Above and Beyond the Call of being Polite

When I am not enthused about meeting a person for the first time, i tend to go overboard polite - almost borderline fake (which i know is a bad thing, but i believe it's a coping mechanism). This is how i reacted to the new guy in the office who somewhat booted my dad out of his position, but it's really not the new guy's fault at all - he's just caught in the middle of a stupid political game. However, it hasn't stopped me from feeling somewhat negative to this guy and when he came out of his office to ask who i was and what i did in the department, out came my fake smile and laugh (yes, i have a fake laugh). He asked countless questions about stuff that really has no bearing on him or his position, but he sure did act like it did. I was told that he would have no involvement with my job directly or indirectly - meaning he is suppose to stay away!!! Oh well. I'm praying God grants me patience and a genuine attitude of politeness and being nice.
