My blankness

Facing an uncertain situation, it is inevitable that I am ratty. I don’t know how to regulate my emotions. I never like an inept and meddling boss, nor do I like dopey and horrid staffers. You push them forward. They hung around for a while, feeling at a loss. Why don’t you stay put, just waiting for the decision? Sorry about that. I don’t like the rule. I don’t care about the rule. Fuck off, rule.

By the way, my former colleague Bin, a fatty and slippery person, I don’t like him. Kissing up and kicking down is his signature. He is excellent at work. If I were his boss, I would like him. As a friend, he is stinky.

Chen told us one story. Chen just got to say that. Bin said: “Oh man, don’t get me started on people. If you don’t like here, just go away.”

I reject: “Why don’t you go away? The boss hazed you too. Why don’t you stand here? You can’t do that. Fuck off. Cower!”

Boss shared his insights with us. I don’t care about that. People were walking around and judging each other, but if the boss issued one sentence, someone gave a simpering response. They didn’t think they were fawning on the boss.

But we have poor standards. We don’t have excellent accountants, smart operation managers, awesome BDs, or business managers. So we need to keep low-key and ease our uneasy hearts.

Future road

Review the process here, open up the memory box, collaborate with product managers and the algorithm group. Hope to achieve a nice result.

At some point, something is going to go south on you. Though you don’t like it, I have been trying to do things myself, follow in my own footsteps. That is what I’m wishing for myself.

Disapproval from the masses is often experienced by people. It was not long before I realized that it isn’t a challenge; it is a sin!
