well so far, it looks like it. I thought that after HS, itd be a drastic change, but even in college its still the same. Also Ive had multiple internships and whenever you try and be nice, coworkers see it as being boring and not exciting enough. I guess they want you to be the alpha male of the office
true, but say your in a meeting and you want to be polite and let everybody get a word in. In that situation, being a "pushover" and being polite for the next person is 1 in the same to some people. Im not going to cut you off and talk over somebody, so Im a pushover, when I just see it as being courteous to the next guy.Originally Posted by youngdoc

And there's a big difference between being assertive and being a jerk

I would consider nice to be ehh not overly aggressive in a sense. Like for instance, talking to a girl. You could go about it a smooth, nice guy way, offer a date etc. or like most bros and frat guys I see in college, be just %++#% and still get chicks. But then, I guess that kinda depends on what kind of girls you are dealing with also
For example, Im more of a reserved laid back person, so me also being nice isnt a good thing in a sense.
