If you join a team, and one specific member is combative to your inclusion, take note.

I failed to take note when i first got to the country i'm in now, but i won't make that same mistake a second time.

If you downplay my recommendations, rooted in history and experience, I'm going to get the "learn the hard way mallet".

If your linkedin is vague or missing altogether, that's the first flag.

If coworkers "rat" out my conversations to you, that's the second flag.

If you take my recommendations and use them in a meeting as your own, that's a third flag.

Don't be toxic folks, work together so we all can do less long term. That's the whole damn point of being a TEAM.

Bullies, and toxic coworkers that dismiss experienced new team members, take note.

Your time, is up.
