This Week in Jobs Pittsburgh: Workplace Woes

Editor’s note: Every week we ship an email newsletter featuring the region’s most exciting career opportunities. We’ve lovingly called it This Week in Jobs (aka TWIJ — “twidge”). Below is this week’s edition; it’s meant to live in your inbox. Sign up for the newsletter here.

Remember the office? That is, if you’re (still) remote and can think that far back. Maybe you miss it, or you miss the people, or you don’t miss it at all. But no matter which it is — or even if you just have a theoretical office in mind — you could probably predict what types of problems would typically arise there.

But then, there are situations that may make you go, “Huh?” Enter Ask a Manager, the online workplace advice column you never knew you needed.

Coworker going through the things on your desk? Messy boss? Or, even can I nap at work? Sometimes, a little perspective can shed lots of light, and AAM has plenty of it.

If you’re ready to tackle a different office (IRL or virtual) altogether, check out this week’s job below.
