Hello Alex. I think your advice is professional and helpful. And I have never worked in a foreig ...
& @- v9 S. S8 X% {3 z& l* s8 }, XOffice politics is ubiquitous, it's just a matter of extent. Grown-ass adults can put up with benign politics in most companies. But every now and then a calculated duchebag finds his way into a certain companies and manages to redefine shameless.
. }' _& e! R+ N, |- ^7 e5 A+ F- A+ K% ^I used to work at a Japanese corporation in Beijing. My P.M and G.M were both Chinese. Great atmosphere here in the lab filled with Chinese engineers. Sales office next doors had a few Japanese supervisors. One floor above, the general accountant, Yoshimi(吉见), was also a Japanese. Japs obviously didn't trust us with their money. 5 q) z0 v0 R; h' ]1 y

Most Japanese colleagues were upright, hard working and treated us with respect. But Yoshimi was a real piece of work. Even other Japanese saw him like a freak. Guy probably grew up with polio, when he happened to go to he bathroom ahead of you he would walk slightly crippled and glance back over his shoulder with a vigiant stare at you, as if you were to stab him in the back. Vicious as he was, HQ liked him, 'cause he helped cut cost down by messing with everybody at work. This is as bad as office politics can be at a foreign corporation. There's nothing you could do to remove him from that position. % G) g. o, c* N+ i6 |

Same thing could happen to any company, including German ones. But engineers carry around a blessing, which is the nature of their job.
$ \/ O9 R3 D- Y! O1. There're a lot less female engineers. I don't mean to spread sexual prejudice, but politics tend to flurish in feminine officies. 9 l' w: f' V# \2 d% \
2. Even for female egineers, they would be technical-oriented and are good with logical thinking.

Back in that company I worked at, our lab was the best space for one to be on the whole level. We could crack jokes with one another and share interesting findings, make wild guesses or simply shut up and work. The accountant, cashier, our big-boobed receptionist and sometimes our G.M all loved to hump in every once in a while an laugh with us. My advice to office politics is fairly simple: focus on your own work. If it gets in your way too much, leave. 5 J# {7 N: n0 ^% `0 f7 b$ K
