Chapter 88 Section 2 Twelve Unspoken Rules for Decisive Battles in the Workplace

"Desperate Saburo" Shi Xiu and "Sick Guan Suo" Yang Xiong reunited after a long absence, and naturally they were "deeply emotional and bored one after another".The two were nostalgic for the wine, full of emotions, and even drank a jar of old wine to the bottom until they were completely drunk.When he woke up the next day, Shi Xiu took Yang Xiong to Song Jiang.Song Jiang looked at Yang Xiong's resume, knew that he had a wealth of legal knowledge, and placed him in the legal department. Sitting in front of his own desk, Yang Xiong just felt that all the hard work has paid off, and his heart was filled with indescribable happiness, thinking that he had entered a new world where "the sea is wide and the sky is high enough for birds to fly".Unexpectedly, after only being happy for ten or so days, he ran into trouble.The work habits of managing prisoners have given him a flamboyant personality, and he likes to hear compliments like how heroic he is.You must know that Liangshan Group Company has many talented people, and there are always some talented people who don't pay attention to Yang Xiong.After the meeting in the Juyi Hall that day, Yang Xiong was walking on the covered bridge, but Li Kui, the "black whirlwind", grabbed him by the collar from behind and started fighting without explanation.Everyone hurriedly came over to persuade the fight, and asked the reason carefully, it turned out that it was because Li Kui couldn't understand his strutting walking posture.After a few more days, he found that almost everyone was looking at him with strange eyes and talking about him in whispers.Yang Xiong didn't know what happened, so he had to ask Shi Xiu for advice.

Shi Xiu thought for a while and said, "Brother, I'm not the brother who is talking about you. Your greatest strength lies in your straightforwardness, and your greatest weakness also lies in your straightforwardness. Straightforwardness is of course good, but you must also learn to be straightforward. Think about others. Let’s talk about your blood splashing on Cuiping Mountain. My sister-in-law is not good. Why don’t you just give her a divorce paper? Why do you want to kill her with a knife? Besides, if you work in a company, the company is yours. A place to strut your head? You have to learn to be a man with your tail between your legs, understand?"

Yang Xiong asked: "When a man lives in the world, he seeks happiness and enmity. Why should I be a man with my tail between my legs?" Shi Xiu said: "In one book, some people see the great achievements of the Taoyuan brothers fighting for justice, and some people see Cao Mengde's foresight in winning thousands of miles. In one book, some people see the loyalty of the world, and some people see the tricks of the world. As a book , No matter how you look at it. But for our workplace, there is only one answer, and that is how to behave. The key to being a human is not to show your talents, but to be praised by others. To be a human being with your tail between your legs is exactly It’s where the wisdom of being a man lies.”

Yang Xiong sighed, and then asked: "According to brother, what should I do?" Shi Xiu said: "Liangshan Group Company has had many established workplace cultures since its establishment. I don't know when, a book called "Workplace Cheats", also known as 'Twelve Unspoken Rules for Decisive Workplace' was secretly circulated among the employees. .I'll help you make a copy, it should be of great help to you." In a few days, Shi Xiu asked her assistant to deliver a letter while she was busy.When Yang Xiong opened the envelope and looked at it, it was indeed "Twelve Unspoken Rules for Decisive Battle in the Workplace".That night, I stayed alone in the dormitory, and with the lights on, I read sentence by sentence:

Article 1 Understand Your Responsibilities There are two kinds of responsibilities, one is the responsibilities defined by job authority, and the other is the responsibilities defined by unspoken rules.For example, Miss Secretary not only serves as the leader's secretary at work, but also often serves as the leader's secretary in life.When a new employee enters the job, it is best to do more and talk less, and first figure out the unspoken rules before talking. Article 2 join a circle In office politics, the circle is the capital for you to settle down.However, when you join one circle, you immediately become the enemy of another circle.What if you join two circles?It is equivalent to not joining the circle.What if you don't join any circles?The result is likely to be marginalized by all circles.All in all, you must join a circle, but you have to choose carefully what kind of circle you join.

Article 3 Don’t be the boss in name Being the boss means you're above the top, but you can't be friends with other people.The smartest choice is that you don't want the status of the boss, but you have the real power of the boss. Article 4 Overtime is a kind of work art No matter how hardworking you are during working hours, if you don't work overtime, it will be seen as not hardworking.But if you are always working overtime, it will be seen as ambitious. Article 5 Participate in every dinner If you participate, your speech at the dinner will become a gossip.If you don't participate, your gossip will become a speech at the dinner party.Two evils are equal, it is better to use your speech to decide the gossip.

Article 6: Learn to Accept Criticism The boss's criticism is right, of course you should accept it.If your boss criticizes you, you should accept it—because you have to learn to bear grievances. Article 7 Grasp the opportunity of "rarely confused" Being confused will make others think you have no opinion, and not being confused will make others think you are difficult to get along with.The so-called "rarely confused" lies in the timing of being confused, and when to be confused depends on the degree to which you are not confused. Article 8 Understand the Practical Significance of Seniority Ranking

If you don't recognize your seniors, your seniors won't give you a chance to be promoted.If you admit your seniors, your seniors will become an obstacle to your promotion.You must first learn to acknowledge the existence of your seniors, and then find the right time to kick them away. Article 9 Avoid Offending Mediocrity Genius will definitely offend mediocrity, because mediocrity always does not like to get along with genius.Still, genius should avoid offending mediocrity. Article 10 Learn to praise others Learn to praise others, not let others praise you.Surviving the jungle of office politics requires knowing who you admire and mastering the art of it.

Article 11: Ignite others to illuminate yourself Treat others as candles and learn to light others to illuminate yourself.If it is yourself that is on fire, sooner or later you will be reduced to a heap of ashes. Article 12 Speak according to explicit rules and act according to unspoken rules Shi Xiu specially wrote another letter, succinctly describing many experiences she had encountered since joining Liangshan.He used to be the most popular star employee in the company, and he was criticized by many people because of this.He told Yang Xiong earnestly about his experience in the workplace, hoping that Yang Xiong could recognize the reality and not make troubles again.Among the twelve unspoken rules.

The most important thing is the second, which is to have a deep understanding of circles and choose circles carefully.He specifically reminded Yang Xiong that "Black Whirlwind" Li Kui is a man who cannot be offended, because in Li Kui's circle, there is an important figure, and that is Song Jiang, the real power faction of the company. This workplace cheat book is really effective, and it successfully cured Yang Xiong's bad habit of acting recklessly for a while.It's just that after working with such low eyebrows and pleasing eyes for a period of time, Yang Xiong suddenly found that his mood became depressed again.He thought to himself: "Like such a deliberate life, sooner or later that terrible nightmare will recur."

In fact, depression has become the most commonly used mantra of the entire Liangshan Group Company, and even the entire society.According to a survey of 1.8 million employees across the country, more than 30% of them have severe symptoms of depression.What's more, there are many people who become abnormal because of depression, and take violent revenge, lethal, and destructive actions such as murder, arson, and crazy sadism.
