One important thing to keep in mind when you're in any work environment is the issue of office politics. Office politics can go on in any environment, for instance a retail environment if you're working in a professional association - like being an accountant - or even just working in a government job. Office politics in what I'm talking about is in regards to people gossiping about other people or getting into a network of unhappiness and negative attitudes. One thing I'd like to recommend is staying out of the office politics. Now, what I mean by this try not to gossip. If somebody tells you something about someone else that's maybe not positive, don't repeat it. Keep it inside. Try not to have this become a negative effect with the other person when you're actually interacting with them later. Try and keep a positive attitude as much as possible. And then, overall, you'll find that you get along with everybody and overall your work experience will be that much better.
