When Did Teamwork Become a Blame Game? 🤔

Today was one of those days at the office that left me questioning everything about workplace etiquette. I gave a presentation, and when a colleague asked a question I didn’t know the answer to, I admitted it honestly and promised to follow up. Simple, right? But then, another coworker—let’s call her Linda—jumped in and said, "You should have known this information." I was taken aback and just replied, "Excuse me, don’t speak to me that way." That’s all I said, but later my manager pulled me aside and told me my response was inappropriate. Now I’m stuck wondering: Was I really out of line for standing up for myself? Is it wrong to expect a little respect in the workplace? I’m honestly feeling pretty distressed and could use some advice. Has anyone else dealt with this kind of situation? 😓 #WorkplaceDrama #OfficeEtiquette #CareerAdvice #JobCareer
