职场百科：办公室友谊7条不成文法则

5. Don’t play favorites

不要厚此薄彼

Try to collaborate with and get to know other co-workers, so that they don’t feel excluded. It’s nice to have a friend in the office, but don’t play favorites. Be very clear that you will not show preference or extend special favors, nor will you cover up mistakes or dishonest behavior and that you do not expect it in return. Remember that when you’re at work, you’re working. Don’t discuss personal situations or concerns at the office even if you have a personal relationship outside of the office. It makes other co-workers uncomfortable and blurs the office/home line.

试着和同事合作，并且去了解他们，这样他们就不会觉得受到排挤。在办公室有一个朋友是好事，但也不要厚此薄彼。你要清楚，你不能表现出倾向或者偏爱，也不应该帮别人掩盖错误或者不诚实的行为，虽然你也不期待他人以此作为回报。记住你是在工作。不要在办公室里讨论私人情况或担忧的事情，哪怕你们在工作之外有着很好的个人关系。这会让其他的同事感到不舒服，而且会模糊工作和生活的界线。

6. Diversify friendships

让友谊多样化

Many of us spend the majority of time at work, it’s true. And the common interests and dilemmas we share with our office friends may draw us together, but having a circle of friends outside of work is important as well. We need to turn off our “work brain” and separate ourselves from work regularly to keep stress at bay. Our “non-work” friends can help us to do that. It also helps us to cultivate a variety of friends, broaden our circle of support and keep our lives full and interesting.
