- I’ve been in your shoes on my job and it can be draining., the complaining and negative gossip. I don’t indulge in negative topics anymore. When negative topics come at me, I respond with positivity. If you keep positive answers I bet a lot of it will cease because when people are complaining and being negative and we respond like them, we become the coal that keeps the fire burning. I’ve noticed by me staying with positive responses, the conversations aren’t the same and there’s not a lot to talk about anymore on the negative aspect, but we are still friends. I had to change the direction of our conversations.
