Do you shy away from conflict at work?

If you work any job, you're bound to fall into some sort of conflict here or there. Either you have a boss who's making trouble, or you have a coworker who is bugging you. I like to stay out of any kind of conflict when it comes to work, because I don't want to lose my job and I also don't want to risk getting into trouble. So I stay out of conflict unless it directly involves me in some way.

What about you though, do you shy away from conflict at work? Or maybe you embrace it and use it as a way to learn? or you are fine with conflict because you can hold your own?
 
Yes, I tend to shy away from conflict at work. Sometimes I even back down if it helps avoid unnecessary tension, though I try to stay professional and handle things calmly when I need to.
 
Yes. I prefer finding compromises or addressing issues calmly rather than engaging in direct confrontation. It helps maintain a professional environment, though sometimes it means I have to carefully balance speaking up with avoiding unnecessary tension.
 
It is always a good thing to remain at safe side. I would also try my best to avoid conflict at work. This is a very important thing because you should not get into trouble.
 
Inter-departmental conflict? No. I try to get involved and help calm the situation down. I'm a leader and I take a leadership approach to these things.

Inter-departmental issues isn't a good thing with the type of work we do - criminal and fraud investigations. We all need to get along so that we can do our duties in a timely manner.
 
I have been work from home professional for most of my life. I have very little experience working in an organization. However, I did have one issue. The employer demanded that I go on a work visit during the weekend. I denied and he threatened me to fire. Without thinking much, I quit the job. I don't want to get into conflict but if there is a conflict, I always try to defend myself even if it means to leave the work
