greatest ambition

The American drama "Crack" is a story about the battle between the queen of the workplace and the rookie. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a war in the end. This war is not asymmetrical, and the two are mainly poor in workplace struggle experience and personal connections. When I was working for a short time, I was really thrilled to see it, as if I had found a workplace battle guide.
Of course, various contradictions will be magnified on the screen, which is crueler than reality, but many plots have reference significance. What touched me the most was one of the incidents: Tom, an old employee, found a new person Ellen after leaving Queen Patty, and persuaded her to change jobs to help him, but Ellen refused. Tom later rejoined Patty, and his closeness to Ellen caused the Queen's unease. So she inquired about whether the two had ever had private contact before, but Tom denied it, and although Ellen also agreed, she was hesitant, thinking that she shouldn't lie to the boss. Tom tried to persuade her not to do stupid things, and out of trust, Ellen did as he told him even if she was upset.
Patty has her own tricks. She showed all her enthusiasm to Ellen in front of Tom, and arranged for her to do things that she would normally only tell Tom to do, and told not to tell others. Tom was suspicious and ignored Ellen on purpose, and the relationship between the two took a turn for the worse. Ellen was distressed, took the initiative to find Tom, expressed her loyalty and trust in their friendship from the bottom of her heart, and said sincerely: "I deserve your trust, how about you, do you also deserve my trust?"
Click! The story is paused, so far, I agree with Ellen's approach, and it is very likely that I will also communicate with people in the same way, hoping to exchange a sincere attitude for a relationship of trust. Especially seeing Tom solemnly nodded his head and promised with a moved face, I was very pleased that the queen's alienation conspiracy went bankrupt.
The next episode caught me off guard, like setting up an ice cellar. Ellen left with relief, and Tom immediately called Potty: "Boss, I'm sorry, when I was going to go it alone, I did find Ellen." The little rookie was betrayed in a few minutes in exchange for the queen's trust. Patty is very satisfied: "Keep an eye on Ellen for me." "No problem!"
Cruel, cruel, really regarded as shit, in the workplace turned out to be worthless, making people suddenly turn around and get hit with an arrow. I have realized one thing: Do not over-rely on and absolutely trust people who have entangled interests. You must be careful in every step of what you should say and do, and you must be careful and considerate in every step, not to harm others, but at least to increase yourself in the workplace. chance of survival.
Where there are people, there is politics, and there is political struggle. I don't know if this applies to the whole world, but from my little experience, I can already feel some turbulence. The first thing to do is to try to protect yourself. In the end, everyone is pursuing power and interests, and I have never had much ambition for this. But now I gradually understand a truth: being able to protect yourself at work is actually the biggest winner, and this is the biggest ambition.

    Went for Glenn Close, but the plot kind of let me down.
