What is the connotation of Diorgenes vats? 20

Diogenes' Cask: One should strive to include itself in the privileged class.

In the workplace, you can't demand absolute fairness, and you can't demand that anyone have unique rights that don't belong to you. Some people are able to do that because they have contributions that deserve to be done. And if you feel unfair, what you should do is try to put yourself in the privileged class.

Philosophy enables us to lie down on the earth in peace and bask in the sun, enjoying the freedom of body and mind, and to say to everything that prevents us from doing so, "Don't block my sun!" ”。

Don't block my sunshine" can also add another meaning: don't let politics get in the way of philosophy, don't let group interests get in the way of freedom of thought.

Just remember one sentence and never forget Diogenes, Alexander said: If I were not Alexander, I wish I were Diogenes.

Barrels of Diogenes.

Collini, Google's communications manager. Dalí is a celebrity at Google, even more so than the president. He has a separate office, in the northeast corner of the large office of the Propaganda Department, with transparent glass curtain walls on three sides and blue shutters.

Because of those blinds, Dalí's secret was not discovered until the secretary inadvertently broke in. It turned out that Dalí used to take off his shirt when he pulled the blinds to work.

At first, everyone thought that this was Dalí's "active" harassment of the secretary, but it was soon discovered that Dalí liked to go shirtless all year round, in spring, summer, autumn and winter, whenever he entered the office and closed the curtains.

The president talked to him about it, but the matter was settled, and according to the legend in the company, Dali told the president that he had to do this without getting in the way of others, because it would make him more inspired.

As a result, Google began to "mess up" within the company. Someone at work time, **deafening heavy metal**. In order to be comfortable, some female employees began to wear loose pajamas to work. The entire Google company, which was already loose, was messed up in a mess.

In order to restore normal office order and not let the internal atmosphere of the company be destroyed, the company began to warn some excessive employees, which made everyone restrain themselves.

However, the company did not have a system to restrict Dali's bare back.

Tens of thousands of employee opinion letters were sent to the president's mailbox by email. The emails were unfair to Dali for not being warned and terminated.

A few days later, Google employees received a letter from the president's office telling the story of Diogenes, an ancient Greek philosopher.

Diogenes had a quirk, that is, he was used to living in a barrel, he did not have his own room, he did not have a home. Some provocateurs said: "Diogenes, what will happen to you if we break your barrel?"

Diogenes said, "It's nothing, the barrel will break when it breaks, and someone will always give me the barrel again, because I'm Diogenes!" ”

The matter of Dali, the bareback manager, was never mentioned by Google employees again. This story from the president running the company clearly tells them a truth--- in the workplace, you can't ask for absolute justice.

Diogenes (δ 0 5 0 9), an ancient Greek philosopher, a representative of the Cynic school. Active circa 4th century BC, born Sinop (0 4, now part of Turkey) and died in Corinth. The true life of him is difficult to verify, but there are many anecdotes about him left in ancient documents.

It is said that Diogenes lived in a wooden barrel and all the possessions he owned included this barrel, a cloak, a stick, and a loaf bag. Once Diogenes was basking in the sun, when Alexander the Great came to visit him, asked him what he needed, and promised to grant his wish. Diogenes replied:

I want you to flash to the side and not block my sun. Alexander the Great later said, "If I were not Alexander, I would be Diogenes." ”

Diogenes lived in the barrel, and the barrel was his world. He is the master of his world, and Alexander wants to be the master of the real world.

Because Diogenes was a representative of the Cynic school, he longed for a free life without constraints. And such a life was also what Alexander longed for.

Archimedes and Diogenes reasoned. The perspectives of the two examples have their own emphasis, one is when life will be taken away by others, and the other is when a prominent person wants to help, so that the content of the soul of the sage is richly displayed. The concise discussion reveals the truth of the examples cited by Kai Jing's judgment:

In the face of these great men with a rich inner world, whether it is the butcher's knife that took life, or the supreme Alexander the Great, they are so insignificant and disdainful; In the eyes of these great men with noble souls, everything outside the body and body is so worthless.
