1. Nobody is your friend, not even the guys you eat lunch with every day
2. Nobody is indispensable. Anybody can be laid off any day.
3. Never waste time listening to management podcasts, attending town-halls or post work self-funded drink parties as they don’t have any impact on your salary, promotion or job security.
4. Try to attend as much technical training as you can which are paid for by your employer.
5. Never send emails late night or over the weekends thinking that people will get impressed. There are already people in your team who have seen it and done it all and only fools work overtime.
6. Become awesome at the work you do. Focus on learning the latest skills applicable to your field. That will save your life when you are laid off or want to change employer.
7. Don’t waste time on feedbacks or year-end assessments and don’t take them seriously. No matter how hard you work or the value you add, you will always be made to feel below average.
8. Fight hard to get a raise by constantly raising your compensation issue with senior managers in private meetings. No company wants to pay more and one needs to snatch his share of goodies.
9. Never share your family or any other problem/weakness with anybody at work.
10. Make a genuine effort to help others who need some help from you specific to your knowledge or skill. The cycle of Karma will enable you to get the same help when you need the same.
11. Never use capital case or offensive words in any written communication that can be used as an evidence of your unprofessional behavior and be used against you.

I find time for my blog family on weekend to write something useful.
