• You get to keep all your current memories and knowledge.
  • Everyone/everything else is a clean slate.
  • You’re starting now (not going back to the past).

    I wouldn’t make it obvious who my work besties are.

    • It’s assumed that you’ll gossip with that person, so you won’t get any info that they can’t hear.
    • If they’re more than 1 level junior to you, it will take longer to get promotions and raises since you’ll be “junior” by association.
    • If they’re the same level and in your team (and they’re a poor performer), you won’t get promoted because it’s assumed you’ll play favorites as their boss.

    Sucks. Some of them were not professional and it impacted my optics. I need to pick better friends and set healthier boundaries.

      The idea of work friends is a real concern. It only ever works against you, I’ve found. Be friendly with everyone, but don’t become friends.

        Hasn’t been my experience at all. I have made some big moves in my career thanks to making friends at work and staying in touch.
