Office parties- A neccesary evil? I am tired of others being favoured in office because they are regular to office parties/manager parties at other places. It wasn’t ever mentioned while joining that you have to socialise to get preffered over others. Was of the opinion that hard work should pay but seems like that’s not enough. I don’t even drink, always fail to match others’ vibes and energy. Something shady always happens at these parties when people get drunk and I really don’t wanna be a part of it

Hate Office Parties? Too Bad. You can’t progress fast without intermingling or gossiping about your workplace to a few selected co-workers (Personal Opinion)

Office politics will be in the office no matter where you go. Your best bet is to try and keep to yourself or hang with people who feel as you do. You have to find a way to tune it out and stayed removed from it. I find for myself, to make my personal like more meaningful, I don't hear what is going on inside the office building. Like Volunteering. Always meaningful and makes you feel uplifted. Start going to the gym. Once you take the trash out of your life, you enhance your personal life and it definitely turns out the office crap that goes on. Keep a positive attitude. Most negative people drown themselves in office politics. Start talking about the positive side of your life, the negative politicos will walk away. Trust me!

This is the prime and most common example of office politics, I think, because there are this small “gangs” that get formed, and give themselves authority of sorts??? for freshers, this is really scary. You end up trying to fit in and thats all, no growth!

I used to think hard work alone would lead to growth. But after years in the same role, seeing others advance due to politics, I realized it’s not just about talent. Sometimes, promotions are more about who you know than what you do. This can drain
