Getting along with those you work with

The Enizio Team truly is a team. Aside from rocking hair and makeup together, we know that no matter what, we can count on one another for anything in and out of the studio. A good relationship with your boss and co-workers can make for a healthy career. This is not always easy, believe us, but getting along is just a matter of tolerance, respect, and courtesy. Heres 5 tips we practice at Studio Enizio that can maybe help you get along better with those you work with

1. Be friendly- Even if you don't know someone very well, or tend to be quiet around others go out of your way to say hello. If by chance you have nothing to talk about , reaching out a little bit will let the other person know you care. Practicing this technique will also help you become a more approachable person. 

2. Have some patience- If you are an employee who has a hard time dealing with a few of your co-workers or if they just seem to rub you the wrong way, there is a good chance that they are not meaning to do so. Instead of making a big deal out of it, address the situation in a constructive manner that will still keep the peace. 

3. Don't Gossip- If you ever happen to overhear people gossiping about another co-worker do your part and keep any tidbits you m ay pick up to yourself. Likewise, if you have a problem with another person confront the person yourself or a manager. This will save you from unneeded drama and guard you from unwanted information coming back to haunt you. 

4. Don't pre-judge a person- It's easy to form quick opinions of other people you are working with. Make sure to give everyone a chance and respect their ideas, input and work ethic, even if it does not match yours. Working with other types of personalities can be a great learning experience. 

5. Don't be a hypocrite- Don't complain about others doing things you may be doing yourself. If you happen to see another employee that takes too much time off, focus on yourself to call in less often, and take fewer unneeded vacation days. If you see another person spending most of their work time on email, personal phone calls, and other personal business, focus on yourself again to make sure not to do those things while on the job.
