[QUOTE="DDD, post: 385419, member: 35"] There is nothing you can do to change his personality, his perspective, his past history of having difficulty with others. That is his baggage. If he is personally insecure, it is "normal" for him to be worried about how "his choice" is perceived etc. That being said...if you keep a low profile and prove to be an asset to him and the company, you're definitely going to be in a better place than you have been for the past year or so. If no criticism can be heard about you and his productivity increases you may have found a long term position. Settling in is a hard process. Uncertainty is stressful for all of us. It's only been a few days. You're past the initial jitters. You know your way to the ladies room and to lunch and the procedure for coming and going. Your professional skills are smoothing out. Avoid forming bonds with anyone. It's not [B]all [/B]good, but maybe it will be. Try not to overanalyze and go with the flow. You're good at what you do. They are lucky to have you. I'm hoping for the best. DDD [/QUOTE]
