Appearance its nature does not hurt: always elegant, with a shapely figure in a business suit, she looked. Fulfilled his duties, however, aroused the old employees only irritation and discontent.

Comment
A new person in the company is outside the established social groups in the team. Its main task is to get a quick socialization, to join the leader and become his. In this story the "old-timers" was used a game called "word of mouth". Eugenia was necessary to explain to the officer the reason for the absence before it is known by other team members. Information from the horse's mouth is always better than its revised and expanded versions. Every careless word, including loud "sound" of their plans in the team, can corrupt the employee being on probation.

Comment
Old Soviet enterprises like today gradually drying up the swamp. The more newcomers employees are efforts, the deeper tighten them into the quagmire of the Soviet attitude to work as a source of social guarantees. These businesses are mostly pensioners, and computer technology is still perceived as unnecessary "gimmick". However, "old" in no hurry to give up their positions to young people. They are afraid of competition and conduct their "election policy". Of course, Sergey hastened the decision of dismissal. To expect rapid career growth and high income in the first year of operation was naive. But the task of the young specialist - purchasing experience. If Sergey has concentrated its efforts in the accumulation of experience, in a couple of years could get a job in a company in a good position.

Comment
Competition between employees is too often an excuse for care professionals. Wives who work with their husbands, mistresses leaders, stars of the company, close and distant relatives - these categories of staff who are sensitive to the emergence of competitors. Making use of the authority in the first people, it is not difficult to change the opinion of its expert and lead him to a forced dismissal. This situation is especially common for companies, the declaring clan-related personnel policy, when priority is placed kinship and family ties. These games are especially relevant for unmarried women with bright external data and pronounced leadership qualities. Employees caught in such a system, it may be advisable to be as "grayer", modest and not stand out from the crowd. And in the best case - to make friends with "grey cardinals" and to enlist their support.
Office play - part of life in any organization. Your main goal is to win, or at worst, be neutral. Remember, the enemies are not asleep. They prepare a plan of attack and calculate your every move. The slightest mistake can be inflated before the tragedy on a global scale. Always be on the alert. Watch not stand out, sit in a trench and watch the events unfolding on the battlefield. If You really want this job, do not be afraid! The success is guaranteed only to those who go to the goal. So gather your forces and forward to your victory!
