I know, you’ve heard it over and over and over again ad nauseum. We all have: “You never have a second chance to make a good first impression.”

Before walking through the door, take a deep breath, wipe your face, comb your hair, (ladies, check your makeup,) smooth your clothes, stand tall and throw your shoulders back.
Then gracefully glide in with a smile and a cheery “Good morning.” Your impressive image lingers and gives you a leg up to tackle whatever #@%& happens with them later in the day
