How do I fit in at my new new job?

Start out by saying hello and greeting everyone you meet in the mornings. A simple good morning and smile will go a long way. Next learn the culture and what is expected from the boss and the other employees as well. Learning what you should and should not be doing is important. With a little time you can learn your role and place in the new job.

-keep an open attitude to learning from everyone. -Keep aside position-related-ego issues -have a welcoming attitude to comprehend everyone's behaviour -learn to adapt to differences contrasting your life before this new job -don't be too strict to yourself in the start, because reputation and trust build with time -help others by being polite and warm -stay punctual to the rules at least in the start, first impression is the last impression -look for opportunity or a challenge to take on -ask for help as and when required, even from juniors -share things like food, news, coffee, and so on -avoid behind-the-back complaining of anyone, whether done individually or in a group -talk and share stuff around you, that gives an indication that you are cool to mingle Keep Smiling :)

Whenever I start a new job/career I treat everyone coworker/client/ customer/boss everyone, how I'd want to be treated, with kindness and basic human respect. Once you've had a few shifts and you get to know the above mentioned you'll start feeling tons better and realize that without too much effort, you are fitting in. I understand as well that depending on the job it can be hard to fit in especially right away but keep in mind that some people are there to work and not make friends and that's nothing at all against you. Others are there to work and make friends wether it be just work colleagues or friends for life. Just keep in mind that if someone doesn't like you it's not you everyone is different and unique and that is ok.
