The superior person is easy to work for and difficult to please. If you try to please him in any devious way, he will not be pleased. And in his employment of people, he uses them according to their capacity. The lesser person is difficult to work for, yet is easy to please. If you try to please him even in a devious way, he may be pleased. And in his employment of people, he expects them to be fit for everything.
