Like our favorite ice cream shop, co-worker and managers come in many different ‘flavors.’ We can’t like every one, but are still willing to ‘sample’ the ones we are unsure of. Make sure to give your co-workers and managers a fair chance if at first you aren’t enjoying working with them. You need time to become part of the team, instead of the ‘new kid on the block.’ This takes at least 2 weeks-month. So be patient and do the best you can no matter what’s going on around you those first weeks.

There are catch phrases we can use when confronted with tough situations. We call this ‘THE ICE CREAM SHOP.’

Ice Cream Sundae

Banana Split

Milkshake

Lemonade Something Sour Mixed with Something Sweet for a perfect result
