DEAR MISS MANNERS: I work for a municipality, and while I am fairly new to my specific job, I am not new to municipal government. However, this is a very small city and the work environment is close quarters.
When I don’t participate in my co-workers’ conversations, even walking away when a conversation around me takes a less-than-accepting tone, they tend to glare at me. I don’t really fit in and I feel uncomfortable at work all the time. GENTLE READER: We live in crusading times, so you have no doubt already been counseled on how to put your co-workers in their place, and on why you have a moral duty to do so.
