Lessons in Management

Today I learnt a few lessons in management... Some that I already knew!
Some that I did not.
People Management
1) One should never date at work.
2) One should never make the best of friends at work.
3) One should never tell the truth. At the same time, one should never lie!
4) One should never talk more than is required. Information should not be shared unless asked for.

The right mask
May make sense... may not! Nevertheless, these are some important lessons...
After all... its all about the right mask!

Hey!

Very interesting! But I wouldn’t use the word never… You can meet very cool people at workplace! Thanks to total internet anonymity i will admit that I have done 1 and 2 on more then one occasion…have never regretted it for a second... won’t do it again any time soon… those are good rules after all!
Elaborate on 3 please. How is that possible? Are you sure that you’ve got it right? :P
True - it’s not who we are, or how good we are, its how we are perceived by others…

Nice to see you blogging again!

U: I agree that we do meet very cool people at workplace. I have myself been guilty of a few things that deft the 'laws'.
3 is pretty simple. You dont have to tell a lie. You just don't about it unless a specific question is asked. This way, you don't have to tell the truth either!
Its all about a matter of perception. Honestly, it is the perception of the powers that be that matters!

Its nice to be blogging again! I guess we all need a jolt to get out of deep slumber!

TBK: I don't know if it is the best thing... me think it may not be so...
Nevertheless... if you want to be where you want to be...
There are a few things that you believe are acceptable that you have to do!
You have to place a mask... you have to learn to hide your thoughts!
