[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No idea what is meant by authentic self. I suspect it's a red herring people use to deny what the real problem is. You're just tired. The issue isn't the workplace but you.[/quote] A lot of us have authentic selves that don't jive with corporate workplaces. Your authentic self is who you are with your spouse or best friend. I'm witty and snarky. I tell funny stories. I can't stand slackers, but at work I have to patiently guide the slackers along and counsel them to improve. I'd probably rather yell, but I would never at work. I think a lot of POC have different selves too. One of my coworkers has an accent and dresses completely different than she does at work. Even styles her hair differently.[/quote]
