Just Shake and Make Up Already, Will Ya?

by Nadene

We all have that one person at work who we do NOT get along with.  We clashed in the past over a disagreement.  That person threw us under the bus in a meeting or in front of our boss.  That person didn’t play fairly or completely disrespected us.  We hung on and never forgot it.

Guess what?  Time to let it go!

Why am I posting about this?  I was in a 2 week-long “tiff” with a dude at work.  He sent me a rude and uncalled for email and I decided at that moment I wasn’t going to work with that individual any longer.  After 2 weeks of avoiding my coworker, he called me and apologized.  Not only that, he provided new background information which made his email more understandable.  After getting through a little drama, we are going to make an awesome team!

Are you holding a grudge with someone at work?  Are you ready to release the negative energy that is not serving you and make a productive move to let go?  Tell me about a time you confronted a peer and it returned positive results.

No enemies, man!  Especially at work.  Nothing feels better than “being the bigger person” and facing the issue head on.  I challenge you to make amends with one person this week.
