A comment about oversharing in the workplace got me thinking…what are your best tips for protecting yourself in the workplace?

I’m starting a new gig in a couple of weeks and I really, really want to approach this one in a different way than all my other jobs. It’s super hard to see the forest for the trees, so I’m hoping to glean some wisdom from y’all! Gimme your best tips! For example, the comment yesterday basically said to talk only about kids, pets, and food with coworkers because it gives the illusion of sharing personal info without sharing any actual details about yourself.
