Answer 2

As long as you don't have to supervise you can do OK. Once you promote your best friend won't want you telling them what to do and people who have been there longer than you will let you know how the cow ate the cabbage.

Then I had to promote and become the perfect A$$ .

Answer 3

Don't get involved with anyone/date anyone. Stay out of the way, and don't try to be every ones friend. Let the people come to you, and if they seem like real people, talk to them. Otherwise keep to yourself. Don't tell people what to do, whether you know how or not, let them ask. This pisses people off, and it makes you look like a know-it-all to everyone, and no one likes that. Also don't buddy up with the boss. It will make you look like a suck up, and your other associates may not like you because of it. To put it simply, be professional, and allow people to give you ideas, and criticism. Listen to what people have to say, and make adjustments accordingly, but be yourself. Don't gossip about other associates, even if you trust that person not to say anything to them. It will get back to them eventually.

Answer 4

You can't! There are some people who just will not like it.

Try to understand their hang-ups even if you dont agree.
