You can compliment a colleague on an online presentation via email, or even pick up the phone. Don't send late night emails if it's not absolutely necessary, and the same goes for weekends. Don't be late to meetings (and apologize if you are) and don't monopolize someone's time with your complaints or gossip. Be adaptable.

Just because you show up on time, meet all your deadlines and don't gossip, well, that's not enough to get a bigger paycheck or title. Go through your emails or texts -- is there a familiar compliment such as "Your work is always so thorough" or a complaint such as "your writing is unclear"?
