From the first day I stepped into this unit, I felt as if I had been swept into a strange and uncomfortable environment. The workplace is like a labyrinth, and every corner hides hidden secrets. And my eyes quickly locked on the old accountant in the finance department, a man named Lao Lin.
Lao Lin, a rather old-school name, reminds me of old offices and tangled spider silk. He is the mainstay of the finance department of this unit, and he is also the most incomprehensible figure in my heart. In the beginning, I had a huge prejudice against him, thinking that he was nothing more than an incompetent person who was mixed up in the network, and because of some special background, he was able to get a job in this excellent unit.
Although I try to hide my dissatisfaction, in my opinion, Lao Lin is always a worthless existence. Until one day, a message came from the unit: it was about to undergo a financial inspection. The leader and Lao Lin were closely discussing countermeasures in the office, and I was puzzled by this. I watched in confusion as the two men discussed how to deal with the inspection team as accomplices, and the injustice in the workplace began to build up in my heart.
On the eve of the inspection, a fire broke out in the accounting room of the unit. I thought it was an unfortunate accident, but in my stunned gaze, Lao Lin rushed into the fire without hesitation. He struggled, pulling a monitor out of the smoke, forgetting the console on his desk. I immediately decided that he was a stupid person, and I couldn't help but expose what he had done.
Lao Lin, what are you doing here?It's a shame to make such an obvious mistake!I looked at him mockingly, but saw him smiling and said lightly: "This monitor is the key inspection object of the inspection team, and everything else can be re-declared." As for the hosting, I don't think there's anything wrong with it. ”
At that time, I didn't understand Lao Lin's behavior, and felt that what he did was full of absurdity and ridiculousness. However, the members of the inspection team showed their admiration for him, and the leaders also looked at him with a smile. All this made me feel even more confused, as if I had seen an unusual picture that I could not comprehend.
On the day Lao Lin retired, the unit actually held a grand farewell party for him. The leadership not only praised him for his contributions over the years, but also opened the way for his son to enter the unit. This scene made me feel stunned, and I still didn't know anything about the value of Lao Lin.
Until one day, an old colleague unveiled the mystery of Lao Lin to me. It turned out that Lao Lin was a master of "pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger". He deliberately pretended to be confused, ostensibly to cover up his incompetence, but in fact to cover up the financial problems within the unit. And that fire was his intention to destroy the evidence. He salvaged the monitor just to create a superficial illusion and hide people's eyes.
I was shocked to learn all of this, and I also gained a new understanding of the rules of the workplace. Lao Lin is not incompetent, but a wise strategist. He succeeded in defusing a crisis with ingenuity, and all of this was happening right under the noses of us outsiders.
Eventually, I realized that different types of relationships have different values in the workplace. In his unique way, Lao Lin told me that relationships are not simply a matter of conspiracy, but an indispensable part of survival in the workplace. He is a typical case that has given me a deeper understanding of the workplace. In this game of "pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger", I learned the other side of the rules of the workplace, and I also better understand that on this big stage, we need to use various means flexibly in order to maintain our position.
