Some things are only known after a promotion. At 4 o'clock in the afternoon on Saturday, my friend suddenly called me, a little anxious, saying that he would borrow a car and let me send him the car, and it would be 15 minutes later. I wondered in my heart: "Didn't you go with the leader to play football, how to drip, your car was also "kicked"? ”
Jin Yong said that where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and when applied to the workplace, there are circles where there are people.
My hair is small, but also my elementary and junior high school classmates, old Cai, mixed better than me, 2 years ago was promoted to director, and the whole person seems to have also upgraded. He could even say such profound words as "it is better to be promoted than to enter the circle".
He explained to me in detail: some people have been promoted but have not entered the circle, some people have not been promoted but have entered the circle, and the latter is stronger than the former.
——
Lao Cai said that he really understood what the circle meant, after becoming a director.
At that time, he had just been promoted, and the day after he moved into the big office, he was looking at the information with his head stuffed, and Deputy Director Liu of the General Manager's Office knocked on the door and came in. Old Cai hurriedly got up to greet him, "What kind of wind blew Director Liu Da here, sit down quickly!" He poured Deputy Director Liu a cup of tea and then sat down on the two-seat sofa with him.
Sitting like this is learned, but no teacher or book will teach, and Lao Cai also slowly realized it himself by observing the big leader:
If the subordinates come to the office, when the leader does not have to get up at all, after listening to the debriefing work, nodding their heads, they can go out.
If the same rank comes to the office, the leader will usually get up to greet each other and then sit on the sofa to show that he has no shelf.
If the superior leader comes, he will have to drag the chair to the opposite side of the sofa, and he must sit only half his ass to show respect.
Although this deputy director Liu is not the head of the department, and the old Cai is half a level, but the family is working next to the boss, see the official level, so he chose this sitting method.
Deputy Director Liu is a very proud person in his bones, and Lao Cai has entered the company at about the same time, but there is no friendship, and almost all the people who meet him face to face are old Cai taking the initiative to greet him.
Deputy Director Liu was also quick to speak, saying: "Old Cai, have you been playing football lately?" How many leaders want to play football on the weekend, or should we be together? ”
Many people know that Deputy Director Liu not only likes to play football, but also the owner of the company's "high-end football group". How high-end? The lowest level is also a department manager, and ordinary employees can't get in at all. Old Cai usually plays football and has also found someone to pull himself into the group, but he has been politely rejected several times, on the grounds that this group level is "a little special".
Today, the group leader actually put down his body and personally invited him to his office, which made Old Cai flattered. Since the other party's olive branches were all thrown over, it would be too blind to pick up, and he said busily: "I'm afraid that my level has dragged everyone back, what time and where?" I passed on time! ”
After a few more small talk, Deputy Director Liu got up and resigned. In the afternoon, Lao Cai was pulled into the group, a closer look, a well-behaved, there was actually a boss himself in the group, and two sensible, the top leaders of each business line were almost all in the group, and they all played football...
No wonder, no wonder!!
In fact, Lao Cai used to prefer table tennis to football, but slowly, he found that team sports can expand the circle more.
Saturday's ball game was intense, as a substitute player, Lao Cai handed the players 12 times water, added countless times of oil, and finally, in garbage time, he got a two-minute chance to play, he used 8 points. Old Cai said to Deputy Director Liu: "Brother, the next time you play football, call me, it is really enjoyable." Only to see the other party skimming his lips.
The vice president of marketing came over and said to Lao Cai: "I didn't expect you to play football, next time you can't put water like this." "Leadership is leadership, fire eyes and golden eyes!"
After the break, the leaders who rarely have leisure will often find a place to get together, and this small gathering often has many special meanings. But the old Cai just promoted the director, this level is only enough to knock on the door, as for the people in the house can not open the door, let not let go, not only rely on strength, but also have to see the opportunity.
He had just packed up his backpack and was about to leave the stadium when Vice President Wang, who was in charge of production, came over and asked, "Did you drive?" Old Cai said busily: "Mr. Wang, I am driving." "I didn't drive today, I have to accompany the guests at night, if you are okay at night, just come with me, hard you make me a driver."
Old Cai said busily, "Good Mr. Wang." "Looking forward to the opportunity, the opportunity is coming."
In fact, Old Cai did not drive at all, his car was parked at home, but it was too late to go back to drive, so he quickly called me and asked me to drive the car to him. I came back on the subway that day, and afterwards he invited me to a big meal.
Some people may say: Our unit is very good, as long as we work hard and work hard, there will be room for development. Some people will also say: the colleagues around are very good, the supervisor is also very fair, everyone loves each other, where there is a pier, there is no circle.
A few years ago, I thought the same way, and I still firmly believed at that time that as long as there is the ability to work, it will definitely be able to mix, the big deal is "there is no grandfather here, there is a place to stay!" ”
Now I have been spurned by the workplace several times before I believe the words that Lao Cai said about me: I would rather say that you are very simple than that you are not hierarchical enough, and even the threshold for entering the circle has not been touched.
I am @ workplace slot dot, welcome to pay attention to the exchange.
