Your relationship with your manager and your boss can very well make or break your career. However, what this dynamic should be is still up for discussion. While some advocate for a more honest, open, and, well, _human_ relationship, others believe that only by being thoroughly professional do you leave the best possible impact. And only then can you be respected by your superiors. At least in theory.
Redditor u/Kaisawheelofcheese75 went viral on the r/antiwork subreddit when they shared their opinion about employees (over)explaining themselves when their bosses want them to switch shifts. In their view, far too many members r/antiwork write up “paragraphs and paragraphs” explaining themselves to their bosses in great detail. According to the internet user, this oversharing, being honest too much actually hurts your career in the long run.
