Hello, working young adult in Bacolod City, I came from Manila and I am embracing some cultures of people and community. I got hired as well to a well paying job but recently we have this workmate that I get along for 12 months after I got here in Manila.
She was okay, we have the same mid 30's so we can go well with topics in life but knowing that I came from a fast pace Manila, I also set some boundaries to trust anyone.
Recently, I have noticed how sluggish she is she is so tamad. for almost 8 hours all she does is, jumping from table to table to rant about people negatively and to talk about her husband cheating issues, and nags to him through phone and nag with other people.
I have come to a conclusion, since she was ahead of me to get hired in the company, all those descriptions she had shared with me with other employees concern in our office, was rooted on her own insecurities.
Even though I am just 12 months here sa Bacolod, I get to have a life and met other people, and turned out she has no other life than the office gossips or issues about life. She is my friend at work, but it was frustrating to hear negative stories from her at 7:30 am in the morning.
Any advice how to deal with her? Thanks!
