- Never complain to anyone inside or outside the company except your spouse. They won’t care either, but it might make you feel better.
- Always have a positive attitude even if life looks bleak. Hold your head high, shake hands, look people in the eye, smile, look happy. People follow winners. Act like one, dress like one.
- Are your shoes/boots shined? It’s the little things that people notice.
- Don’t use foul language. You’re the boss, you don’t need to sound tough.
- Don’t tell off-color jokes. You’re not in your golf club locker room.
- Discount praise–believe criticism.
- REMEMBER… Today’s peacock can easily become tomorrow’s feather duster.
