郑游

郑游 is a figure from 《大厂小民》 discussed by 小满 in 《大厂小民》:我们必须克制对系统与上岸的期待. He starts as an outsourced worker, actively learns how to manage supervisor expectations, asks how to get good performance, arrives early, takes on tasks from full-time employees, and eventually passes the process to become a formal employee.

His story is not treated as simple meritocracy. The episode uses his relief after gaining full internal access to show how workplace inequality can be built into cards, apps, internal networks, facilities, information, and status. ZhengYou therefore extends Workplace Hidden Rules, Big Company Halo, and System Humanity by showing how an ordinary worker can both suffer from and skillfully navigate institutional gates.

Connections

  • 《大厂小民》 — book context where he appears.
  • 小满 — author who discusses his case.
  • Workplace Hidden Rules — expectation management, internal access, and performance signaling.
  • System Humanity — his path depends on both formal process and people willing to recognize effort.
  • Career Shore Myth — formalization opens opportunity but does not make the large company a permanent shore.
