Dreaming of holding someone else's employee ID - dream meaning with inherited lore
It may reveal that you are comparing your place with someone else's while thinking about a coworker's role or position.
You hold a coworker's or a stranger's ID and look over the name and department. For a moment, you hesitate over whether to return it or use it yourself.
Korean lore: Traditionally, holding someone else’s belongings has sometimes been seen as awareness of that person’s role or opportunities. Another person’s employee ID has been interpreted as a dream about comparing relationships and positions at work. (This interpretation comes from a folk-dream-reading tradition that sees holding or carrying someone else’s belongings as an exchange of influence and roles within a relationship.)
Through the mind: You may be comparing yourself, perhaps without realizing it, with a colleague’s salary, promotion, or workload. You may also be holding both a wish to learn from them and a wariness that your own place could become smaller.
