Whacky Work Tales

hey. I recently joined a new job and I've already got a situation to deal with. A male colleague keeps hitting on me, and wants to hangout during lunch, how do I avoid him??

I am new to my job and my colleagues are giving me extra works to do just because I am a rookie. How can I set my boundaries and let them know that I will be not doing their share of work??

I think my boss has a crush on me. He has become extremely sweet towards me, more than he is towards anybody else. But my colleagues told me the otherwise that he hates the way In work. Whom should I believe??

There is a male coworker who constantly makes unwanted advances and flirtatious comments towards me. He keeps trying to get me to go to lunch with him, despite me turning him down politely numerous times. I'm starting to feel uncomfortable and want to avoid any one-on-one situations with him. What is the best way for me to firmly shut down his advances without creating an awkward workplace environment?

My boss is giving me extra work on weekends despite of knowing the fact that I recently got into a relationship. Is he jealous? or is he taking revenge from me for something. What should I do?

I have a coworker who is extremely two-faced towards me. Whenever we interact directly, she's overly nice and friendly to my face. But multiple trusted colleagues have mentioned to me that the moment I'm not around, she routinely talks badly about me and bitches about things I've done or said. This duplicitous behavior is really off-putting. I'm worried about creating unnecessary workplace drama if I call her out directly. What's the best way to approach this situation - should I have an upfront discussion or kill her with kindness in hopes she stops the petty gossiping?

I got into a relationship with my co-worker recently. But we always wanted to keep it a secret. But now my entire department knows about it. Apparently, a jealous collegue of mine spread the news after she saw us together. Should I ask her to stop messing this up for us??

okay story time: i’ve had the BIGGEST crush on one of my coworkers but it’s not something i can really bring up because they’re seeing someone else (it’s a serious relationship) and i’m pretty sure my coworker sees me more as a bestie than anything else. Valentine’s day is coming up, which means my work crush has now started discussing plans of what they wanna do with their partner on valentines and how they’re gonna approach it. it’s an absolute nightmare to say the least. 😖😱 How do i get away from this without making my own feelings obvious??

today a coworker asked me what my plans for valentine’s day were. we’re not friends, we’re not even close coworkers. how did they assume it was okay to ask me a personal questions about my dating life? im not seeing anyone at the moment, but i don’t like the idea that my entire office is in on my business. am i being over sensitive? or was i right to get a little defensive?

I have just completed my masters and the good news is that just few days I had been called for an interview. so I was all excited and stuff until I was asked about coding. Me being me didn't know what to do and lied that I was good at coding. However now I'm really scared as it's my first job and I hope that it doesn't turn out to be my last job. Now the only option is to learn that skill. How do I learn coding in 2 days. Pls help. I'm in a mess.
