kissing butt.

hahaha..

it's an art-form. i just ducked out of a very important meeting to bump knuckles with a visiting supervisor that will be deciding my future promotional fate. i came back to my webex meeting to, "cliff? cliff?..are you on mute?..i guess he stepped out"

i apologize and tell them i had to step out to say hi to _____. the entire room broke out in laughter when someone started making smooching sounds.

so funny (you have to be there).

in Chinese there is a phrase. phonetically, it is "chaat High"..it means "Shining shoes"

shining shoes. the best thing about being Cantonese are the funny phrases.

So, are you leaning one way or the other?

longer commute and promotion to management?
stepping back to your old spot, and hoping for similar promotion down the road?

"Shining shoes." I like that vs butt kissing or brown nosing.

Tell them to fook off. It's your career, not theirs.
