office politics

well...the office politics have been threatening to boil over and it really is. the power struggle between the 2 sides have had casualties on both sides. As for me, i'm just the pawn who wants nothing to do with the power struggle up top. I'd rather just do my work and have no stress about all these things, but unfortunately living in ignorance is just impossible. People use you for their own plans and you tend to get caught between. The best thing for me to do is just feign ignorance and play the dumb guy...heheheh.
