The quiet office is filled with the sound of keyboard tapping, but even the employees who appear to be working hard glance at their watches and then glance at someone to get a feel for them.
The time is 5:54, and it’s almost time to leave work, but as any office worker would know,
If the highest ranking boss in the office doesn’t leave work, it’s only natural that you’d notice him or her leaving.
Especially in the case of large corporations like Choi Han Group, since they receive very high salaries and even if they do 2-3 times as much work as others, it is not enough, so there are almost no departments that properly leave work on time.
“It’s almost time to leave work. Everyone, finish up what you’re doing and leave work”
“”””Okay, I understand””◦””
Except for the team leader, the other employees in Sales Team 3 were happy that they could leave work early today and quickly began to finish up what they were doing.
To be exact, since they already knew that the team leader was going to tell them to leave work, the subordinates who were finishing up their work quickly finished up their work and got up from their seats.
“Then see you tomorrow”
“Let’s go in first”
“See you all tomorrow~”
The team leader is sitting alone and working while people are getting up from their seats one by one and leaving work.
This has become a daily routine for Sales Team 3. The team leader works the longest and leaves the office the latest, but no one touches him.
Since my performance in the sales department is not that bad, no one has anything to say, so leaving work earlier than others has become a daily routine.
The employees in other departments looked on with a little envy, but their team leader seemed to have no intention of going home, perhaps because he had a fight with his wife at home yesterday, so today, too, they were forced to work overtime.
As time passed, employees from other departments started leaving work one by one, but only the team leader of Sales Team 3, who left work first, stayed until the end and continued working.
“Whew……I think this is enough…Keuuuung!!”
I was stretching and making noises to relieve my stiff body, but all the other employees had already left work.
Kim Mi-young, the leader of Sales Team 3, looked at her watch as she relaxed without worrying about what other people thought.
“9:30…I’m leaving work a little early today”
She stayed behind to work until everyone else had left work, finished up the work, and got up from her seat.
If she had divided up the work among other team members, it could have been completed in 30 minutes of overtime, but she took on all of it herself, not because she was kind or a pushover.
It’s just a way to subtly change the job to one’s own by taking on most of the ideas suggested by other team members.
Although it may seem like an act of stealing other people’s ideas, this is how she quickly rose to the position of team leader.
The reason why he was able to get promoted so quickly despite being only 33 years old is because he used the carrot and stick well and worked late into the night, doing overtime work as if it were a meal.
My peers are still managers or the faster ones are assistant managers, and in the case of my less capable peers, there are cases where they are deputy managers.
She is the only one who is getting promoted very quickly, and the reason no one on the team says anything about this idea-stealing method is because although other team members may have come up with the ideas, she is the one who handles most of the work.
Team members who come up with or can come up with ideas are living satisfying lives because they get to leave work early, work less intensely, and earn higher salaries than others.
Instead, a team leader who makes good ideas his own takes responsibility for the work and guarantees the work-life balance of other team members, while ignoring work-life balance.
Other team members may not receive promotions or good performance evaluations later on, but these days, employees are satisfied with pursuing a freer and more relaxed life.
This is why her team members’ job satisfaction is much higher than that of other departments, as it is a win-win situation for both parties.
Of course, because of that, she has almost given up her normal life, but for her, whose goal is to go faster and higher, her current life is more satisfying.
“Then shall we go”
Although everyone else has left work and it is dark, she has never seen the sun leave work since she started working here, so the night is more familiar to her.
After she finished organizing things, she went downstairs and a security guard stood in the lobby and greeted her warmly.
“You’re getting off work late again today”
“I’m more used to leaving work at this time now. Have a drink here and work”
“Oh my….Thank you!….Hey, is this weekend possible…..”
“Then take care”
Although we exchanged friendly greetings, as soon as the conversation started to turn into personal matters, he cut me off like a knife and stormed out of the company.
To others, it may seem like we are close friends, but the reality is completely different.
I became close to her on purpose because it was for her own interests, but it wasn’t because I had any particular interest in her.
In the case of security personnel, since they are basically in the lobby, they are in a position where they can immediately know when someone important comes or something happens, which allows them to obtain information more quickly.
In particular, there are times when other executives or CEOs come into the company late at night, and in these cases, it is easy to score points, so I try to be friendly with security guards whom I don’t particularly like.
“The person who was there last time didn’t try to approach me so obviously, which was nice…but it’s a little disappointing”
I don’t know why, but one day, a security guard who was a good information agent was fired, so I unfortunately had to build a new relationship by becoming friends with another security guard.
“But it’s the weekend now, so I should rest”
She may seem like she’s a workaholic, so it seems like she works nonstop even on weekends, but in reality, her pattern is to do minimal or no work on weekends.
Since I work late every weekday and wake up early to go to work, my body is very tired, so I try to relax as much as possible on the weekends.
Of course, she lives a very tiring life to others who are somewhat prepared to go to work right away if there is work at the company, but she works harder than anyone else to achieve the goal she set since childhood.
‘Even if it’s hard, you have to do this much to become a CEO’
Although some may say that it seems a bit too much, it is no exaggeration to say that she has prepared for almost 20 years to achieve this goal.
Miyoung first decided to become the CEO of a large company when she was in middle school.
She was no different from other children, but when she was in middle school, she saw a transfer girl and for the first time realized that there were people living in a different world from where she lived.
Even though they were both middle school students, she felt a sense of emptiness when she first met someone who was in the top 1% and who dressed, lived, and rode completely different clothes.
However, Miyoung had never been dissatisfied with her life because she lived in a decent family, but she learned that there was a life of a different dimension when she went to the house of a friend who had transferred to her school.
The life of the upper class, with only things several times larger, more luxurious, and more luxurious in their own home, and even a housekeeper to take care of the house separately
The cosmetics worth several hundred thousand won that she had barely managed to buy after begging her mother for several days were just ordinary cosmetics in her house.
At the time, he was a transfer student whose father was an executive director at the headquarters of Choi Han Group, so he was living a life on a different level, which was enough to make me feel jealous and envious.
Normally, seeing this different life would have been enough to make her feel envious and jealous, but from this point on, Miyoung began to have a goal in life.
He said that he would rise to a higher position….
From then on, I studied like crazy, always ranked in the top 3 in my school, went to the best university, and not only that, I also acquired all the qualifications and specs that companies wanted, and at the age of 25, I proudly joined the headquarters of Choi Han Group, and with even more crazy efforts, I was promoted at lightning speed to the position of team leader.
She must have worked so hard that when she was a student, her mother would sometimes fight with her and tell her to take a break while studying.
Still, she didn’t stop and went up faster than anyone else, but she wasn’t satisfied yet.
“If things continue like this, I think I’ll be able to get promoted to executive in a few years… The problem is what happens after that”
It’s very difficult to rise to the executive level, but it’s possible for someone as capable and accomplished as her.
But going any higher is quite difficult for her too.
No matter how successful a country may be, this country is not a place where ability alone is the basis for evaluation.
It is no exaggeration to say that without the so-called connections such as school ties, regional ties, and blood ties, it is almost impossible to rise to the position of president even if you are promoted to the executive level.
That’s why Miyoung is trying to impress not only her colleagues but also her executives.
Thanks to that, some pretty capable executives look up to her and she doesn’t have to worry too much about getting promoted.
“I guess I need to rest for a while….”
She works tirelessly to become the CEO, but she is still human, so rest is important to her.
Since tomorrow is the weekend, she was able to sleep for more than 6 hours for the first time in a while and fell into a deep sleep for the first time in a long time.
(Team Leader Kim Mi-young!!!!)
