How has MRP changed your work life?

if trp is not improving other areas of you life, you are doing it wrong. The whole point of trp is to improve yourself in ALL areas, not just in the bedroom.

I no longer care if my input is not acted on. Before, I might bitch or grumble but now I move on. Now people are acting on my ideas more (Outcome Independence)
I wanted to make more money. Instead of complaining about my bills to "justify" my raise, I took on a project and then showed how it saved money. (Taking initiative)
I no longer do things because I am afraid of losing my job. If my employer does not see the value I bring, I will find another job (Abundance mentality)
People are reacting to my new body. The crabs are bringing me donuts, cakes, and fried garbage. Others are looking and making comments (Lifting)
I corrected my boss on an very important detail and then covered for him in front of others. (Law 1 - Never outshine the master)
I am no longer emotionally invested in mass media "news" bullshit like confederate flag, cecil the lion, trump, octomom. No more arguing with coworkers or trying to explain my position so they will change their minds. Just broad, general statements such as "thats crazy", "thats weird" to participate at the most basic level. (Law 38 - Think as you like, but behave like others & Law 20 - Do Not Commit to Anyone)
I'm saying "no" to more things. I'm producing better work and people seem to be more respectful of my time (wisnifg)

I know a guy who started using PUA principles to make sales. He's now unstoppable.

I've learned three big things:

Never have a woman as a boss.
Never work in an office full of mostly women.
Never ever combine one and two.

I'm no longer so shy in work situations as I used to be. I used to think I had no clout at work and could only go with the flow but I realized that part of that was that I didn't assert myself enough to get more clout. It doesn't succeed as often as I'd like but at least the act of assertion builds my confidence. I also don't lose my shit anymore. Used to be when faced with too much work, I'd spaz out. This would put everyone else on edge too. I don't do that anymore. Partly this is because I don't really give a shit about the events at work. I don't take it as a personal affront so it doesn't matter to me. I have found since swallowing the pill that I respect the opinions of fewer people as they don't impress me much with their false egotistical posturing. Consequently, other people's action matter less to me. I've also learned to separate work from home life. If people ask me how my home life is, I give vague positive answers like "ok". I know better than to believe anyone really cares about my shit. If they do, they'll make it known.

Right now I'm at a point of not giving a fuck about much of anything. I'm going through the motions of lifting, extinguishing shit tests, and reading sidebar material, but I feel like I don't give a damn about the outcome. It's beyond hopeless. It's just void.

just got a promotion- key is - IDGAF , pushing whats right for the client and the business ( i am not IN business btw) so I have three women above me who have seen a pack leader manage up. that was TRP allowing me to finally not be a "nice guy" and not feel guilty either. just maximizing my actual skills

How I've moved up and broken a lot of the stereotype millennial generation peterpan syndrome bullshit [I am 30 and manage men and women in a professional setting]: 1) Everyday is professional. Even on casual Fridays, I wear a tie. Get nice well fitting suits. I don't wear $3000 stuff, but nicely put together. I make 75k a year, this warrants Men's Warehouse at this time in my life. I get daily compliments from the women on staff. All of my staff are older than I am. 2) Look the part, talk the part and ACT the part. 3) Control what you can control and focus on that. I put the right ass in the right seat, and that includes my own. UNDERPROMISE and OVER DELIVER. 4) I own my mistakes as a manager and propose solutions to them in the future. Say it "I made a mistake with this; it won't happen again." 5) DRAFT - NEVER. You were on your best behavior for your boss when they hired you, why are you comfortable (beta) to turn in shit now? 6) Make decisions quickly, and firmly. This includes, "I don't know right now or let me get some more information and get back with you." There is nothing wrong with this. People see through bullshit quickly and they will catch you. 7) Don't talk too much. Shut the fuck up at work and deliver, don't move your fucking mouth unless you have something significant to say. I peg people, especially men who talk too much. It's a clear indicator of insecurity. 8) That old man in the corner who doesn't give two fucks about what anyone thinks yet delivers? Befriend him. Get to know his contacts, they will pass their institutional knowledge onto deserving up and comers.

I was already pretty much the "alpha" at my work.

After starting on The Red Pill path it's almost comical how incompetent and spineless my "leaders" are in comparison. There is an unspoken attitude now that if I quit, the company is done and everyone will lose their jobs. Since REALLY focusing on leadership in my marriage I have turned a situation where I was respected into a situation where I am viewed as almost a savior.

And I have made the fact that I need the job less than the job needs me pretty crystal clear. This has not translated to more dollars just yet (because there are none) but no one fucks with me and I have ZERO anxiety about my job….which honestly is worth more to me than money.

With other men the results are very positive. Ive moved up in the ranks of guy world.

With women, not so much. I used very light pua with a 55 year old girl by a&a some of her jokes but nothing sexual. She filed an hr complaint against me. It was dropped because she could not name the specific reason why it was harassment just made her uncomfortable. Guess the older women have no tolerance for betas that try to go alpha.

Nothing yet, but I took the pill just as I put in me release from the navy.

Though has helped overcome the 'you'll never have or as good as here' scare tactic everyone uses.

Now I treat it like the happy wife that I'm divorcing. Literally lawyered up (first post shows why) sorted out finances, flirting with other companies.

Ask me again in Dec

You've heard of the good-old-boy dominated work environments? I work in a grand knitting hen house dominated work environment. They meet all day to display their value instead of accomplishing anything; it's better to talk about it endlessly.

For what I do in this place: I play the good helpful boy and watch the shitshow... from a great distance if I can manage it. I keep my mouth shut about sex, religion, politics and consequently rp or pua would probably get me a note from hr like /u/bogeyd6 .
