Hi,

Is ''friendly footing'' relevant to his job accopmlishments as a very active person showing on time and do his works as the way he's entrusted? or it's relevant to his ways with people around, like he gets along with them ok??

or they're both combination?

[Beeesneees]

No, puppet. The meaning is above.

Hi Beeesneees,

The meaning still not clear to me. Is being ""friendly footing"" something has to do with his work achievments, his morals with the crew ?

[Beeesneees]

Friendly footing does not necessarily have anything to do with work.
