It might not always be a conscious decision, but people definitely play favorites at work, especially when there's intra-office competition involved. So on today's episode, Liz and Larry cover all the bases on workplace favoritism, from the steps you can take when you're not your boss's favorite, to the variety of drawbacks it can have on your business. Then, our very own Larry Seal walks us through the Myers-Briggs Personality Test, which can teach colleagues how to work better with everyone in the office (it also reveals a surprising link between Liz and Celine Dion). And a job opening at Penn & Pencil sparks some heated competition between coworkers, especially when management begins to get involved.
