Random question! I opened my Bible on Matthew 10 and verse 22 says :
And all nations will hate you because you are my followers. But everyone who endures to the end will be saved.
I think there is another verse similar but can't remember it.
So if someone is really a follower of Jesus will people hate them and if people don't hate them are they not strong enough in their faith?
I don't really want to be hated! 
Also at work we have to get along with people so having them hate us wouldn't be ideal. Unless the verses are more specific or maybe aimed at the disciples.
