Easy to take leave

To put it bluntly

The company has approximately 10 employees.

The atmosphere is extremely poor.

It is a company controlled by an old subordinate.

The boss basically only cares about money. Anyone who has spoken with him should be able to quickly realize that he really has no substance.

There is no execution capability, no management ability, and no problem-solving ability.

He only looks at the surface of everything and has a thick skin. He is 87% like our national military. Anyone who has worked with him should know what I mean. (The boss was also a professional soldier in the past.)

Also, I almost forgot to mention: although this is a music-related industry, this handsome boss knows absolutely nothing about music, so don't even think about discussing music with him.

The boss's greatest strength is probably observing the company's cleanliness—for example, whether his fish's anus is clean, whether everyone's desks are tidy, and so on.

Or calling everyone into the conference room just to talk about "how" certain things should be used.

When everyone thinks they are about to hear about some important annual company matter, all they hear is the aforementioned blah blah blah.

If you have a lot of free time and want to earn money with no future while working alongside an empty-headed boss, I suggest submitting your résumé immediately—although there is no need to hurry.

That is because the company's turnover rate is extremely high. Anyone with even a little common sense knows that this is not a place to stay for long.

As for the high turnover rate, the boss is also "excellent": he believes it is all the departing employees' problem and does not need to understand their issues.

He can just find someone else. In short, he is looking for cheap, disposable employees who constantly put the company first. (P.S. Best of luck finding them soon.)

You can look at this company's job postings on the employment websites. The recruitment requirements are described very nicely, but the salary, listed as negotiable, is probably around 26,000–28,000.

The benefits are just enough to deceive newcomers, mostly consisting of items required by the Labor Standards Act. Apart from the three major holiday bonuses and year-end bonus, not one item is what could be called a "benefit."

Of course, benefits are not mandatory, but because there are none, they can only pad the list with irrelevant items.

"Enjoy paid annual leave after completing six months of service." After seeing this, wouldn't you apply?

Also, if you want to win the boss's favor, remember not to leave work on time. Even if you have nothing to do after work, stay at the company and pretend to be busy, chatting aimlessly with the boss.

Several old subordinates understand this very well. If you don't, you can ask them for advice on "how to make the boss think you are a serious and responsible employee."

In particular, one male old subordinate is obviously just someone who loves sucking up to the boss. Feel free to ask him for guidance.

And the most important point: never offend an old subordinate. Even if you have all kinds of complaints about his behavior and report them to the boss,

it will still be futile. That old subordinate holds an irreplaceable position in the boss's heart. The boss will not listen to anything else—and would not understand it anyway.

Next, the company environment.

There is no need to mention the computers used for work: some are old, and others are simply poor. The boss has no intention of replacing them.

Because all of that costs money, and spending money is his Achilles' heel. As long as something can still be used, it will continue to be used.

There is no such thing as an upgrade. Naturally, the company will not upgrade either; judging by the current situation, things are getting worse and worse.

As for the relationships among coworkers, just wear a mask and laugh things off every day. Fortunately, there is also one old subordinate who is not at the company.

He works from home, supposedly because he needs to take care of his child. Taking care of a child is hard, of course. (The child is already in kindergarten—take care of what?)

He also carries weight in the boss's eyes because he has a good educational background (as mentioned earlier, the boss places considerable emphasis on appearances) and studied music.

Therefore, the boss believes he understands music very well. But if you ever have a chance to talk with him, you will also realize that this is all "understanding music" amounts to.

But in fact, all of these problems are thanks to the boss. Because he lacks ability, he has delegated a considerable amount of authority to the old subordinates,

which has led to the company's current state of affairs.

In conclusion, leave once you've had enough. But this experience will not help much with the next stage of your life, and don't expect any promotion opportunities.

Most importantly, don't try to lecture the boss or have a heart-to-heart conversation with him. People who have never experienced the real world will not listen to you.
