That way you're keeping it light, but you're still getting some social capital.
Exactly.
Another way to play the office politics game is to remember people's birthdays and to remember their kids and their pets' names and genuinely be interested in them and ask about them.
ask about their kids, their pets, and their personal goals, people are really going to like you.

If you want to get a raise or to get paid more, you need to learn to qualify the impact that you're having on the company.
So that might be, I closed this many deals this year and therefore I should get a 20% raise.
So you can make the company money, that's I closed this many deals.
You could also save the company money.
You know, our time to hire used to be six months.
It would take six months to fill a role.
With my new process, it only takes one month to fill that role.

We are saving five months of recruiting dollars.
Therefore, I saved the company, you know, $300,000.
It makes so much sense for me to get a $10,000 raise.
So you need to figure out either how you make the company money or save the company money.
If you can't figure out either of those, you probably shouldn't have a job.
You probably shouldn't work there.
The company has you there because you either save the money or make the money.
