Question

Which one of the following is not true concerning socializing in the workplace?

A. Socializing can keep you from reaching your performance goals.

B. Socializing can lead to favoritism and friction in the workplace.

C. Socializing can throw your horizontal relationships out of balance.

D. Socializing can actually increase productivity.        

Answer 1

The correct answer is D. Socializing can actually increase productivity. Although socializing outside of work can be productive for the work itself later on, socializing in the workplace can deter you from working and can ultimately be bad for the company. If you're always running around form office to office having fun and not working you're not doing your company a favor.
