It is hard for me to believe that people, especially new employees, don't make an effort to be friendly. It's the best way to get off on the right foot. Thanks so much for commenting.

I particularly liked the part when you suggest making eye contact with everyone and just saying "hi". I try to join guys from different departments to know each other better. Quickly making rapport does help when the honeymoon is over and is time to bring in ideas that might make you the least popular guy. You nailed it.
