Professionalism At Work

Most of us try to put our best foot forward at work.

Sometimes, though, we may be alienating our co-workers (or boss!) without even knowing it.

Here’s Inc.com‘s list of the thingsthat make you seem unprofessional at work:

Showing up late or calling in sick a lot  Your boss isn’t the only one who notices.  Pretty much everyone does after a while and they’ll gossip about it.

Complaining all the time  Whether it’s work-related or personal stuff

Asking too many questions  You run the risk of looking incompetent and people get sick of having to help you do your job.

Being messy  Which might mean a messy desk or leaving old food in the fridge

Being arrogant  Especially if you start acting like the boss and telling people how to do their job

Bragging  You can do it if you get a good review or make a killer sale…just don’t do it ALL the time.

NOT dressing up for work.  Casual Fridays aside, you still shouldn’t show up looking like a slob.

Getting too personal  It’s easy if you think of your co-workers as friends but things like family problems and your sex life should be off limits during office hours.

Being loud while people around you are working.  Especially if THEY’RE on the phone.

Swearing all the time  Even if your company is pretty laid back about it.

Well…#10 knocks us out…what do you have to work on?
