I don’t care what kind of job you’re in. It matters whether or not people think of you as someone who’s easy to get along with.

It absolutely does. We're social beings, after all. I used to be very antisocial, but once I learned how to actually talk to people, I wouldn't trade it for the world.

Not sure why you’re getting downvoted. You spend most of your time with the people you work with. If you can’t get along with them your life is going to be bad.
