Mr. Lin

Marketing Department

Staff member

There used to be a colleague in the Department, probably because he had been in the advertising company for a long time.

Be misfits

The corporate culture is more conservative, and most colleagues are polite and sometimes add some honorific words.

But this guy is different. In private, everyone thinks he always carries "burrs".

For example, a colleague from other departments called to ask if he had received a E-mail about something. A little professional would always say, "I have already received it, thank you". But what about him? "I received it", then hung up the phone and told the man to hold the microphone in a daze.

To help him, he didn't lift his head, and threw out a sentence: "I'm not free!" I'm not free when I'm free. Why don't I talk? The funny thing is, once he telephoned his supervisor and said there was something wrong with his family and asked for a day off.

But his brother is still in this tone: "boss, I can't come to work today, I want to ask for a day off!"

When he hung up the phone, his boss murmured, "boss...

Who are the bosses of the two of us? "

As a matter of fact, he has good working ability.

But who dares to entrust the important things to him? We are not sure that the boss is not at ease. Naturally, promotion, salary increase, training...

All sorts of advantages can not be achieved.

He finally lost his mind and resigned.

Comment: Mr. Lin's colleague made a mistake: making a self assertion and treating everyone in the company as a friend, so he can not help but use the tone that he wants to blend into each other.

Some companies can tolerate such a tone, but in most companies, you must feel respected by your colleagues and superiors.

For example, if he asks for leave, if he changes to "boss, I have something to do today, and I want to ask for a day off. If you do not see it convenient," then it becomes "ask for instructions".

Everyone, especially your boss, would like to be asked, rather than being told hard.
