Women, Check Your Attitude At The Door. Period.
I’ve seen it all too often. *Betty comes to work with an attitude because she’s had a bad morning. She fought with her husband over who was going to take the kids to school. She fought with the children about getting dressed for school. She fought in traffic to get to work. She ruined her pantyhose in the car while driving to work, after she spilled her coffee on her cute little skirt. And if that’s not enough, when she does get to work, she finds the marketing reports on her desk from her boss saying they’re wrong and need to be corrected.

A bad day coming? More than likely, but who wouldn’t after a start to a morning like what she’s had? What to do?
DO NOT WHINE AND COMPLAIN ABOUT YOUR MORNING TO YOUR CO-WORKERS!!!
Ladies, the place of business is simply not the place to discuss the way your morning went and all what’s wrong with the world. Women (some) have a tendency to go on and on and on about things that are insignificant to the work place but are very important to them. This is very innappropriate. Period. No one cares and no one should care about your personal life when the company is paying you to do a job. Coming in to work, whining and complaining and having a bad attitude is UG-LY. This is one of the reasons why women get such a bad rap in the business world and people prefer not to deal with them.
Do men whine and complain? Sure they do. Do they talk about their personal lives? Of course! But what sets the two apart is sometimes women who go on and on and on and on…you get the picture. Before you know it, half the day is gone and no productive work shows for it because of the recounting stories she has to tell to her co-workers.
So ladies, let it go. Check it at the door and come in to work to, well, work. That’s what they pay you for, right?
Right.
* The name Betty is only used for illustration purposes.
