介绍:
非常感谢热心听众【张惠云- Bibi】对本文稿的贡献! Heyang: If there is someone most likely to drop into your nightmares, it is your boss. Our bosses are very special to us - they know what drives us, how to hurt us, and most shamefully, where our bottom lines are. Today is their turn to be whipped by Round Table. Whish, OK didn’t do it right. But anyway this topic has been inspired by a post on WeChat public account on shameless and has so much fun reading it. Guys, have you encountered any of these bosses ever in your life? Ryan: Well, OK let’s talk about these bosses because I think the names are very awesome. But we are gonna do some censoring here on some of the names, you can check the same article if you so wish. But the first one, no problems, the emperor boss. Now imagine it, and the emperor, what is an emperor, dude? Here is people take care of them. He is in a position of power, he is a powerful man. Well yes the emperor boss is a very powerful man, he doesn’t want to...you know, get his own coffee, or he has an assistant to do a lot of work for. This kinds of boss that are really like the menial tasks he has someone do it for. Heyang: Yeah, ask someone to do it for him or her actually, could be an empress boss. And if it’s a woman in that position, could be equally as bad and demanding if not more. Luo Yu: But I think on most occasions these emperor bosses are not very demanding. You know, you just pour them a cup of tea, or get the parcels for them, or get their schedules done, things like that. They will not be bossing you around, form my perspective. Ryan: It is a way to win favor with the emperor. But at the same time too, as long as I think the tasks are menial, like please give me a cup of coffee, oh like can you lighten my cigarette. It’s kind of things like…dude you can do this you know. But I haven’t actually experienced any kind of emperor bosses, I don’t know about you guys. But there is one boss that I have experienced maybe you guys have also experienced it—the credit-owner boss. And Shameless describes this kind of boss, the boss is like come on guys, we are a team! Let’s do this! And then if the team fails, he’s like: well, my team failed, I don’t know what they did wrong uhm, you know, they jump out of the situation. And they include themselves when the good is good. They will be there and say oh I am a part of the team. But if the team messes up, they are immediately in the boss position and segregate themselves from it. Heyang: You actually been a victim to this. Ryan: Absolutely, people will always jump to greener pastures. Heyang: Oh that’s not good at all. And I’d even take it a step further and say some of these credit-owner bosses, it could be credit-owner professors as well, you know, if you’re a student. And sometimes, they take credit of your hard work, your fruit of labor, and don’t give you any recognization at all. And I think that’s the worst type. It’s like you work so hard, and you don’t exist. And they don’t even remember you sometimes. And you just feel…I just felt like I was a complete loser and was being used. Luo Yu: A lot of people have the same feeling of being used by other people, it happens a lot in every corner of the workplace around the world, I think, even happens in CRI. Heyang: Oh! Tell us more about that. Luo Yu: There are people who did the interviews, who had the story lines, who had conducted interviews by himself. And all of a sudden, there was a supervisor level person who asked the person to write his name first when they’re going to apply for award. This happens a lot. Heyang: Yes, it’s kind of practice in certain circles. And I just wonder I mean, in those kind of situations of course, it’s very easy to say that we are the victims to it. But there is the other side of the argument that sees this as sort of a path that everybody has to go on for a little while because that’s how you earn trust form the boss or your professor. And also gain more experiences and through the way you might get some exposure. And I even like to respond to the first boss type that Ryan talked about, the emperor boss. Sometimes, on the surface, it’s like you are doing a personal errand for your boss. Like sometimes, the boss asks someone as strong as Ryan to change the water filter. But it’s not because it’s a personal favor. It’s more like they trust you and they want you to do something. So I mean there are different angles to look at this. Ryan: Like moving forward on this, like being a good boss. I think a good boss should expect less people doing like catering to him, as he caters to his employees. Coz I feel like if you encourage your employees, you make them happy. They will be very productive, and as a boss, you will be rocking your job. So a good boss is an encouraging boss. Heyang: That’s true. What about the boss 2nd generation? Do you have anything to say about that, Luo Yu? Luo Yu: Well, boss 2nd generation. Usually, the female inferiors have a very good depiction about them, you know, they want to be hugged by theses boss 2nd generation. They think them to be very affluent and very powerful. But actually in reality on most occasions, they’re not that rich and sometimes their body shape is not that good as well. Heyang: It sounds like someone’s got personal vendetta towards this 2nd generation bosses. Yes, that could be…uh sometimes, people shouldn’t take the face value of things. And also what are some of the other bosses that you think, they are just not good? Ryan: Well there is the not nice lady boss. Yes I am censoring that name can be both man and woman. But someone who like kind of sleeps their way to the top. They use their assets to get their special job, which I don’t think is good. Heyang: Yeah well sometimes, I feel that there is just the prejudice against powerful hard-working and good-looking women. And there, sometimes, when she gets on top, then there seems to be that kind of discrimination towards her. That scandals and rumors could be made up.
