"If you want someone you don't know well to like you, ask them for a small favor.
When I get new coworkers I go out of my way to ask them for something little, like borrowing a stapler or giving an opinion on something I'm working on.
Then they feel like they can ask me for something next time they need help, and soon I've tricked them into thinking I'm a nice person.
I don't know why it works but it does."
the other half is cheap advice that the person never put into action.
Except maybe she's got so many relatives that she doesn't know who is stealing from her.

#23 i usually shout "lightweight baby" and "nothing but a peanut".
sh#t @$$ advice from people who know sh#t.
