Tips for a happier workplace

You don't have to be friends with your co-workers, but you do need to be friendly. Read on for fresh ways to make your office a kinder, gentler place.

♦Give a happy "Hello!" in the morning.

Do you walk into the office, eyes down, and immediately start work? If so,you are likely to find that co-workers ignore (忽视) you or avoid you. 11__________ It's really amazing how fast this small gesture can change unfriendly workplace relations.

♦Learn the art of small talk.

Ask your co-workers about their interests-their favorite music, movies, and books, as well as their hobbies. 12__________ Once you know what catches their imagination, pick up stories from newspapers or magazines to help start conversations.

♦Ask what they think.

People love to be asked for their opinion, so go out of your way to ask."What do you think of this report?" or "How do you think I should deal with this situation?". 13__________.

♦Avoid gossip(流言蜚语).

14__________ So return the favor.When a co-worker walks towards you bearing a piece of gossip, respond (回应) with, "Really?" and then change the subject or get back to work. If you don't respond, the gossiper will move on.

♦15.__________

To win friends at work, start with good office etiquette (礼节). There's nothing more upset to busy co-workers than to have their emails and phone messages ignored. Your silence doesn't just make their jobs harder, it also conveys an unpleasant message: You are unimportant to me.

A. Stop complaining.

B. Return calls and emails immediately.
