I saw a reel on Facebook that advises how to deal with people who don't like you. The advice was to act like they DO like you. It will unnerve and disarm them, he said. So I tried this yesterday, and it actually worked!

I had to meet with my boss and her boss separately, and so I behaved as though they both like me, and my meetings went well. My boss's boss at the end of our meeting said, "As always, great to meet with you." I am sure he didn't REALLY mean it, but it was said and it made me feel better.

The day was actually a good day at work. No issues, no uncomfortable moments. Nothing odd or weird. I just focused on my work and got my work done.

It was a good day.
