"Be nice to everyone."
Sounds so simple, but you wouldn't believe (especially in the workplace) how some people act because of someone's title or position. Regardless as to where you work, be sure to be nice to everyone - from the janitor to the CEO. No one in unimportant.
In my company, the first person to know who got fired (and why) is the receptionist (because she is the one that activates/deactivates your badge). If there is an opening in a department, its their admin assistant that will determine where or not your name/resume comes across her VP's desk or whether or not you will get an appointment to meet with him or her. Things like this play out everyday.
So when you get your first job, just remember that everyone is an important piece of that company - not just those with a manager or director title.
