When I watched this movie, I had just resigned from the work of the devil. I was tired of the same poor job that I had done for five years. I was tired of the long process and unrealistic system in the company. I was even more resistant to the arrangement of the devil. A superior who doesn't know how to do it. As if I had done a career survey, I gave myself a negative answer, and then resolutely submitted my resignation. The witch said to me, "Go back and discuss with your mother."
This sentence reflects the relationship between me and her - not enough friends, but more than colleagues.
Five years ago when I submitted my resignation letter, I had just graduated from university like Andy. I didn’t know what my future would look like. I just sent resumes all over the world according to my instinctive interests. I received an interview notice on Thursday, and I went to the company for an interview on Friday. I was interviewed by the highest-level executive CEO in the company. Of course, the scale of the company was not as big as it is now, and I was very unsophisticated at that time. I had no skills in interviews, and all the company needed was a female commissioner-level copywriter who was good at writing and gender. The reason why the devil is the devil lies in the fact that he can do everything himself in the execution of strategic and tactical management. She believes that the newly formed marketing department is very important, so a staff member at the commissioner level has to be interviewed and selected in person. On Saturday, I received a job offer. At that time, I was still planning to find a few more interview units and three price comparisons. Though I thought so, I still went to work on time on Monday.
The first time I wanted to resign was a month after I joined the company-because there is no computer, all documents need to be handwritten by myself, and then I wait for my colleagues to use the computer to enter them. Of course, as a rookie in the workplace at the time, I didn't know that I should go to the human resources department and the IT department if I didn't have a computer. The witch walked past the office, stopped in front of me, and asked, "Where's your computer?" My computer was configured the next day. Then she started to clean up the efficiency of the corporate department. At that time, this was a start-up company that had only been in development for five years. She was one of the founders. She was an art major, and she finally entered the industry as management. Appeared in the office still in good spirits. Regardless of age, men, women and children in the company, they are all trembling when facing her.
I thought maybe I was the only one on the company's fifth anniversary who saw the folds on the back of her suit without being ironed out and smiling at the government inspection. After five years, her top-to-bottom temperament and clothes are almost indistinguishable.
Although I'm not working as Andy's assistant, and I spend my daily life in the constant thorns of the devil, but there is also a copywriting that the devil has drawn beyond recognition, rewriting the experience more than ten times, and being taught by her. Experience in how to model and do market data analysis. Thanks to the small scale of the company at that time, she would have the energy to spend the training time on the small staff who were not working around. While assisting the marketing manager to establish the marketing department, she also gave me a marketing course in disguise.
When my first marketing manager left, power relations within the department changed, and I was caught off guard by the office politics that I thought had been so far away. At that time, the female devil was on vacation abroad. After returning to China, she was dealing with all kinds of problems in the company. Occasionally, she passed by my desk, grabbed my mobile phone, pointed to the photo of Leslie Cheung on my mobile phone, and said, "I am also very happy. I like him. You are doing very well, why are you leaving?" This year, I was at the level of a supervisor, and I was still not a sophisticated person. Tears flowed down when I heard this sentence.
When my third direct superior marketing director left, the company had already ranked among the top 50 in the domestic industry, the office had changed from half-floor to two-storey at first, and the scale of the company had increased six times. The human resources department did not recruit a suitable marketing director. The devil called me into the office and said to me: "I want to give you a chance to double your salary." She didn't know, because the superiors left , my pressure has increased sharply, and working overtime until the early morning every day makes me want to go. She said, "It depends on whether you have the skills." I said, "I am the youngest in the department." She gave me a stack of pay slips, and I filled out what I thought was appropriate for each colleague in the department. After the size of the raise, I thought I could stay and try.
For a year after that, I was still in a messy state of working overtime every day until the early morning. Of course, she also worked overtime in the office. Because the direct report object became her, my inexperience or ill-conceived or work mistakes were all exposed in front of her. Since then, being yelled at by her has become commonplace, and my work efficiency has continued to improve under her strict requirements and constantly push my limits. It's a hell of a job. So I can understand Andy's exhaustion under Miranda's command.
The female devils in the world are always strikingly similar, and celibacy and power are the main footnotes in their lives. At work, he has the consciousness of putting his life on the line, and the management methods are rigid and even cruel, and he has an aura that men fear and admire. Their speech ability is first-class, their teaching ability is first-class, and their political skills are first-class, but they lack affinity. It seems that such a female devil can always become the most suitable workplace mentor for a rookie in the workplace.
Andy saw Miranda face the weak side of life and was instantly filled with sympathy and pity. You haven't seen the lonely and forbearing side of the female devil, and you may never be able to understand their publicity and even domineering in front of them. Like Andy, I saw that the female devils were emotionally unhappy and lonely in life. They didn't have too many friends, and there were always a lot of people around them who coveted their wealth or resources with ulterior motives. Maybe because of loneliness, they know that they will not refuse their approach, and empty social interactions are part of their lives.
I resigned in the same mood as Andy resigned from Miranda. She is because of ideals, and I am because of boredom. When I made the final resignation statement, I explained all my work over the years, and she took it seriously, but she didn't say anything to keep me.
