work.  Remember, you do have a job, so buy your own things for home.

Spreading a rumor about a co-worker – If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all.  Office gossip can not only lead to hurt feelings, but a potential lawsuit.

Consuming alcoholic beverages while on the job – Having a drink away from the job is your business, but doing so on the clock is unprofessional and could lead to poor behavior and/or performance you’ll probably regret later.
