RE: Welcome to the Rat Race - Advice to My Little Brother on his New White Collar

in #advice • 6 years ago

This is what I call a work guide! I'm not sure how I feel about it being a Christmas present but you know what your brother appreciates ;) You spent a lot of time writing that and you included everything what I would. Even some personal experience - great!

I have a lot of experience in corporate and I would also include something about not showing to your manager that he/she is incompetent in what he/she is doing :D That's also very helpful.

I also had one guy who truly hated me. I ignored him completely until one day when he sent a very humiliating e-mail to me with other people in CC. At that time I engaged HR as that was enough. He still hates me but I didn't receive any e-mails from him anymore :D

Congratulations on the first job of your brother and I'm sure that your guide will be a great help for him! I would love to have something like that when I started to work in an office :)

Thank you for sharing!

    I knew as soon as I clicked print that I’d start thinking of more things to add. I guess that’s why there are so many books out there! Great addition, I would definitely agree and would add that to the list.

    Thanks for sharing your experiences too. I think everyone ends up with an arch nemesis sooner or later. Sounds like you did the right thing in handling yours.

    I appreciate the comment, thanks for the feedback!

      Imagine that you would decide to write it by hand ;)

      I think I did what I could at that moment. First I wanted to punch him in his face but then I decided to resolve it a bit more constructively :D

      Thank you for getting back to me :)
