There were 5 of us, and part of our job was to go into a company site, access their IT infrastructure and make recommendations to bring them to corporate standards. We all had strong opinions and would often argue about the right solution. More than once, people in the meetings that didn't know us said "You guys really don't like each other do you?". Our answer was "Oh no, that's just the way we work. After hours, we're great friends, our families know each other, and we often gather as a group". No one really believed us though!

Banter is always optional, especially in the workplace. Respect comes first. I'm always happy when someone isn't afraid to hit me with both barrels. People are intimidated with my size.

he's passed away since, cancer got him the second go-round after remission, but used to work for a pool contractor that was one of the most extreme examples. first generation italian guy, with a mouth to match. first couple jobs, we didn't get along the greatest with him throwing constant insults all the time to us new people. finally had enough of it, and let him have it. after i started dishing it back to him, his entire mood shifted on the job and he was suddenly my best buddy. finally figured out if i didn't really lay into him right off the bat when getting to the job, he would get really serious and make life miserable for everyone. but shoot the shit and harass him for 20 minutes, and he'd get giddy like a schoolgirl and leave everyone alone.
