	Description:		Okay, obviously the answer is “no.” But people can get super competitive about ultimately trivial things, especially at work, so it’s time for Liz and Larry’s sage advice for people who are dealing with aggressively competitive coworkers. Johnny’s boss accidentally created an intra-office contest during a reorganization, and Johnny wants to know how to stop it, while Tori’s jealous coworker is ruining a great new job. Then we answer some questions about one of the many negative consequences of overly-competitive offices: burnout. Anxious to Succeed is, well, anxious to make their first major project a success, but their obsession is quickly becoming a problem, and Anonymously Stuck is considering leaving a career they’re good at, just because they’re sick of competing for sales and promotions. In this episode, Liz recommended the book “What Got You Here Won’t Get You There: How Successful People Become Even More Successful,” by Marshall Goldsmith, and you can listen to it for free with a free 30-day trial at Audible.
