How do you greet your coworkers?

Im a 21 year old guy, I work at a bb IB and I work amongst a bunch of other 21-24 year old jr banker… when you see your other analyst counter parts do you dap them up or shake their hand? What about associates? Vps? Directors? Managing directors?

Always been a fist bump guy. I hate shaking hands, but a fist bump is fine. Sometimes people will try and strangle my hand to death - these are the people I squeeze back on and always enjoy when they try and pull away and I just give it another shake or two.

I fist bump everyone and always have in office settings. Even CFO gets a fist bump. Same with president.

 

as soon as i make eye contact with them for the first time in the day I run at them full speed shouting there name and they always move out of the way. Got to make sure they know I am dominant
