Chapter 756 

But after a moment’s thought, Agnes shook her head. 

The people and situations one encounters at work are beyond control. If one quit every time they met someone who rubbed them the wrong way, or faced a challenge, wouldn’t that be a sign of weakness? 

Agnes decided that the best course of action would be to tackle each challenge head–on. 

Yolanda was pushing her to the brink, likely with the intent of forcing her to quit. 

Well, the joke’s on her. Agnes was not going to give her the satisfaction. 

Agnes began to walk around the storage, mapping out a plan in her mind. She decided to start with categorizing the bookshelves and sorting through the old newspapers. 

The task seemed daunting, but not impossible. 

If Yolanda was intent on giving her trouble, then Agnes was going to show her just how resilient she could be. 

Her first job at the television station had been sorting through old newspapers, day and night 

Agnes estimated that at her current pace, she could finish the task within a week. 

No one had asked her to work overtime, but she still stayed until nine every night. Her colleagues in the News Department noticed this, and rumors began to swirl 

One morning. Yolanda arrived to find a group of people whispering in the break room. 

As she approached, she heard them discussing her and Agnes. 

“Do you think the director has a personal grudge against Agnes? She applied to be a reporter, not to be stuck in the storage doing menial tasks.” 

“I think the director is just jealous of Agnes‘ resume. I heard she worked at CNN for four years and even won awards. She’s overqualified to be the head of the news department, let alone a reporter. I bet the director is worried Agnes might outshine her.” 

This isn’t the first time the director has tried to suppress talent. Anyone with exceptional ability is either forced out or requests a transfer. There’s no upward mobility here.” 

“Well, the director is the heiress to the Bowman family fortune and her husband is the station manager’s son. With such strong backing, she pretty much runs the station as she pleases. It’s a real shame for actual talent.” 

Yolanda burst into the room, “Anyone here feel like they’re being treated unfairly feel free to quit. You’re not as indispensable as you think.” 

The room fell silent as everyone turned to look at Yolanda. No one said a word as they picked up their mugs and left. Everyone working here had some kind of background or family wealth. They were just here to pad their resumes and didn’t need to put up with this. 

Soon, Yolanda was the only one left in the break room, and she was seething 

Agnes had only been here for a few days and she was already stirring up rumors within the department. 

Clearly, her time at CNN had only taught her how to manipulate office politics. 

Yolanda had been wondering why Agnes had been so quiet. She knew she wouldn’t be content with manual labor in the storage. 

That afternoon, Yolanda summoned Agnes, and she gave her an assignment to conduct a street survey. The task was trivial, akin to handing out leaflets Agnes was to fill out a bunch of forms by randomly interviewing people on the street. 

Agnes objected, “I am a reporter, and this kind of task is not within my job description.”
