Don't scold dead wages, it's dead work that drags you down

Recently, many people have talked to me about the system. They talk about the young people who will not leave the system even if they are killed. They gnash their teeth. They are obviously struggling and suffering, but there are always various reasons. They would rather complain than change. So many people gnash their teeth and say that your dead salary is dragging you down.

To be honest, I have always felt that people nowadays have a little misunderstanding about dead wages.

Those who get a dead salary may not live badly, and many people live well. Those who do not get a dead salary may not live well either. They probably often have a day of drinking northwest wind. According to colleagues, after ten years in the workplace, it was shameful not to have a stable income.

Many people feel that dead wages cannot create value. After all, it is the same whether they work hard or not. There is no difference between more and less work. To be honest, I don't think so. Dead wages really can't be generalized.

I have a colleague who has been in the workplace for more than ten years and has experienced countless bizarre job hopping, often moving horizontally, and his salary does not rise. The key is that the work he does is not next to anywhere.

Party A and Party B ran around, the front desk and backstage ran blindly, everyone could not understand his job-hopping logic, saying that he was messing around, until one day, jumped to our company, the boss suddenly discovered his talent: he knew everything he said.

This was great. He rose to the top and no one could stop him.

Everyone patted him on the shoulder and praised him for his foresight. At this time, he always smiled faintly and said,"I have to thank you for your death salary." You're gonna vomit blood.

In fact, such people also exist in the system. I've only seen one. He's been in the system for many years. Although he gets a dead salary, he gets a lot of resources.

One day, I felt that I was enough cattle, and I became a hot cake outside the system in minutes. These people are all people who are promoted by dead wages. They can always expose a cruel truth. It's not the dead wages that have a problem, it's you who have a problem.

People work these days and they only have their eyes on money. Dead wages are a typical example.

In fact, money is not necessarily a good yardstick to judge whether a person has a future or not. I think it's more worth paying attention to whether the job is dead than whether the salary is dead.

Over the years, many friends have left the big company. Although ten thousand thanks to the big company for giving them resumes that they can brag about, it is undeniable that the big company has no attraction for them. The reason is actually very simple, a radish a pit, do radish do tired.

In fact, not tired, is very clear in the heart, no future.

Not to mention, one day there will be a radish that is better looking and cheaper than you to grab the rice bowl, even if it is the pit you desperately defend, it may be directly filled. The pit is gone, where can I put the radish? This is an in-depth summary of our workplace made by a friend.

In fact, even if some people do not get a dead salary, they can not get rid of the fate of being dragged down.

Let's say some departments in our company have good performance, with dividends every year and salary increases every year. However, the whole department is like a mass of dead ashes, all of which are listless and live on the edge.

Especially the boss of their department. He looked like a debt collector when he met anyone. In fact, I know why, in the workplace, the biggest pain in middle age is the ceiling. Since he had already become the boss of the department, he wanted to climb up more or less. There was indeed a passage, but he failed every time.

On the contrary, every year, a middle-level department that looked bad would be promoted to the management level. In fact, discerning people can see that he is a capable person, but unfortunately he can do too little.

Why moving from middle to management is an obstacle most people can't overcome, because some people are particularly obsessed with believing that doing their job well will do.

What was even more terrifying was that almost all of their departments thought so. They did not want to contact their own external affairs at all.

In the past, I also felt that doing my own thing well was excellent, but later I found that how big a person's vision is, how big a career can be. This is an obstacle that many people find difficult to overcome on their way to career advancement.

Once, chatting with the boss, he said a word to me, gave me a wake-up call, many people will become slow after working for a long time. Every day seems to be hard work, wages are also increasing with age, but when a job is particularly skilled, they are often unwilling to learn new things, try new things, and are unwilling to take on more. This comfort zone is scary.

Think of so many years in the workplace, often do one thing, throw their own things will not do people. This is efficient for the overall project, but it may be disastrous for personal development.

Work should be a map, but most people only have the land in front of their own door. This limitation is largely due to the obsession with money. If you don't pay me, why should I do it? But sometimes, you have to do it first to make a lot of money.

Cui Jin, founder of Pea Pod, graduated from Peking University at the age of 22 and became one of Baidu's earliest employees. Then she switched to the most professional public relations company in China, mixed with Google, and went to Li Kaifu's innovation workshop a few years later.

When she resigned from Baidu, she got two offers and finally chose West Bank, which had a lower salary, because West Bank was the best PR company in China at that time. From West Coast to Google, her salary dropped 30%. When I joined the Innovation Workshop, I paid 10,000 yuan a month, which is said to be directly returned to my salary seven years ago. But Cui Jin said that her goal is very clear, do meaningful things.

This sentence, in fact, these years really heard a lot, especially successful entrepreneurs, always put things before the interests. Ma Yun's father once said: Most people believe because they see, and only a few people believe because they see. Most people don't believe in the future, so they dare not try, but we believe that even if we take a detour, it is better than standing still.

What do you mean, standing still? It's not your salary, it's your standard.

These years in the workplace, I have seen a lot of salary-oriented people, there is a problem, is only look at the salary, do not look at the content. Professor Ning Xiangdong once mentioned a concept, subordinate force. Including the uniqueness of the work, the irreplaceability of the position and the hallmark of the work results, and the strength of learning is the watershed of a person's subordinate strength.

This is actually a huge blind spot in the career promotion process.

It's not terrible to get a dead salary. As long as your work itself has value, what's really terrible is that you get a dead salary, but you don't make any progress. It's a miracle not to collapse.
