I’d love to hear them.” 5. Don’t Say: “Are you pregnant?” Another golden rule: never ask how old someone is. One, it’s not your business. Two, it can come across as ageist, even if you don’t mean it that way. Instead, it’s best to focus on other appropriate ways to get to know your coworkers. Say this, instead: Nothing is ever impossible. When you say this, it limits yourself and your team to find creative new ways of approaching work. Say this, instead:

Unless you want to be like Sarah from The Labyrinth, stop saying “It’s not fair.” It presents as whiny and unsupportive in the office. It’s often used when someone else is promoted, or someone got a raise, and another person didn’t. Instead of saying this, make a case for yourself, and see what happens. Say this, instead: Gender discrimination comes in many forms in the workforce for today’s working women, not just in communication alone. According to a recent Pew Research Center survey, about four in ten working women (42%) in the United States say they have faced discrimination on the job because of their gender. It is an ongoing effort to battle these gender biases and build awareness around the topic with employees, coworkers and managers. There is still a lot of work to be done. The gap in how communication is perceived in the workplace often creates a divide between men, women and non-binary folks, who are all learning to navigate communication and learn what is appropriate.

It is no secret that communication is important in the workplace.

This means that the more “successful” or assertive a woman appears, the more she is judged negatively and disliked for it,” Forbes says, “Being criticized harshly for success consciously and subconsciously impacts how strident, self-assured and successful a woman wishes to appear.” This phrase implies the possibility of failure. Instead of saying “I’ll try,” it’s best to speak with confidence and set reasonable deadlines for yourself so that you can accomplish the tasks at hand. Say this, instead:

15. Don’t Say: “I told you so.”

Lead with “I have a question” or “I am not sure about this, could you help me?” 15. Don’t Say: “I told you so.” If someone is pregnant and speaking about it, you can offer a “Congratulations!” Otherwise, don’t ask these types of questions. 6. Don’t Say: “Because I’m in charge.” If it’s not the first rule, it should always be the second. Never comment on a coworker’s appearance — especially in a negative way. They could be going through something, or simply didn’t get enough sleep, but this comment can come across as offensive. Instead, keep it to yourself. Say this, instead: Beautiful Artwork and Designs. Well-crafted illustrations and designs that lay the groundwork for you to create your own frame-worthy masterpieces.
