8 Things You Should Never Do in Office
There
are lot of people who and a lot of articles/books that will tell you
what you must do in office. But there will be very few who tell you what
not to do.
This
is where we come in. Every office has its set of dos and don’ts, but
then there is also a set of general don’ts that you need to keep in
mind. We are here to list these general don’ts for you and we are sure
they will help you stay clear of getting embarrassed in office.
1. Peep into someone’s laptop/desktop
The
most annoying person in office is the one who peeps into his colleagues
laptop screen. Make sure you are not this annoying person. No matter
the urge to see what other people are up to, you must save yourself the
embarrassment of being labelled the office’s peeping tom.
2. Walk around like you own the place
It
is great to be confident, but it is a sin to be cocky. So under no
circumstances should you walk around like you own the place. It is
advisable to keep your smartness in check and not throw your weight
around. Keep it easy going and genuine, and everyone in office will like
you instead of bitching about you.
3. Be loud
Oh
my GOD!Please don’t be that loud person in office. Keep your voice
level in check, do not play loud music and stay clear of all things
loud. Loud people annoy colleagues like few other people/things do.
Train yourself to talk softly yet be audible.
4. Gossip
We are sure you have heard this one before. It is imperative to stay clear of gossip,
but we all know that this is not possible. Every nook and corner of
office is full of gossip mongers. What you can do however, is keep your
tongue in check. Don’t bitch everyone out to everyone, and don’t allow
others to christen you the gossip king.
5. Stealing
Every
office goer at some point in time is inclined to steal some office
stationery: a pen, a paper, a folder, or a print out. Doing so once in a
blue moon is okay, but don’t make a habit of it. Stealing is bad and
you will be answerable and payable if you are caught.
6. Lie/Blame others
When
you find yourself in a soup or in tough situations you will be inclined
to lie or shift the blame of your wrong doing on someone else. If you
do this, you are putting not only your reputation at stake but your job
too. Always stick to the honesty policy and play fair.
7. Share your personal problems
No
one lives an easy life. Everyone has their share of personal problems
just as you have yours. It would be naïve to share your personal
problems with your work colleagues. We suggest you leave these issues at
home and come to office with a clear mind. Remember, your colleagues
aren’t your personal agony aunts.
8. Make out
Irrespective
of how hot that colleague of yours is, making out in the office is just
unpardonable. Making out is an extremely private affair and an office
is the least private of places you know. Besides, if somebody catches
you in the act, you can bid your job farewell.
This
is our list of general don’ts in work environments. Avoid committing
these errors and you are sure to stay in the office good books.

General Secretary, General Secretary, P4 FNPO were representing staff
side.
The following are the broad understandings reached in the Committee meeting.
1. Postal Assistant
(i) The
proposal of the Staff side to upgrade 11395 single handed post offices
and 6719 Double handed post offices to the status of LSG will be
considered.
(ii) The
present Post Masters in 3732 triple handed post offices and also the
present LSG to the extent of 6989 will be upgraded to the status of HSG
II.
(iii) The present HSG II and HSG I posts to the extent of 3352 Posts will be amalagamated.
(iv) A
separate identification to the extent of 30% of HSG I posts as non
functional Group ‘B’ posts with grade pay of Rs. 4800/- will be formed.
(v) 1/3rd of the total LSG, HSG II, HSG I will be carved out as Postmaster Grade-I, Grade-II, and Grade-III respectively.
(vi) The posts of System Administrators will be made as LSG vice versa.
(vii) PO & RMS Accountant will be made as a separate channel of promotion by reidentifying the Posts of LSG, HSG-II and HSG I posts.
The RMS, Circle office and SBCO staff will be considered as per the ratio finalised in respect of Postal Assistant cadre.
The
Official side accepted the above proposal and assured to consider the
above and come out with the final decision shortly. As requested by them
a common proposal of the Staff side has been submitted to day itself.
2. Cadre review for Postman & MTS’
(i) Since
the MTS is the common category for all Central Govt. employees, there
is no possibility of bringing them under cadre review.
(ii) As functional Justification could not be identified for the Postman and also the higher pay granted by the 6th CPC,
the official side did not favour any cadre review. However official
side came forward with the proposal if the Postman cadre opts out from
the MACP scheme and agree to take the percentage wise promotions it will
be considered. It requires a deep study and the Postman unions will
discuss the issue and come out with the proposals.
The chairman conveyed that the next meeting will be arranged in short notice to finalise the proposals.
3. March to Parliament
The
Federal secretariat endorsed the decision of the Confederation National
Executive to organize March to Parliament on 26.7.2012 and one day
token strike thereafter.
The Federal Secretariat has fixed the quota target of participation in receipt of our union to the extent of 2000.
All Circle Secretaries are requested to organise the comrades as per the following quota fixed to each circle.
AP 100 Kerala 50
Assam 25 M P 100
Bihar 50 Maharashtra 100
Chhattisgarh 50 North East 25
Delhi 200 Orissa 100

H P 100 Tamilnadu 100
J & K 50 Uttar Pradesh 300
Jharkhand 100 Uttarakhand 100
Karnataka 100 West Bengal 100
All
Circle Secretaries and Divisional Secretaries are requested to book
their Journey tickets in advance so as to reach on 26.7.2012 for
particiting the rally. NFPE has organized an All India convention on the
same day at Delhi
on 26.07.2012. Similarly the AIPEU GDS (NFPE) has organized a Massive
Dharna before the Parliament demanding departmentalization of GDS on
27.7.2012. The comrades of Delhi Circle
desire to arrange a felicitation function to Com. K. V. Sridharan,
General Secretary on the eve of his superannuation on 27.07.2012 evening
at Delhi. The comrades who desire to participate both the programmes may book the return tickets accordingly.
4. Associate membership to AIPEU-GDS (NFPE)
The
Federal Secretariat held on 21.5.2012 has accorded the status of
associate membership to newly formed AIPEU GDS (NFPE). The General
Secretary has also requested all the Divisional Secretaries/Circle
Secretaries seeking their co-operation in formation of branches at all
levels.
Since
the fresh verification of membership in GDS cadre is offing and
notification for that effect may be issued at any time. It is realiably
learnt that the recognition to the office bearers has not been accorded
to the AIPEDE union due to the vertical split in the All India
Conference and there is every possibility of another Membership
verification at any time. It is our prime need to strengthen the
organisation which is associated with NFPE and declared to work under
the guidance of P3 leadership right from Divisions to All India level.
All
Divisional/Circle Secretaries are requested once again to extend full
cooperation and unstinted support to the newly formed AIPEU GDS (NFPE).
With greetings,
Comradely yours,
(K. V. Sridharan)
General Secretary
