How To Fit In At Your Workplace As An Intern

How should I act so that I fit in at my workplace?

The best thing to do, is to act like you're not an intern. Obviously you're an intern, you have intern labelled all over you. But the best thing to try to do is to peel off some of those intern labels. Obviously you'll be getting coffee, obviously you'll be making photo copies. But present yourself in the best way possible. Present yourself, not in the cocky sense, but present yourself in a way that says 'hey, I'm here to really kick but'. And that's the best way to fit in. To just be an adult. You've had all year to be a kid and go to parties and go to college and everything, but now for this summer, you're going to be a working person. And I always say the best thing to do is model this after the working people that you know. Whether it be your parents, your friends or anyone else, find someone that like he or she is really successful, he or she is working, and I'm just going to ask them before I start, "Hey, how do you act in the workplace?", you know, and "What do you talk about with your fellow co-workers?" Get some advice, it never hurts to ask.
