In this day and age, people often wonder if they should cross boundaries at work and be friends with coworkers. Personally, I agree that it pays to enforce boundaries and keep your distance with coworkers. This will help to create a more professional working environment
For starters, keeping your distance will help you be objective at work. Professional relationships should not involve personal feelings. For example, if a boss has hired a friend, it will be difficult for him to evaluate the work with a cold mind, he will think about how the friend feels
It’s also worth noting that person can get very tired of a friend on work because they are constantly together. For example, his friend is his colleague and they see each other all the time at work, but he also see each other on weekends, absolutely everywhere together. It’s very exhausting
In conclusion, it is important to have a pleasant atmosphere in the workplace, but it is worth keeping professional and distance. This will help to maintain fairness, avoid many conflicts and increase productivity in the workplace
