Local HR experts have advised Singaporeans passed over for promotions to "express deep gratitude" while their less-experienced juniors park their Continental cars in the reserved lots.

Instead of filing a grievance, veteran workers are encouraged to offer to hold their new supervisor’s bubble tea and carry their gym bags to demonstrate "managerial readiness."

"Wah lau, I work here ten years, this fellow only know how to make TikTok and he become my boss?" said one bitter office drone.

A senior consultant suggested that being "passed over" is actually a strategic opportunity to master the refined art of professional humiliation.

"Don't be so salty lah, maybe his mouth more sweet than yours and he know how to carry boss ball," noted another manager.

Apparently, "operating at the next level" simply involves better LinkedIn networking and ordering the right artisan coffee for the CEO.
