Thats not really career advice.

Boss makes a dollar, I make a dime. That's why I shite on company time

Be a good teammate, and unless you have to for management type purposes, don't shite on your coworkers/boss.
I have seen far, far too many people just ruin their career because they got a bad teammate reputation.

Middle management is the fricking worst and will stab you in the back and shite in the wound so they can have an extra slice of pizza at the company Christmas party. Never hesitate to fire off an email letting upper management/owners/execs know what those shitstains are doing in the name of "company culture" because chances are they're oblivious to it.

Be polite to your coworkers but don’t involve them in your personal life / business

Meh, I always had/have my employees backs.

It is easiest to get a job when you already have one.

Never trust HR. HR is there to protect the interests of the company and the executives, NOT the employees.
Never sleep with coworkers no matter how appealing it might seem. It almost always ends badly.
Above all, completely unplug from the office as often as you can. Burnout is a very real thing.

Don't stick your pen in company ink.
Posted on 8/10/22 at 3:28 pm to momentoftruth87
don't discuss religion or politics

Loyalty is overrated. Don't ever put your company's best interest over your own.
Posted on 8/10/22 at 3:29 pm to momentoftruth87
Don’t become close friends with any co-workers.

I have gotten far with this. I do my absolute best to not even do the Christmas party thing with my SO. My work life and personal life are 99% separate and I like it that way. The drama queens (and Kings) bitching about their marriage or dating at work are the ones who don't last.

In my experience, blame shifting is rarely worth the energy or credibility/capital expended, even when you've got a pretty good argument for it. If it falls on your turf, own it and get on with it.
Take it on the chin, protect your good subordinates, and go back to banking goodwill for use the next time something arises.

I recommend women work hard at creating your own identity in your career before meeting a man.
Posted on 8/10/22 at 3:31 pm to momentoftruth87
Close your mouth while you weed eat.
Posted on 8/10/22 at 3:32 pm to momentoftruth87
it's shockingly easy to alpha/bully people. not something you should do often but occasionally it can be very helpful.
