Chapter 48 Chief Lin
On the first day after being discharged from the hospital, Lin Yuanfang clearly felt the change in people's attitude towards him.
In the past, ordinary colleagues were fine. Although their attitude was not very warm, they would say hello when they met Lin Yuanfang on the road. However, those leaders such as the office director and deputy director were different. After seeing him, they would avoid his gaze and walked forward on their own, as if they did not see Lin Yuanfang.
Although Lin Yuanfang felt uncomfortable in his heart, he understood this situation. After all, these leaders are different from those who are soldiers below. They have to consider their future at all times. Lin Yuanfang is the former director Fan Yimin, and now he has frequent contacts with Fan Yimin, which has become a taboo in the eyes of these people. They are afraid that they will say a few words to Lin Yuanfang, and will be seen by those who are interested, and will be heard in the ears of the top leader Wang Tianfang. Think about it, they are still chatting and laughing like this with a person who has maintained close contact with the former director Fan Yimin. What do you want to do? Do you still have any position?
In the agency, the so-called position is actually the position of the top leader.
Even the middle-level department heads, deputy section chiefs, were all responsible for their duties, and only limited their business dealings with Lin Yuanfang, and were not involved in other aspects. The only exception is Wang Hulin, deputy section chief of the Urban Construction Planning Department, who is careless, but Lin Yuanfang also knew that the reason why Wang Hulin did not care about maintaining private contact with him was not because of his careless personality, but because Wang Hulin's brother-in-law was the deputy director of the Tianyang Municipal Planning Bureau.
But today Lin Yuanfang came to the Planning Bureau compound, and the situation became different. His colleagues took the initiative to say hello to him from a distance. Although it was just meaningless nonsense like "Secretary Lin, early!", the vivid and eager smile on his face was very different from the past.
After seeing him, several deputy directors did not choose to avoid his gaze and walked straight forward, but slowed down slightly, nodded at Lin Yuanfang with a smile, and even said unnutritious jokes such as "Far from afar, I have been hospitalized for more than ten days, and I have been covered in white, gained weight, and looked more energetic than before."
But jokes that are no longer nutritious are also jokes, which means that these bureau leaders no longer reject him and regard him as an alternative employee.
I have to admit that this feeling is very good. Lin Yuanfang believes that he is not a frivolous person, but he still enjoys this feeling very much.
Humans are essentially social animals. No matter how self-admiring people are, they need to communicate with others. This requires integration into an interpersonal circle, but the scope of the circle is large or small. Lin Yuanfang never regrets his actions of getting close to Fan Yimin, but it is absolutely not good to be isolated. Now he can return to normal state and not deliberately alienated or isolated by others. This feeling is indeed good.
When he arrived at the Planning and Technology Office, Zhang Xiaojun was mopping the floor with his butt sticking out. Lin Yuanfang suddenly remembered that it was Friday, so he said embarrassedly: "Oh, Xiao Zhang, why are you embarrassed to bother you? I should be on duty today."
Zhang Xiaojun turned his head and saw that it was Lin Yuanfang, and a bright smile appeared on his face: "Secretary Lin, don't say that, we should have done this job."
"How can that work?" Lin Yuanfang said, "Let's take turns to do it in the future." As he said that, he came to his seat, put his briefcase, and was about to sit down, but suddenly he found that the table in front of him was not his. Hey, where is his table? When he turned his head, he found that his table was placed in the place where Zhang Xiaojun originally placed his desk. Isn't the table in front of him the desk?
"Xiao Zhang, what's going on?" Lin Yuanfang said, pointing to the table.
Zhang Xiaojun held the mop in his hand, smiled and said, "Secretary Lin, I'm sorry, I didn't ask you for instructions, but changed the desk to you. You are the leader, and it's not convenient to sit at the door..."
In the office, you can even write a book on office politics when you look at everyone's desk.
Take the position of this table as an example. Where you sit, where he sits, and where I sit are all determined by your status in the office, and there is no room for choice.
For example, Zhang Haiyang, the head of the Planning Technology Department, his desk is arranged at the innermost part of the office against the window. This location has good light, a wide view, and is tired from work. You can look out the scenery outside the window, relax your nerves, and regulate your vision.
The place where Zhang Xiaojun originally placed his desk was against the wall in the middle. This place looked good, but the light was a little worse. However, because of the planning and technical department, Zhang Xiaojun came in earlier than Lin Yuanfang and was older than Lin Yuanfang, so he naturally occupied this position.
Lin Yuanfang originally had the place where his desk was placed, but he could only lean against the closest place to the door of the office. Because he was very experienced and was not a leader, he could only sit in this position. This position is the worst position in the entire office, because when people were close to the door, people had to pass through his eyes when entering and leaving. Moreover, when someone knocked outside, Lin Yuanfang would say "Please come in", or get up and go around the desk to open the door for others. There was no way, who would let him get close to the door!
But now, Zhang Xiaojun took the initiative to change the position of his desk with Lin Yuanfang. For no other reason, it was because Lin Yuanfang had been appointed as the deputy section chief of the Planning Technology Department. At this time, the qualifications obviously did not work. The decisive role was Lin Yuanfang's identity as the leader, so Zhang Xiaojun consciously and actively changed the desks of the two people.
The same is true for Zhang Xiaojun to come here to clean up in advance today. Originally, he and Lin Yuanfang took turns on duty, and Zhang Xiaojun was often late, and his work basically fell on Lin Yuanfang alone. In fact, there was nothing to do, just wiping the table and mopping the floor to turn on the water, pouring the leftover tea in Zhang Haiyang's cup, and brewing new tea. However, the reason why Zhang Xiaojun delayed and putting most of the work on Lin Yuanfang's shoulders was to show Lin Yuanfang that in the planning technical department, although we are both soldiers, I am older than you, so I am superior to your status.
"Xiao Zhang, you are too polite. Actually, you don't need to change it. It's good for me to sit outside." Lin Yuanfang said polite words and sat in the middle. Although it was just a small change in position, Lin Yuanfang suddenly felt the beauty of power in his heart. It turned out that he was like Zhang Xiaojun, when he was a clerk, Zhang Xiaojun made things difficult for him everywhere and kept making tricks. Now that he had just been promoted to the position of deputy section chief, Zhang Xiaojun immediately changed his face and was respectful in front of him. Although Lin Yuanfang did not believe that the respect of a villain like Zhang Xiaojun was from the heart, Lin Yuanfang didn't care about this. As long as he was the leader of Zhang Xiaojun, Zhang Xiaojun had to show this respectful look in front of him, which was enough.
The safest way to deal with a villain is to press him under you. At least he will be honest when you ride him.
