Man, I was too naive to realize this and just worked hard,, got used and abused and ended with nothing to show for it. The people who were treated the best and got the most opportunities were the people who were the most likable, not necessarily the best workers.

I would say being seen as easy to work with goes a long way more. Especially if you rely on info to do your job.

Id much rather work with someone who makes my job easier than someone I simply like.

If you're not getting promoted, it's not because you're not good at your job. It's because you're good at ONLY your job.

Its more being easy to work with, which can go hand in hand with being likable.

People will respect you if you are a hard worker. If you earn peoples respect, they will come to like you.

A hard working asshole is still an asshole. Not saying you are but being a hard worker doesnt really matter to coworkers if they dont like being around you

Depends on the job, but it's held true for me. I always get away with a bunch of stuff simply on the basis that everyone likes me, but it's not coming from a place of manipulation. I just really like to wear hoodies all the time.

This, and even if you're a hard worker, if you're making the job difficult or just unpleasant for those around you, it's easier to replace you than ameliorate the harm to the people obliged to work with you.

It's mostly about who kisses the most ass honestly. Working hard is one thing. Kissing ass however gets you into a whole different area.

depending on the type of job, not really. A really obvious kiss ass is gonna make the people you actually work with not like you

Being easy and pleasant to work with can be an important part of what makes a 'good worker', and there's nothing wrong with that being rewarded.

If it's that easy, I'm surprised more people don't try it.

True in every field

I worked with wildly incompetent physicians

But quite popular

Edit: also less likely to get sued
