Correct answer: Unexpressed resentments can build and hamper work performance and morale.

Why: when resentments are left unspoken they tend to fester, reducing trust, cooperation and motivation. That lowers productivity, increases mistakes/absenteeism/turnover and creates a toxic atmosphere that harms team performance and customer outcomes.

Important caveat: expressing resentments should be done constructively — not by lashing out at customers or colleagues. Use timely, specific, calm communication (I‑statements, examples, proposed solutions), involve managers or HR when needed, and consider mediation if issues persist. This helps resolve problems before they damage morale or performance.
