you might be an introvert, passionate about your job, or simply old enough to disregard friendships at work because you already have enough friends and a family.
The coworkers I like the most are the ones that come to work, don’t like drama, do their job and go home. That’s what I try to do.
However, there are always some established cliques who know how to play the unit / supervisor and get away doing much less, even feeling entitled to order you around, even though they are not your supervisor.
To people who experience this. How do you tolerate it? Even after changing jobs, this can happen at your new workplace, maybe it happens in every workplace?
As a fellow introvert I had to learn the skill of drawing my boss’ attention to my work without feeling like I was being arrogant or begging for attention.
I kept a list of things I thought I had done well or were above and beyond, and discussed it with them in performance reviews.
