In offices, you have to take note of your language as unnecessary words, phrases can put off your colleagues and even bosses.

While speaking, you need to understand the other person is not doing you a favour and everyone is working together for an organisation. Even when you want to get something done, you have to be clear in putting your point across without sounding too bossy or offensive. There are chances that your co-workers take your words otherwise, landing you in a soup.
