奸人與惡人

i once told an ex colleague that i'd rather work under a 奸人 than an 惡人.

i had reasoned that a 奸人 will probably keep himself out of troubles and you wld probably get the best rate of survival under such a person. if you had the misfortune of working for an 惡人 then you will be gorenged very often. but later on, i changed my mind, cos a 奸人 would also most likely to have you silenced and fed to the vultures and not all 惡人 sought to put you away for good even after they gorenged you.
