The most most most annoying thing for me in the workplace is when someone says "politics" god I want to explode. we are a business, We should do what makes sense for the business not what some random MBA feels will pad his resume. So infuriating.
so you don't like celebrating the legacy of the heritage of the diversity of the equanimity? HR meeting is at 12, don't be late.
Human interaction is all politics to varying degrees.
Unless you are an extreme outlier someone at some point will need to interact with someone outside of the business to get the things the business needs.
Unless you are a dictatorship of a business, coming to a consensus on what the business needs is going to require dealing with people.
I agree that politics for personal gain or CV juice is bullshit though.
Being competent should be enough, unfortunately that's not generally how it works, which is also bullshit.
