A Hua Ji in the Friends Palace does not prove that nobody will work with you. This palace has also been called the Servants or Social Palace. Its changing name can tempt readers to turn a working relationship into a popularity score. The chart instead gives a place to ask where cooperation gets stuck.
Read the work around the palace
Look at the main and supporting stars with the transformation, then compare Life for the person's working style and Career for the task. A capable manager can retain a team while still causing frustration over schedules or responsibility.
Compare two teams
A restaurant supervisor keeps experienced staff but changes shifts with little warning. The issue is notice and compensation. A project manager draws a full meeting room, yet nobody owns the final deliverable. That issue is assignment and acceptance. The same palace concern leads to different repairs.
Verify the relationship
List who provides information, who approves changes, and who signs off. Review the last three disputes and check staff retention, payment, and actual duties. Read Friends alongside Life, Career, and Wealth, then test the interpretation against interviews and records rather than judging a person's character from one chart symbol.
