LPT - When someone tries to pull you into gossip at work, reply with one neutral line and a question that moves the topic back to facts.
Say: I was not in that conversation, so I cannot speak on it. What is the next step, and who owns it?
This keeps you out of office politics without sounding rude.
If that feels too direct, use one of these instead.
Option 1:
I do not know the full story. What is the next step?
Option 2:
I never noticed that about them.
Option 3:
Switch to positive gossip. I have always liked working with them. They are reliable.
