My boss at my very first job when I was a teenager. She told me what she told each new hire: I didn't have to love my coworkers, but I had to at least be civil with them. If I couldn't manage that, I'd be let go.
When I eventually began hiring people, I told them the same thing: get along or goodbye.

Best advice I ever got from my first boss in PR in Hollywood. 'These people are not your friends." He taught me that no matter how nice they are to you they will fuck you over in a heartbeat. He also taught me who were the people in power to make sure they were your friends so when the shit hit the fan you were protected.
For example. I had a producer on a network show who wanted me fired because he did an interview and the magazine kjilled it because it was boring. He called me in his office and screamed at me for an hour about how I should have prepped him better and how I didn't have the shows best interest at heart. I left his office and went down to the EP/Showrunner. Asked if I could talk to him and he said sure. I sat down told him what happened. He said "well I am happy with how you take care of the show so fuck him and if he brings it up I will squash it." And he did.

I have written this here on DL before, but here I go again.
I was in my last year of my undergrad degree, which was a big deal to me because, due to acquiring a serious drug & alcohol problem (and subsequently getting clean), I only started college at 30. I was talking to a very wise old woman at an AA meeting (who was the same age I am now) about wanting to go on to grad school, but not knowing if it would be a good move for me because of my age. She told me, "If you want to do something, you should do it -- because when you get older, you don't want so much." And now that I am her age, I understand that completely.

Fuck ‘em if they can’t take a joke.
If they’re attractive, fuck ‘em even if they can.

Assholes are never not assholes. Anyone can change - that part is easy. The hard part is not changing back.

We have to fight against becoming our lesser selves as we age. Our flaws rise to the surface.

^That is really very true. The bad qualities of many people I've considered to be friends for decades have finally overpowered them and made them unbearable to me. Fortunately, I have reached a point at which I pretty much don't give a damn about human company, so it's working out just fine.

The world is not logical. The world is magical.
Sharing pain halves the pain. Sharing joy doubles the joy.
Try saying “Yes” to life.
Every person in your life has been there because you allowed them to be.

"Follow the money" Sure as all hell it describes modern politics to a great degree. Dark Money anyone - I'm sorry but if you do even a rudimentary audit you find out where the money came from.

‘Maybe’ is a worse ‘no’.
Always take photos and obtain signed paperwork.
Blood is not thicker than water; actually, it’s made up mostly of plasmatic hot water itself.
If they haven’t got back to you inside of 48-72 hours with a plausible fair reason why, they are not a mate or an ally, and at best they are benching you.

It is better to be liked than to be right.
Being right will get you resented.
Being liked will get you promoted.

When people show you who they are, believe them.
It's terribly overused and kind of Oprah adjacent, but it really is true that people often reveal to us over & over again who they are, yet we refuse to accept this reality

Rosemary Kennedy in a fit of inspiration once said to me, "I'd much rather have a full bottle in front of me than have a full frontal lobotomy," and she was 100% right.

After I noticed one of my Aunts-who I adored-had a bad habit of repeating things just for the sake of good gossip-no matter who it hurt, my Mom told me these three rules to live by when you're not sure if it's something you should or shouldn't repeat
1. Is it True
2. Is it Necessary
3. Is it kind
Very little gossip gets past that 3rd rule.
