Is it really not advisable to be friends with colleagues in the workplace?

Some people are very clear that colleagues are just colleagues and will never become friends. However, colleagues are also part of our social circle. It can be said that we spend most of our time with colleagues. Is it really not necessary to be friends with colleagues in the workplace?

Do you make friends with your coworkers?

A survey conducted by Lao on Dongbao showed that only 17% of the respondents clearly stated that "I will not be friends with my colleagues, and I must distinguish between public and private matters"; 35% of the respondents said that "we will become superficial friends, but not close friends"; and the proportion of those who chose "we will make friends in the true sense" was 47%, ranking first.

There are friends to make at work

1. Good temper and friendly to others;

2. He is serious and capable, and worth learning from;

3. Good character, no bad behavior, no bad habits, etc.

We can see that we all really want to be friends with our colleagues. Why? Because good workplace happiness is basically 100% about dealing with colleagues, either dealing with superiors, colleagues, or subordinates. The bond between people comes more from whether each other's personalities match.

However, is the workplace mostly like what we imagine? I am afraid that in a competitive workplace environment, the current situation is not like this!

The so-called bad colleagues

1. Talking big but not practicing, just talking nonsense in front of the leader;

2. Those who mix public and private affairs and often use their personal positions to seek benefits for themselves;

3. He seems to get along well with you, but actually excludes you in private; 4. He takes your efforts for granted, and once you stop making efforts, he thinks you have offended him, etc.

The editor wants to say that, in fact, there are friends worth making in the workplace. There is no need to say too deliberately that he and I can only be colleagues. He and I can definitely become good friends.
