This is a post I shouldn’t even have to write, but too often I see agents just being downright rude to one another. Some will bark orders or demand the sun and the moon from you, others will insult you for everything from your appearance to your success. Then of course there are agents with the “why should I do anything for you?” attitude and others who have nothing but dirty ulterior motives of stealing your clients and your business.
If you find yourself in an office full of these types, it can be very difficult to stay positive about your business. It can also be equally as difficult to not lose your temper or start snapping back at them. If you are one of these “not so nice agents”, chances are you’re not even aware how your actions and words might be reflecting on you.
So think about how you act in the office: Do you show up in blue jeans? Do you whisper about people behind their back? Do you act like you’re the only person in the office that matters?
I hope none of my readers have these problems, but remember to be professional and kind. It can go a long way, and maybe it will even rub off on the other not-so-proffessional-or-kind agents. If need be, consider changing offices or even having a meeting with your office manager.

People that act like that won’t last long in the business. Be kind to people, make friends and help each other out, plenty of leads to go around. Do a favor for someone today and it may come back 2 fold to you tomorrow.
I couldn’t agree more Ron…it makes a big difference the way you treat others.
The Golden Rule is always the best rule.
It sounds like you’re creating problems yourself by trying to solve this issue instead of looking at why their is a problem in the first place
