Is It Okay to Talk Politics at Work?

The first presidential debate was last night…but, will you talk about it at the water cooler today? Or will you try your best to avoid the topic completely? American workers were asked if they think it’s okay to talk politics at work. Only 1 in 4 said no, never. About 50% said it depends on the situation and less than a quarter said it’s totally fine. According to the poll, cities most receptive to political talk are San Francisco, New York, and Los Angeles. It also found men are more likely to share their opinion than women, and age matters too. People between 25 and 40 were more likely to say it’s fine.
