My paralegal colleague and I have been handling the same types of cases for two years and we've developed this weird competition where we both want to be seen as the better researcher but we never actually talk about it and I can feel it making us worse at our jobs when we should be helping each other. We're supposed to be covering for each other but instead we're hoarding good cases and good information.
More people experience this than they realize.
You and a coworker are secretly competing instead of helping each other, and it's making you both worse at the job.
