office, doing the same kind OF
work.
Both Of you had decided to work
hard and reach the top.
Everything went along fine un-
I'll your friend was promoted.
Did you congratulate him and
tell him you were proud Of his
achievement

Gus you were. You said. "the boss
u Jealous Of me. He knows I can
do his work better than he can.
lie wouldn't promote me for fear
ia soon have his job. I'm looking
for something better than your
lousy little promotion. / intend
to show your straw boss he isn't
30 much" You talk on and on.
Your friend u hurt. but he has
known from your first words that
you are jealous OF his promotion
Why do you hurt yourself by
saying you don't care, when the
fact you do care stands out so
plain TO everyone but you BY
your conduct, you have lost
great deal Of respect your CO.
workers had for you and your abii-
ity.
There Is no room In the business
world for any one who thinks he Is
being held back because his super

on ways trying to get by" with a.
little effort az possible.
