The Enterprises TV Office Wish List is complied from sources
on the web and what we see in our own work environment. If we missed anything,
let us know. Below are a few things we wish for in 2014 for the office.
A truly communal kitchen or break room – Why not treat the
office kitchen or break room as if it is the one from home? Clean up spills,
wash your dishes, wipe the coffee creamer off the counter and clean up your own
microwave and/or refrigerator spills. There are no maids here. We all want to
use it but not at the expense of suffering with 5 days old dishes in the sink,
boxes of frozen food stored in the freezer and smelly leftovers in the
microwave.
Cell Phones – Please put cell phones on silent mode or at
the very least, on vibrate. Co-workers around you cannot concentrate it your
funny ringtones are ringing. If you must leave it on, turn the volume down and
take the call into an empty office. The only people one needs to speak loudly
to are the people with hearing loss. And about your kids – if they have to call
you after each and every class, you are a helicopter parent whose rotors need
removing. Are you really getting any work
done?
Personal comments/professional feedback – We all like to get
the occasional kudos for a job well done. It’s also nice to hear something
positive about an outfit worn. However, as close and friendly as co-workers can
get, please keep dating comments and anything sexual to yourself. The office is
no place for that kind of talk no matter how lax the management is. Professional
feedback should be just that – professional. No worker should have to endure
the silent treatment simply because the giver does not know how to give
feedback. There are plenty of articles online which
Enterprises TV recognizes there are many diverse work
environments in the US
and around the world. But courtesy and respect for each other and for
in subordinates is needed and wanted by everyone.
Clean up microwave spills, please. |
