Colleagues can help you with anything, but these 4 kinds of chores can't be touched, don't hurt yourself
In the workplace, mutual help and small favors among colleagues are very common. Sometimes even if a colleague proposes something embarrassing to him, he will not refuse it in order to maintain a good relationship with his colleagues. Although doing this will greatly improve your favorability in the hearts of colleagues most of the time, but sometimes, the favors you help may bring you a lot of trouble, especially the 4 kinds of favors, no matter how enthusiastic you are, If you want to make friends with each other, you have to learn to say no.
Busy beyond your ability
When a colleague asks you for help, you must clearly understand your own strength, do what you can, and help if you can. If you are out of your own ability, you must firmly refuse, which is actually for the good of others.
But there are always people who want to save face and suffer, and worry about rejecting others, and they will become unfamiliar. .
Colleagues can help you with anything, but these 4 kinds of chores can't be touched, don't hurt yourself
Some time ago, the leader asked Xiao Wang to make a promotional poster for the company. During the production process, due to technical reasons, Xiao Wang was not very skilled in handling the details of the poster later, so he asked colleagues for help, and Xiao Zhang wanted to befriend Xiao Wang. I readily agreed. After a while, I brushed Xiao Wang's complaints in the circle of friends: what is it, don't help if you can't help, don't be brave if you can't, is it interesting to take other people's work and then mess with it? It was only later that I learned that Xiao Zhang actually knew little about making posters. Xiao Wang kept urging him. When he was about to hand in the task, he said that he would not do it. Later, the two never contacted again.
Therefore, sometimes some busyness is beyond your ability, so don’t accept it. If you are busy, you are often the one who suffers in the end.
Need to entrust third-party help
Sometimes, in the face of a colleague's favor, you can't help, but you feel that a friend around you can help him, so you agree to help him. Some trivial matters may be fine, but sometimes, in the eyes of others, trivial matters are inviolable issues of principle, and you make a deal in front of your colleagues, what should you do?

In the office, Sister Zhang was busy with her son's elementary school all day long. She asked for relationships here and delivered things there, just to give her son a good study. One day, she complained in the office that the relationship was not easy to find. She was a new intern. However, Xiaosun said that he had an uncle who worked in the Education Bureau and could help Sister Li with the solution. When Sister Li heard it, she was overjoyed. In the next few days, Sister Li’s delicious food and drinks warmed Xiaosun, but in the end, Xiaosun still got slapped. .
It turned out that the work of the Education Bureau was not his uncle at all, but an elementary school classmate of his father, and the relationship was actually very ordinary. When they heard that they wanted to use their power for personal gain, they directly refused. When Sister Li found out about Huang, she thought of serving Xiao Sun for several days without getting anything, so she angrily crossed him off the list.
Therefore, in the workplace, if you can't help yourself, don't bother others with one more favor. Even if you can entrust someone else, don't slap your chest and make a promise. In the end, if you can't figure it out, it's yourself who will be embarrassed.
Help others make decisions
If a colleague asks you to help decide on something, if you can't guarantee that he is 100% satisfied with the result, don't get involved. The busyness of making decisions for others is the most troublesome and frustrating. Even if there is one in ten million uncertainty, don't rashly agree.

At the World Cup last year, my colleague Xiao Gao won a lot of money betting on the ball. Everyone bluntly said "The Prophecy Emperor". Colleague Xiao Li was also itching to see it. Helped him make a decision, saying that the gap between the two teams was too big, and this team had a bigger chance of winning. Xiao Li saw that his analysis was sound, so he suppressed more than half of his private house money. Who knew that the other team was upset in the end Winning, and someone who bought another team won tens of thousands, Xiao Li's eyes were red all of a sudden, and he asked Xiao Wang loudly: Don't you say this team will win? Also the prophet, bah, return my money.
In fact, people with discernment know that Xiao Wang is not at fault, but Xiao Li is just angry. In the end, the two of them don't communicate, and the office is very stiff. So in the workplace, if you can't help others to make decisions, don't do it too much and help others make decisions. When your decision is wrong, maybe not everyone can't afford to lose like Xiao Li, but some people talk It's okay to say it, and it's hard to say what's on my mind.
Busy that is not appreciated and understood
In fact, many people in the workplace have experienced this kind of busyness. They have helped each other, and the other party takes it for granted, and you can't say anything. And when you help a lot like this, others still think that you should do it, and fight against the guest to lead your army. At this time, you are really dumb and eating huanglian, and you can't tell the pain. People with bad character will never be grateful to you no matter what.

Therefore, before deciding to help others, we must first see whether the other party is worth your help. If it is not worth it, there is no need to waste time, and it is not your obligation.
In the workplace, being helpful is of course a good thing, and it can also make you have a better impression in the minds of colleagues, but sometimes, it is better not to help than to help.
