How to Fit In on Your First Day Of Work
Fitting in or becoming familiar with the environment and colleagues in a new office is something everyone wants to know. Many people do it without facing any problem but it becomes a problem for those who are not friendly in nature and like to stay reserved. However, no matter what kind of nature you have or what kind of behaviour you like, it is more likely to get appreciation from others if you get friendly with them.
If you want people like you and welcome you in a warm manner, then you have to take the initiative and try to become friendly to them. However, many people fail to create a favourable impact on their co-workers at new place. The reason is that they feel hesitation that leads them to become lonely in office and many people will not even have direct contact with him.
