How to deal with "new bird" syndrome in the workplace?

dracas SG

Any ideas? When you join a new company, you noticed that there are some hidden political structure in which among the colleagues, whos the dominant ones and leader? How do you assimilate in without disrupting the social order and offending the lao jiao? Or do you just gate-crash outperform them in everyway so that you have the boss backing lol.

Humility... is a cultivation. It reaps underated but solid benefits. Of course its helps if one's adaptibility is high.

Yes adaptability high is good. Just have to suck it up and think of myself as a chao recruit who gets bullied by the lao jiao and keep diam diam.

It doesn't have to be as bad as you wanna portray it to be. You started negatively, most probably it'll yeild negative. So fulfill your obligations and deal with the rest objectively. :)

Just do as you are told and suck it up.

You will reach the ranks of the "old birds" in a matter of time.
