When you first entered the workplace, did you have the experience of "saying the wrong thing"?

I have had such an experience, and it is still a "dog blood" experience. But before I talk about my own experience, let me talk about the experience of a netizen.

A netizen shared his first career experience online. The thing is this: this netizen, as a newcomer, is working on a project with the financial team leader, but the financial team leader doesn't know much about the content. It is the project assistant who is really familiar with the work. Later, I made a mistake on the project, and the project leader didn't tell him this before.

In the face of the doubt of the financial team leader, he bluntly said that the project assistant did not teach him the relevant content. However, the financial team leader thinks that he is shirking his responsibility and pushing the mistake to others. Therefore, he feels depressed, and he doesn't know if he said something wrong, let alone how to express the truth.

In fact, this netizen didn't say anything wrong, but there is no right or wrong in such a thing, and there is no need to go to the financial team leader to make it clear. I know in my heart what's wrong. Remember not to make the same mistake next time. This is an experience that workplace rules can help me grow up. Be sure to ask more questions before you do something, especially something you haven't done.

I also took the blame when I first entered the workplace. Once our superior assigned a task, but he didn't tell everyone directly, but asked the group leaders to distribute it. As a result, the leader of our group forgot and he didn't remember until the leader criticized him for the lack of progress in our group.

But he explained to the leader that his business was too busy, and this job was arranged by me (deputy head). Then he came to me and let me take the fall. Of course I don't want to do it, and frankly, I have to explain it to the leader, which also makes him very unhappy.

Later, I really talked to the leader, and the effect was unexpected. The leader said "I see" and added that proper "taking the blame" will help you grow faster. I didn't comfort me or criticize the team leader. I'm just saying, team leader, don't do this in the future.

After this incident, the team leader began to crowd me out, and finally I left the company. I'm not saying that we should take the blame for others, but that we should make more appropriate decisions according to the reality. In fact, if I don't tell the leader about my affairs, there will be nothing, and the leader will thank me for it.

Many of us who are new to the workplace still need to learn. Only by constantly "learning" can we adapt to the workplace and play around it.
