Q:One of my co-
The worker was engaged to the dentist.
She keeps sharing her advice on good dental care, from new dental floss to what brand of electric toothbrush is the best option.
If we want to buy a new electric toothbrush, she will even bring us a coupon to use!
My teeth are important but I don't need a daily tip.
Finally, I have to share her worst habits.
She has floss on her desk. Who does this?
Who wants to see these disgusting used strings everywhere?
I think this is a biological hazard.
I even avoid touching her desk or cell phone.
A: Many, many years ago, when I held a human resources position in a financial services company, I also received similar complaints.
One employee complained about a colleague.
The workers sat at their desks cutting their nails.
Nails and newspaper clippings drove the people around him crazy.
We all spend a lot of time working.
However, health issues should be addressed privately. If your co-
The worker wants to use dental floss at work and should be pre-treated in the bathroom instead of at the desk.
In the workplace, no one should see or touch the used floss (unless you work in the dentist's office ).
It sounds like your colleague is crazy about her fiance's career.
Maybe that's why she thinks dental care is such a hot topic.
However, even the most interesting topics have shelf life.
This may prevent her from sharing her dental tips if you give some subtle clues.
"Thank you for your dental advice.
I think I will leave this to my dentist.
I have to go back to work.
Or, "You should floss in the bathroom in front of the mirror.
I need a mirror to floss myself.
By the way, sir.
The nail clippers have never heard subtle clues.
His manager had to stop him.
