Everyone has Monday morning blues. But if this continues on other days too, you know something is not right. It could be you. It could be your job!

To office and back. It’s the same story everyday: tensions, arguments, pressures, deadlines, targets and competition. And as if the office work is not enough to make our life complex, there is an additional headache of office politics!

For some, it is their source of survival at the organisation. But for sincere, non-political people like you, it may be a threat to your survival in the company. Because while the cunning politicians in your organisation walk away with the piece of cake, you may be left gasping for what you truly deserve!

Tanisha works as an Oracle DBA for her company. Last week she got a very attractive offer from another company but she is bound to her company with a very restrictive contract.

Boss. The one person can make you life a living hell!

You boss may not be like a typical boss who tends to come late when you are early and early when you are late. He may not have the hobby of throwing papers across tables and shouting like a hungry gorilla. In short, he may not be a typical bossy boss. Yet, you may find him irritating!

But alas! Relatives and bosses are two things we can rarely choose (unless we decide to choose our life partner and jobs considering this factor!)

If you want to move up the corporate ladder and beat the heavy competition around you, you need to get noticed at your office!
