Getting used to the relationship nature of "colleagues"
Busy as hell for almost 2 months now after my former senior retired and new senior not on board yet. A colleague in the team with more experience was assigned to take up the role to help a bit of a task of my work. He told me 4 times in a day that he was busy and really didn't want to take up my work and asked me to tell the upcoming senior later when he comes that I m overloaded.
When the new senior came last Friday, this colleague of mine pretended that he s very enthusiastic to help; and that he s been helping. Even the boss thought so. Suddenly he s very willing to help apparently in the attitude. And he offered to go to discuss with our senior with me to allocate some tasks of mine to him.
If we do so, I will probably be the one who's doing all the works, and he will be like giving advices like a quasi senior, taking away my credits.
Not going to ask for his help.
Even when I was assigned to help my colleagues, including this guy, with diligent work and effort, colleagues never appreciated and felt grateful. Everyone looks for themselves.
Looking out for risks and avoiding trusting easily, is part of growing up, growing wisdom.
