Many people spend more time with co-worker than they spend with actual friends and families so it makes senses that they'd want to talk about something other than once in a while,
And it's and easy way to land yourself in hot water, talking about certain subjects in most office environment could alienate your colleagues and even cost your promotion.
HOW MUCH YOU HATED YOUR LAST JOB
"Even if someone had a truly horrifying experience in their previous industry or job, they should still be able to talk about their past employers in a positive way, if they rant about how much they hate their last job, it show a sign of immaturity when they can't at least share what the learn from their formal work experience instead of placing blame on others.
INTIMATE DETAILS ABOUT YOUR PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP
"while is perfectly acceptable to share your anniversary, family birthday or your child accolades for team sports, be sure to keep the discussion goes left field, with a conversation about cheating spouse or any thing that sexual in nature, it becames uncomfortable in a work setting and is highly inappropriate.
COMPLAINT ABOUT YOUR CO-WORKERS OR BOSS
"you may feel the need to vent your frustration to a work bud about something your boss or coworker did that really pissed you off, but it's never really worth it, office gossip spread like widefire, and what you say to one person can easily get round to all other employees in the department, you don't want to end up costing yourself a promotion or raise because you bad mouthed your boss that one time ago.
CRITICISM OF THE COMPANY STRATEGY
"Refrain from bad mouthing the company strategy or business decisions because you might one day find yourself promoted to a possition which is your job to advocate for the company direction, I've coached employees who would complain about their company leadership without considering that they should speak to the company leaders, constructively about there concerns, and when they are promoted to their ranks of leadership, they are suddenly stuck in an authenticity crisis! Should they sticks to there complaint or now buy into the company talking points? Neither one is the best to true to your concerns and express then in ways that drive the business from which ever position you are in.
MEDICAL ISSUE
"We're not talking about sharing that you had a routine dental appointment-its the more serious medical issues that you should refrain from discussing, similar to marital problems, people often don't know how to react or respond in work environment.
