How to Be Popular at an Office Job

Most office workers want to work at a place where they are well liked and respected. Having a lot of friends at an office job can make the day go by quicker and allow you to socialize after work with your coworkers. Use the following to help increase your popularity at your office job.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

1. Go out of your way for your coworkers. Put on a friendly face for everyone that you encounter. Ask how they are doing and smile while talking to them.
2. Keep gossip to a minimum. You may lose popularity points if you are known as the office gossip. Only relay harmless bits of gossip to your coworkers.
3. Play the politician. Never take sides in disagreements between others in the office. Try to mediate the situation and if that doesn't work, stay out of it.
4. Show that you care. Send a get well card to a sick coworker, offer to take over some work for someone that is overloaded or simply ask about the person's welfare. If people notice that you make an effort, your popularity is likely to increase.
5. Host an event at your home. Invite your coworkers over or arrange a night out after work. Make sure that you talk to everyone at least once during the evening.

Tips & Warnings

• Studies have shown that being a popular at work can also affect the amount that you are paid. Popular individuals have a tendency to make more.
• You may find that not everyone in your office is susceptible to your charms. You may encounter one or two individuals that simply don't like you.
