Workplace Power: How I Overcame My Boss

墨書 Inktalez
Before graduation, my dad arranged a position for me at the headquarters. 0
 
I declined it. 0
 
I managed to get into the finance department through my own efforts. 0
 
However, two days later, HR notified me that I would be interning in the engineering department. 0
 
The reason was quite ridiculous: "The finance department doesn't need extra hands." 0
 
I was puzzled: "But I'm studying finance; wouldn't it be inappropriate to intern in the engineering department?" 0
 
"The position you interviewed for was in the engineering department. You insisted on going to the finance department, and the company can't just create a position for you." 0
 
"Does the company have the right to change positions at will?" 0
 
I questioned. 0
 
"Of course, the company cannot change positions arbitrarily, but it can arrange them with your consent." 0
 
"So I did not agree." 0
 
HR patiently explained: "It was the company's oversight; we should have placed you in finance when there was a vacancy. However, the engineering department is better for developing your skills, and when there is an opening in finance, we will transfer you back." 0
 
"Then I don't think it's suitable; I don't want to go." 0
 
HR frowned: "Do you want to refuse?" 0
 
I shook my head: "I just feel that I don't know anything, and going to the engineering department would cause trouble for the company." 0
 
"You won't be a trouble once you go." 0
 
 
The HR's tone was somewhat stiff: "The Engineering Department is the most important department in the company. If you do well, you can help the company generate significant profits." 0
 
"But I don't have an engineering background..." 0
 
The HR interrupted me: "What you learned in college is mostly useless in the workplace. Moreover, the manager of the Engineering Department is very capable; she will teach you." 0
 
I was unwilling to accept this: "But..." 0
 
"There are no buts." 0
 
The HR's tone carried a hint of threat: "Song Juan, if you don't go to the Engineering Department, you'll have to leave the company. After all, the company doesn't keep idle people." 0
 
I closed my mouth and stopped speaking. 0
 
I remembered the promise I made to my dad. 0
 
"Dad, don't worry. I will carve out my own path through hard work!" 0
 
If I refused, I might not even have the chance to stay at the company. 0
 
Seeing my attitude soften, the HR adjusted her tone: "The Engineering Department is where mid-level leaders start. Those who understand technology have more confidence in the company. The Finance Department is already saturated; you won't have much development there." 0
 
I lowered my head and said nothing. 0
 
The HR patted my shoulder: "Work hard, and you'll thank me later." 0
 
Thank? 0
 
 
I chuckled coldly to myself. 0
 
I don't blame her; she's just a gun. 0
 
I looked down at my toes, feeling somewhat uncomfortable inside. 0
 
But just somewhat. 0
 
I nodded slightly and replied softly, "Okay, I'll go to the Engineering Department." 0
 
HR took me to the Engineering Department, where I met my new supervisor. 0
 
Her name is Gu Nian, a young female manager. 0
 
She has fair skin, a tall figure, and her makeup is somewhat heavy. 0
 
I felt a bit of admiration for her being able to hold this position at such a young age. 0
 
I obediently introduced myself and politely extended my hand, saying, "Hello, my name is Song Juan. I look forward to your guidance in the future." 0
 
She glanced at me indifferently without responding and turned to leave. 0
 
I was taken aback for a moment and silently followed her. 0
 
I walked closely behind her, feeling somewhat bewildered. 0
