Professional Colleagues or College Friends?

What happens to an organization where those working for it act like college friends and not professional colleagues?

The first question you may want to ask would be - what's the difference?

Heck, there is a lot of difference. In fact, there are only differences.

Someone who is a professional will generally stay away from the following:
  • Go below a a certain level of decorum even if they meet the colleagues outside office
  • Interact in a manner which is too informal and using unpolished language
  • Watch funny videos with others in the office
  • Crack certain types of jokes with others
  • Spend the entire working day (almost) in small talk with others
  • Share too many personal and trivial details with others
  • Get drunk in office parties and talk non-sense with one another
