Features: A comprehensive survival guide in the workplace based on the "Thick Black School"! In a hierarchical organization, only continuous promotion can lead to more money and power. After achieving enlightenment in a reincarnated life, Ah Q will tell you:
How to turn your job into a leisurely Rabbit Island;
How to send a exploiting boss to a nursery;
How to turn malicious colleagues into a bear's breakfast;
How to hunt big fish in the murky waters of restructuring;
A boss rarely promotes someone who only gets praise from himself. The way a villain rises to power lies in the influence system he builds, which is far stronger than that of a loyal subject.
If you really want to secure a position or a project, the best way is to make it less attractive. Being overly close to the boss isn't always a good thing. Not only does the perceptive boss bring the risk of "walking with the tiger," but jealousy from the same level might turn you into a straw boat for arrows overnight.
No boss likes someone who knows them too well, especially their private life. Never believe the boss when they say, "There's no boss here today, we're just working hard together as brothers."
What usually goes unnoticed is the elimination of crises in their early stages, while those who rush to mend the fence after the sheep is lost often rise quickly.
A heart full of malice is harmful, but a mind guarded against others is necessary! Don't be too honest!
