Didn't you think it would go well without me?

When you watch the drama 'Mr. Kim', there's a scene like this. The protagonist had to leave the company due to pressure from the company, but afterwards, he uses his severance pay to open a wonderful franchise cafe.

From Mr. Baek, who fired him, to the annoying Director Do Jin-woo, his sales team members, and his brother-in-law's couple come to visit. Mr. Baek praises Mr. Kim and orders around Director Do, who had pushed him out. He imagines himself being better than others as the representative. Now, the tables have completely turned.

But he gets scammed by investing in a building, with the thought of doing well to those who fired him.

We've all probably had these kinds of fantasies while working. I've had these fantasies a lot, and I still do.

I introduced our service to potential customers with great effort and continuously followed up to resolve their questions, but they sign a project contract with another company. Afterward, they proceed with another company and eventually find our company again due to quality issues. Thrilling.

Other employees' sales performance keeps exploding. Because of that, I start to be cautious and subtly get compared. Then, I explode a huge contract with a big customer. It generates the company's annual revenue. All employees and executives seek me out and tell me I worked hard. Thrilling.

Looking at my profile, everyone wants to take me. The logos of those companies are places everyone knows, where the stock price is soaring upwards, and the offers of doubling or tripling my salary. Thrilling.

I post on LinkedIn. Likes come in hundreds for every post I make. I get inquiries about services after reading the posts. Contracts are signed. Requests for lectures come from everywhere. I become a famous influencer. Thrilling.

Hoping that this thrill won't come today, or even if it doesn't, I run through today with humility and gratitude.
