Man, gossip really do destroy your reputation on the workplace!
Low level employees are the ones who gossip the most.

I have been both the victim of gossip and a perpetrator. It is indeed poisonous. I am working on myself to never do it to others ever again and to stop people in their tracks when they do it. My trust in others has been destroyed by gossip. I have started saying “ why are you telling me this?” when someone talks about others to me. This stops them in their tracks and if they want nothing further to do with me, good!!!

Gossiping ruined one my best relationship. As of then, I've decided to not talk about anyone who is not present and to not judge people close or strange about anything. Now I spend more time to notice things that happen in others and my life and stay focus on my behavior, goals and friendship.

People that have a habit of gossiping are bad associations. I avoid them and don't tell them anything ! They're trouble makers!

People gossip and spread rumors because they’re simply bored and have nothing else to do in their lives. They also couldn’t care less about other people’s privacy and mental health.

Gossiping cause so much hurt and can lead to family break ups, people can lose respect for those that gossip. Gossip is like HATE .

[beverleyreid]

I avoid gossipmongers like the Plague. I’ve been the subject of gossip for years. Both from family and the workplace. Only because I’m not a “conformist”. I choose not to be like everyone. I don’t listen to gossip and I don’t partake. Because of that, I can count my friends on one hand.

[itachiful]

I learnt to stop doing that when i was in my teens because i started to think about why i was doing it and what it said about me. Nothing good of course. So i stopped and started to obtaining better characteristics and traits instead in order to make myself a better person.

Gossiping is basically a drug like other bad characteristics people have.

I’ve been guilty of doing this and I think people are catching up to the group that I’m apart of doing this I need to stop.

[gapeach]

If someone said they have never gossiped they can’t be trusted neither 😂

[Earthtime]

Gossip is sucking the life out of me at work. So hard to escape .

[jjulian]

I think it has made me less trusting of People

[Happycookiez]

Hi Gossip, has destroyed my faith in family.I have always kept to myself and kept my circle small...because not everyone is worth the trust.People who are intimidated by you don't want others to like you and tend to spread a negativley charged and spiced up version of an ordinary every day occurrence.I surprised at how many people took part in spreading the gossip.Usually its people who aren't pleased with their own lived and are gossiping to make themselves feel better by dirtying someone elses name .What they don't realise is that at the same time they are also creating a bad gossiping, untrustworthy reputation for themselves.

[DoctorCarrieHall]

Believe me, the people that gossip don't realize that there are more people talking about them, than the person they are talking about. It's a form of insecurity, poor self esteem, and destructive. We all have been guilty of it at some point in our life. I make it a point to stay away from people who gossip.

[thebatman]

Gossip is toxic - Usually gossip makes them feel better about themselves based on there low self esteem . It makes them (so called important) which usually is based on an illusion on the way they wont to be viewed by others . I never gossip, never will and never did, not bad about others

[kellarenna]

Thanks. This really helped convict me. I've been struggling with this for much of my early teen/adult life. The typical mean girl stuff. I've lost many friends and ruined relationships. Tarnished peoples image without realizing it. it's been done to me as well. It's truly an ugly sin and I'm thankful the lord keeps the conviction on my heart, that let's me know the holy spirit is still working on me. God is merciful to me even though I dont deserve it. Thank you lord and forgive me for my ugly words about your children. I'm working with the holy spirit to leave this sin behind for good.

The professional gossip wants to destroy that person, "social bullying " they want to defame them, they are proud of their achievement.
