You can't make people like you, but you have a right to demand respect.

I worked a job where I shared a space with another worker. They worked the shift ahead of me. Because I was brand new they thought it would be fun to leave the area a mess. I took all the garbage and put it in their company mailbox. I told them that if they left their personal stuff out I'd be nice and return it to them.

They eventually got the idea.
