Anyone have advice on workplace politics? Simple:
MYOB=Mind your own business. If you hear any good office dirt, just keep it to yourself.
Don't get involved in office squabbles. Especially women ones. Women are extremely caddy.
Don't spill alot of your personal stuff. People are gossipy.
Remember just because you work with these people doesn't mean you have to be friends with all of them. That said, don't be anti-social either.
Don't date co-workers.
Go into work with as good of an attitude as you can, try to get along, do your work, FReep and then get the hell outta there!
Most importantly; DON'T GET DRUNK AT THE OFFICE (CHRISTMAS) PARTY LIKE THIS GIRL!

Never, EVER get drunk at any office function. In fact, keep yourself away from alcohol at all times when close to the boss.
