Today is another slow day for me. A heatup in work has caused me to loose my cool head. Although the incident happened yesterday, I still find it hard to let go. Before I can pack up the little stones, I am tasked with a new and clueless research report. I could have clarified the required information with my superior, but I decided not to send the email. Perhaps, I can guess what response he would give. More words will cause more misunderstanding when tension is tight. I decided to let time reveals things little by little to me. Sometimes my anxiousness to get the required information has soured the relationship with colleagues.
I started this blog some time ago. But I do not know what to write. Fashion, food, travel etc these are too commonly blogged, and I am not a trend watcher. So I begin with simple thing.
I refer to the blog by SuperMama, and I like the quote "Here today, gone tomorrow". It can be applied to many scenarios, be it a place, a person or an incident. It can be applied to work place too. I used to think that top management people cannot be easily replaced, and they would be there for a long time. The management of my previous workplace was not well liked. After being retrenched immediately on the spot by my boss, he experienced the same by his boss a year later. And his boss has too been fired and replaced two years later. Once a big European MNC, now only left with skeleton. Management people can be nice to look upon, with frequent business traveling, nice accomodation and sumptous meals. But they can be easily replaced if they do not have solid skill and knowledge to lead.
I tell myself that the Directors that I am unhappy with will one day be gone too. Either they or I will leave the company one day. It is a matter of time. So why should I be so mad over business issue, that too will be forgotten some day. Learn to let go of resentment is a skill that I have not mastered till today.
