#范文

I would like to tell you a case when I had to work with one salesman in my company in Christmas promotion activities in Aeon supermarket. As I worked in Marketing Department, I had to co-operate with that salesman who was in charge of Aeon supermarket. We had to work through mobile because he was in head office in ABC while I worked for XYZ Branch.

Working with him was extremely challenging to me because he had a caustic style and often spoke in a pejorative way. He seemed to scoff at any idea on our project. At that time, I nearly ran out of patience with that man that I was on the verge of giving up. However, because I was a new staff, I needed some achievements to prove my ability to my team. Thus, I decided to try my best to persuade him. I asked my team leader for some advice, as she had worked with him in some events before. She told me that he didn’t like to be told to do anything, as he was a high narcissist.

Though I was really frustrated by him and didn’t like him personally, I had to tell myself to be patient. I tried hard to calm down, then I decided to call him and asked for some advice because I didn’t have much experience in working in that supermarket. After hearing that, he seemed to talk in a much more comfortable way, explaining to me about the regulation and working contact there, giving me some sound advice. It turned out that getting along with him was not as hard as I had expected. Moreover, I gained some more constructive advice to adjust my plan. In the end, I managed to co-operate with him well and my campaign notched up extraordinary success.

After that event, I learnt a lot about how to work with other people, especially at work. Sometimes, you have to be friendly to someone you don’t like, because the results of your work are always of the highest importance.

     # What are the differences between being friendly and being polite?

A polite person shows good manners while talking to others in terms of behaviourand speech. Whereas, a friendly person acts in a non-threatening manner, by showing kindness towards others.

     # What do you think of the people who are always straightforward?

Being a straight word is a double-edged sword. Sometimes it helps you to make substantial gains in life. On the other hand, it could be detrimental for you if the situation demands diplomatic handling. Therefore, one needs to make a prudent choice before going straightforward.
