I have worked in Mahle for almost half a year.Although I will be a quality engineer,I always not feel good.Beacuse I find that people in this company are not positive and not effective.I Feel so disappointed.I think I must do something to change my life.If not,I will be the same person as them.It is not an expectation I want to see in the future. I always say that the person can be alive without money,but can not be alive without hope. I can not change the thinking of the leaders.But I can change my job and make me live in a hopeful life. Just give it to the person that are in the almost same circumstances as mine. Thank you very much for your reading!

i read somewhere "do not teach pigs to sing, it wastes your time and it bothers the pig!" what does it mean? well, you cannot change people, it must initiate from within themselves. if you are really not happy with your work, there is always a choice. always remember that. however, sometimes the choice is not a desirable one. if you really see no hope, find another job.

Do not teach pigs to sing,it wastes your time and it bothers the pig!It is really a good idea. Just do the thing you need to do?If I do not want to make a hugely progress in this company. Adjust myself to endure the person and do the things what do not need to do and so on.?If I want to be a good "pig" what you said.Ha…Ha… Thank you very much for your advice.

If you join any company however good they look from distance, once you get in there will always be problems like: 1. You are not recognized 2. Colleagues are not positive thinking 3. Many people are not working but still get recognition 4. Boss will always take on you Hundreds of such things repeat in different volumes and there is no such thing as job satisfaction. What is important is adaptability to situation and environment in which you work. You have to learn only [3 A's] that is ACCEPT - Accept what people are. You cannot and should not go on change them. It is frustrating. APPRECIATE what they are: Try and give now and then, appreciation in words or in writing for whatevery they ahve done, for you it looks trivial, but for them it is a big work done. Keep appreciating. ADJUST - with everyone. I feel everyone should become psychologists to understand other's behaviours, idiosyncrasies (including our own) and accordingly adjust to some extent, a bit of give and take. Adjust means do not give up your originality. If a boss scolds you, just listen and ignore. If he is right, take it in right spirit. If he is wrong, just tell him in plain words that h is wrong. Many egoist bosses do not like their mistakes to be pointed out.

Thank you very much for your article. Adjusting oneself is very important .But it is very difficult.However I want to have a try.But it is really a bad try.Although the thinking is bad too. All the crows in the world are black generally.We can not make every person in the world fit us .so we have to adjust ourself to fit the world. Theory of evolution is very cruel but is also actuality.
