Hazards of Bank Sales Part 2

There is another type of hazard. When you become a Manager, be it a Team Manager, Branch Manager or General Manager, actually this applies not only in bank sales, but almost everywhere else (every industry), members of the opposite sex will want to get close to you.
As you have the position and power to decide on things and even decide on who can stay on the job and who has to leave, people (most of the time, the opposite sex) will try to get close to you in order to receive favours in return.
Say you are a male manager, some of the more cunning bank sales girls (be it PFCs, RMs etc) will want to get close to you, how close? It depends on how close the manager wants the relationship to be? He calls the shots as he is the boss. These cunning girls will want to be close to you and they can work less, stay on the job, even get a promotion, and be on the receiving end of double standard treatment (of course their's would be the positive side of the double standards).
An example would be say the sales team does badly this quarter and the Team Manager wants all team members to stay back late to work or to go back to work on weekends. If this girl is doing ok with her sales, say she is half way to her sales target, then the Team Manager will announce to everyone that anyone who is less than halfway to his/her sales target will have to work late/weekends, so she gets to leave early and do not have to work weekends. If she is not doing well in the next quarter, then the rule will be for whoever who did not achieve his/her sales target the previous month, who will have to work more etc etc.
In a nutshell, the rules at the workplace will always be adjusted in such a way that suit her.
Bad, isn't it? Guys and Girls, please do not ever even think of doing such a thing, if you get entangled in such a mess, chances are, you will get special privileges at first, but as time goes by, you will realise that it is a vicious cycle that never ends.
The best way to work is to be sincere, honest, and don't depend on all these stupid connections, but rather on pure sincere hard work.
