Unspoken Office Rules: It’s no secret that this is the age of social media. And all of us tweet, we post, we share, and we like comments and pages. It’s all fun until our social media pages lead to our own professional demise. Not to forget this is the most common mistake professionals tend to do, that is to take advantage over the workplace guidelines. Even if your office is cool about employees using social networking sites, use it when required and don’t overdo it. Your 20s is the time to do all this, but it’s not professional at workplace. And most importantly avoid using messaging apps like Whatsapp and BBM all the time because some companies have the procedure of monitoring and reporting all your internet usage activity to their reporting managers. So be rest assured that even a speck of dirt can be used against you.



Official Communication: Putting everything on email is one rule you should always practice. Having a record of daily activities will make you better organized at work place and most importantly you’re not in the receiving end when it comes to complaining about job not done because you can prove it with your electronic records. Therefore, sending the right information, checking all mails on your official id, replying to all mails, will help you to be in the loop and not clueless.
