7. Being polite isn’t the same thing as being friendly.
“Works well with others,” is a skill that HR departments cherish in employees, but exercising good company morale doesn’t mean you have to be BFF’s with your co-workers and in some cases it can even be harmful. If you have co-workers that happen to grow into friends then lucky you, but make sure to keep it professional while at work. On the other hand, if you can’t stand the sight of them, at least make sure to always be polite. You can’t always share your Miami vacation pics or be Facebook friends with everyone you share a shift with, but you don’t necessarily have to in order to get the job done.
