Lessons learned: I didn't lose to a higher standard of college students

Simon and I joined the company in the same month. I graduated from the national key universities, there were three or four companies interested in hiring me, because I now company boss I most appreciated, so I plunge into the joint venture. Simon is the tertiary, there seems to still find acquaintances help before the company 's, his English name or can I help him? And now, six years after graduation, he was General Manager of Shanghai Branch generation (formerly General Manager moved to Singapore), I was just a Department Manager.

I have a "head" of a writ

Just joined the company, I was sent to investment Development Department do market analysis and budget. When I learned that this arrangement after blood. This is important, and fits me "on the characteristics of digital sensitive". But a couple of months later, I know why is it so important tasks will be to me a "use the baby boy" — — too cumbersome and complicated. Participation in commercial negotiations and customers, I was sitting on one side, let the Manager of State; budget number is based on the will of the "head", wrong also had to do wrong. Sometimes in order to win customers, make a budget or even viable.

The "head" is a layman, what originally was a Director of the Office, and do not know which one evening university diploma, always wants to set power and prestige in front of me. All in all good is his, wrong is our budget or analysis of error, so privately, Department of several colleagues hold for me. Each time according to the "head" incite to do analysis and budget report can once again modified by several times. On one occasion, and the boss to go see the customer, he asked about my work, I couldn't put the word you've said, and made many suggestions for improvement. Boss smiled and nodded listened, I don't know about the spur of the moment how many don't know anything anymore. Subsequently, the boss has to budgets of our departments participated in the session, and then later, the "head" on my more than once upon a time there was several times even in the presence of colleagues face "chemicals". For me, there is a response, first refused to work overtime, and secondly not talked about, then there is only a nod.

Simon situation worse

In my view, the situation is really bad Simon. He is scheduled to do administration and inventory management. The day ends with a smile. What a fax machine is broken, stationery few, he had to go to run errands. The company's warehouse very far away from the Office, have three or four hours back and forth, he will go to every week. Caught in the company headquarters or other branch of important tasks to Shanghai, but also to transfer. So he gives the impression to work overtime every day, everyone is able to send orders and requests. He is the kind of silent little words and resignation.

Why the "Thunder" only to the boss

A year later, my department head swap out, have a read in Australia for two years of the "turtle", was not in vogue this name, and when they heard that companies spend a lot of money in the dig through headhunting. His "Western" style to sector brought a whole new look. Each time you do a budget, he will first discuss it with me, profit targets, gives me a "direction". Of course, he also let me learn a lot of knowledge and experience, overtime and turned into a very pleasant. In public, I maintain silence, "zuijin" Thunder to him. This situation lasted for nearly two years, I began to feel resentment: my "turtle" supervisor repeatedly praised by boss, promoted a raise, but I am staying the same, even more embarrassing is that departments and recruiting an Assistant Manager, I think I should consider swapping Club?

Simon on a roll

Simon worked for two years, suddenly was transferred to the company's customer service department, it is said that once the manager responsible for the transfer of company, the Manager on his carefully and work organization was appreciated, he transferred to the "customer service" and then worked as an Assistant Manager of customer service. He mobilized the sector that year it was awarded the excellent staff.

I almost quit

My work does not improve, only worse. I think I'm not that kind of sacrifice "boss" trusted followers, I have my own ideas and talent, I thirst for power and position to do something great. Soon my attitude changes caused by the "turtle" attention, disagreements on several occasions, he began what would make his assistant wanted. I think the company everyone noticed I was hated and lost. Finally, his assistant to ask me what to do when the project budget, I couldn't, because I have three years of budget analysis, and now they're taking it to others, it is clear that I was "left", "turtle" decided to foster new talent succeed me. My head is a hot, rushed into his Office and his theory, specific words I have in mind is not clear, but remember he was bitter words and I said: "I am your manager, you have to do in accordance with my requirements. "I remember his office door behind me tremendous sound issued.

I quit. I took a week's leave (I have three years hasn't retired Chinese new year holiday), modify your resume, look for work. But my three years off, no post titles, so willing to engage my posts are not high, natural wages nor high, but me and my girlfriend is getting ready to buy a House, do not dare to take on the economy at risk, fear looks precariousness is not desirable, it wasn't long before they change jobs. So the only old leather in the original company, opportunity and good jobs. Also I almost desperate, my boss (is the interview I then put my recruitment in the one) I talked about one thing, he's probably heard me and "turtle", or perhaps he is dissatisfied with the "turtle" arrogant, he said to me that a lot of encouragement, merely recognized my abilities, but also need to hone, the company is valued, and so on.

Boss so give me face, this makes me somewhat surprised and pleased. Then, the boss said that intend to Eastern China to open new offices, and sent to the person granted to great powers, two years later, back to Shanghai can be promoted to Manager even higher positions, I promised to go to the title is in charge, and a raise. This is a way out, because the boss makes

Look, it's hard to get along, and continue to find good jobs. In the field day is a long tale, the Corporation's plan changed again, my efforts always appeared in the "futility". Two years later, I was back to Shanghai, made my original Department Deputy Manager, the Manager position vacant.

Simon pushes away the "turtle"

The "turtle" pushed away, squeeze ran his people is Simon. Simon has been a Senior Manager, sales and customer service to two major departments, marketing thing is meddling in the tube. I didn't think so much of his ability to quietly got the company's vital sector, also three boxing feet to take the "turtle" is not just like the original eye-see him off. And I and Simon's no previous relationship, and we paid a courtesy call to greet, met to discuss work deal with decent. Occasionally he will ask me to dinner, but basically I have rejected. I always used to before him and poured out his heart, then carefully listen to me "East West is not bad," now what?, he again later, all the way until now General Manager of generation, even the boss on his courteous Tri I l, Deputy Manager to Manager. I am constantly on his situation was disappointed, especially the two at the same time into the company, he was a college student, I think I was a failure in the eyes of colleagues, "blended poorly" is a joke. I want to quit school to go, but with degree?
