Why We're Petty at Work

A podcast convo about why we all need to calm down

What is going on with pettiness in the workplace? Where’s all the hypersensitivity coming from?

This week on the Mode/Switch Pod, we confess our own pettiness and passive aggression. But we also talk about why pettiness is, a little paradoxically, important. Petty behavior is no small thing. It’s big data.

So get in, haters, we’re going to figure this petty thing out!

Survey question:

When you need to write a wickedly, brilliantly, rage-full and un-sendable email response, do you craft it in the actual “Compose Email” draft space? Or do you write it in a Google doc? Or whiteboard it? Or—what?

Do you trust yourself to tap out a mad text that you will never send?

Answer this poll by sending a non-petty email response to this email or to themodeswitch@gmail.com.
