navigate the social landscape of a corporate office
Oooof, I hear that. Things are more political than ever at my work and it's like, I just want to do my job and go home
I can't navigate politics at all. Have done ok working at startups though, some offices are not at all political. Where I work, we can fix other people's processes if we think of a better way, we work with other departments, I don't have to go through my manager to talk to your manager to get to you, can go directly to you. Can talk to the CEO, to ex- employees, nobody is protective of their work, nobody is angling for my job.
Everyone in my office just fucking moans about everything, all the time. It's honestly exhausting. The company is actually really good and gives a ton of perks. Just do your job and go home. Stop trying to bring everyone down with your shit.
The rules are “make anyone above you feel good about themselves because they’ll throw a hissy fit if you don’t make them feel special.” It’s pathetic and I’m tired of it.
