How we make our Boss happy?

Raymond J.  Sells Agent
1. Get to work a few minutes early, especially when you're brand-new in the job.

2. Bring a pen and notebook with you on your first day of work, along with any paperwork your new job requires.

3. Take notes. In addition to noting the facts, passwords and instructions you are given, also jot down the names of the people you meet and their roles and contact details.

4. Whenever you meet someone new at work, introduce yourself.

5. When someone helps you out or teaches you something new, thank them sincerely.

6. Check in with your new boss every few days if he or she doesn't check in with you. If they prefer that you check in via email or text, make that adjustment. Give your manager regular updates on what you're working on, and learning.

7. When you have a rough plan for your approach to the role, share it with your boss and get their feedback. Lay out your 30-day, 60-day and 90-day goals. Make sure you and your boss are on the same wavelength.

8. When you have an important conversation with someone at work, send an email message to follow up and confirm what was said. Take the extra second to use "please," "thank you" and other pleasantries in your messages — it makes a big difference.

9. Resist the urge to tell your co-workers "We handled this task in a much smarter way at my old job!" Wait until you have credibility with your new teammates to suggest improvements, and when you do make recommendations, make them in a positive, "Maybe we could try this!" way rather than by comparing your new shop unfavorably to your old one.

10. Offer to help when someone is stuck, even if your subject matter expertise is low. Just say so. Sometimes people need moral support more than anything else.
