A look back at what we were talking about around this time in previous years:
One year ago…
my new team thinks they’re incredibly overworked, but they actually do nothing
can I tell my incredibly verbose boss he talks too much?
can I ask to be paid for my time off work when I interview?
Two years ago…
my employee is a great worker but she’s quiet and aloof
my husband’s boss was fired after he told the truth about her in an exit interview
a resigning employee gave me the best gift
Three years ago…
I’m getting stuck with extra work because I don’t have kids
did our new hire take their ID photo with fake face tattoos?
can I learn to thrive under a hyper-critical boss?
Four years ago…
I accidentally started a rumor about a coworker
how can managers spot people who are working two full-time jobs at once?
how can I tell my boss I work better when she’s not here?
Five years ago…
should I explain I quit on my second day because my coworker was overwhelmingly difficult?
I’m upset that my friend wants to work for the company that laid me off
Ancient times…
how do I ask the CEO if I can “borrow” his assistant for my projects?
my coworker keeps asking his wife for input on our projects
can I put World of Warcraft leadership experience on my resume?
can you be a good manager if you’re shy?
my coworker framed me to try to get me in trouble and now wants to meet for coffee
