Everyone in the workplace is always down for “collaboration” and “think tanks” because they’re looking for the next person to steal ideas from. That’s a fact. Now, obviously not every member of the workforce is looking to pull a fast one on their intellectual peers, but it’s important to note that these people are out there, like sharks in the water.
