Your co-workers are judging you. Beneath a veneer of professional collegiality, they're taking note of the mess on your desk, how loudly you chew, even your word choices。

同事們會對你評頭論足。在團隊協作的外表下，你亂糟糟的辦公桌、你咀嚼時的聲音之大、甚至你的措辭都會被同事們記在心里。

Obviously, serious misconduct such as discrimination and harassment can lead to a job loss. But small irritants can hurt productivity and build walls between co-workers。

誠然，歧視和騷擾等嚴重的不當行為會導致你被解雇。但一些小問題也會影響工作效率，還會在你和同事之間筑起高墻。

'Those little annoyances, like having a really sloppy work area or being a disgusting desk eater, can loom large,' says Charles Purdy, senior editor at jobs site Monster.com。

招聘網站Monster.com的高級編輯查爾斯·珀迪(Charles Purdy)說，“這些讓人討厭的小事情都可能會成為大問題，比如工作區邋遢不堪，或者在辦公桌上吃相惡心?！?/p>

To avoid negative judgments from your co-workers, experts advise avoiding the following behaviors。為防止同事對你做出負面評價，專家建議避免以下行為。

巴結老板 1. Sucking up to the boss1. 巴結老板

The boss's pet who ingratiates himself at the expense of his co-workers incites negative judgments, says Meredith Haberfeld, a New York-based executive and career coach。紐約的高管和職業培訓師梅雷迪思·哈伯費爾德說，為博取老板歡心而不惜犧牲同事利益的人會招致不滿。

For example, Ms. Haberfeld consulted for a human-resources company where a junior employee pointed out his co-workers' mistakes after errors had been made。比方說，哈伯費爾德曾為一家人力資源公司做過咨詢，該公司有一名資歷較淺的雇員會在同事犯錯之后指出他們的錯誤。

'He created ill will with his colleagues because he didn't ever go to them to provide any insights while he saw the ship sinking,' Ms. Haberfeld says. 'Nobody wanted to work with him.'哈伯費爾德說，“他這種做法讓他和同事之間產生了矛盾，因為他看到船下沉的時候總是袖手旁觀。誰也不想和他一起工作?！?/p>

Trying to take work from your colleagues, or take too much credit, are also bad moves。把同事的工作攬過來自己做，或者把太多功勞歸到自己名下也是不好的做法。

'These people are seen as overly self-interested and therefore untrustworthy and difficult to work with,' Ms. Haberfeld says. 'At a certain point, to go further in your career you need to not just be liked by your boss, you need support from your peers and people more junior.'哈伯費爾德說，“這些人在同事看來是過于自私，因此不值得信賴，也很難共事。從某種意義上來說，要想在事業上有進一步發展，你不僅要贏得老板賞識，也需要獲得與你資歷相當以及比你資歷淺的同事的支持?！?/p>

消極抱怨 2. Negativity 消極抱怨

The occasional bit of gossip can relieve stress. Too much can make you look bad. 偶爾八卦一下可以緩解壓力。但說太多閑話則會給人留下不好的印象。

'Sometimes it's fun to talk about the boss, but the person who is always complaining is widely disliked as well,' Mr. Purdy says. 'Toxic negativity makes people feel like you are not a good co-worker. People associate negativity with you.'珀迪說，“有時候八卦一下老板很好玩，但總發牢騷也會引起周圍人的厭惡。消極抱怨會讓人感覺你不是個好同事。人們會對你持否定態度。”

According to a 2011 Monster.com survey, respondents reported that among their co-workers' impolite behaviors, gossiping 'ticked them off,' along with texting during meetings, being too loud and leaving a mess. Monster.com2011年的一項調查顯示，受訪者認為在同事的不禮貌行為中，說閑話、開會時發短信、說話太大聲和留下一堆爛攤子都“令人惱火”。

'Those are the kinds of things that people remember for a long time. You are really attacking the person and belittling them,' Mr. Post says. 'They see you as a bully, and don't want to interact with you.'波斯特說，“這些事情別人會惦記很長時間。你這樣做真的是在打擊和貶低別人，他們會覺得你盛氣凌人，不想跟你來往?！?/p>

Complaining about 'inappropriate' behavior that is, at worst, slightly off is also a problem. 'It feels really condescending,' says Art Papas, founder of TheFit.com, a website where workers complete anonymous surveys about companies' cultures. 'Just because you're offended that doesn't mean you have to broadcast it.'為頂多算是略顯不妥的“失當”行為大發牢騷也是一個問題。職業咨詢網站TheFit.com的創始人阿特·帕帕斯說，“這種行為真的給人一種居高臨下的感覺，不是說你受到冒犯就應該搞得眾人皆知?！甭殘鋈耸靠梢栽赥heFit.com上填寫有關公司文化的匿名調查問卷。
