People will stop at nothing to climb the corporate ladder and achieve success in the competitive field of business. Having said that, how would you react if an individual in a position of power attempted to coerce you into following their instructions? Would you let your fear overcome you, or would you outsmart their sly tactics and advance toward your goal?

The story below is an account of a hard-working individual. The Original Poster (OP) has spent a considerable amount of time employed by the same company.
