I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
Please know that we are not all bad. There are some very great people here that are willing to have mutual friendships.
I have a lot of workforce experience...what are your associates doing and why aren't the managers stopping it?
Frequenting salons, it amazes me the nature of the conversations, and what people are willing to share. It seems there are no boundaries and people left all their values and etchis at the door.
Of course this does not help you...I once decided I was going to take a sabatical in my mind. Oh I was physically at work, but I stayed pretty much to myself. It was a trade off because I was lonely. But I choose that over all the other BS.
People would ask me what was wrong and I would politely say, "nothing," with a smile.
When people would start gossiping I would remove myself from the area, and/or not engage.
If they asked my opinion of something or someone, my response was either, "I am not sure, or I do not know." Or, one way to stop it is to say the opposite. In others words they may say, "Jessica is such a bitch, don't you agree?" Then I would say, "really, you think so? Hmmm, I just don't see it."
It is hillarious and shuts them up. Keep it up enough and they will get the message. Misery loves company--no matterif it is your peers, or boss. Take an obvious stand with the suggestions I made.
I know we are at work a lot--and taking this stand will be hard, but you mark my words--you watch--someone in the salon will ask you about it, and will join the cause.
Hopes this helps...
I wear my iPod at work a lot.
