Every workplace falls prey to politics at some time or the other. There is unnecessary gossip, ever-changing rumors, hushed whispers, eavesdropping, etc. At some point of time, invariably, you are either the victim or the culprit. This may affect your identity and dignity, and ultimately lower your morale. While at home, you face no such problems. You may not even be aware of what your colleagues are going through, even if you do interact via conference calls and video meetings, the conversation is strictly professional. Everyone is rather tired of the rat race, and the absence of office politics can provide a welcome respite.
