    It’s called respect. i guess, It used to be common thing. Some cultures have it even in their languages like Japanese “sempai”
    edit : like this boss > colleagues > intern

      The down votes aren’t from people who don’t believe in respect it’s from the people who believe it should be boss = colleagues = intern until they prove they deserve otherwise.

        Respect is earned not given.
        Also seems like people mix race or whatever with professional achievements.

        First you prove you can built company or contribute then i will respect you on professional level . Saying that i must respect someone for achievements they don’t have, when they just came to company to learn and take time of others on the same level as respecting someone who most likely built the company makes no sense.

        Again we are not talking about being rude to newcomers. I’ll still hold their door, greet them, have coffee break with them but you can’t seriosly except me to act as if their achievement are what they are not.

      If they think I don’t respect them because they aren’t at the front of the CC list, then that is on them.

      If they wanted that, they should have put it on the contract. But none of them would do that because then their pettiness is written down.

        That is not what i said.
        I said it’s respectful to do that but have never seen anyone get scolded for it.

      Well I don’t think the poster is Japanese so it’s not really a consideration.
