Re: Which books do you plan to read in 2020?

Re: How is everyone feeling? (31)

Re: Cliques in the Workplace!
I don't think it's necessarily cliquey to feel a bit awkward around colleagues you don't work directly with, especially in such a large company. I'd love to be one of those people who can just mingle...
