“If you don’t like anybody, ignore him or don’t even see him. You can do this in your personal life but unfortunately you don’t have that luxury in your professional life. You can’t ignore people, you have to face them by having discussions and many official forums but all without letting them know your annoyingness. Actually you have to be sort of hypocrite at that stage.
Your personality should be uncontroversial for everybody, else you are forming or trying to form political groups which are rarely acceptable to organizations. Abstain any discussion about company; don’t share your thoughts when focus is corporate.
Jealous people are everywhere; they try to pull your legs. That’s how incompetents progress. People, who know you, really know you. If a third person commenting about you, he in fact is portraying himself. Best thing is not to take notice of them. They won’t take long to expose their true faces to everyone.” This is what my boss lectured me when we were having a discussion about a person trying to noise my image.
And now this is the golden line, my friend advised me while I started my professional career, “There is no friendship in professional life, expect it and you are screwed”.
