Leave Me Alone!



I do not understand why my statements are always taken in the wrong context. I do not understand why these people (same people) seem to think that I am a deterrent to their dreams of becoming Area Managers one day. Am I such a threat? Is it wrong to comment on a wrong report especially if the mistake points directly to my circle of influence? Is it wrong to push back when you think that the email being circulated is wrong? Do I walk and talk with a subtitle written on my forehead or the clothes that I wear?


Oh c'mon people. Why do you seem so insecure? Why do you always question what I have to do? Can't we just work and work accurately without letting other people suffer from your mistakes? Can't we just work in the light of fair reporting? Can't we work without putting too much ego out in the open? Is it so hard to admit that you sent a wrong information? Do we know that there is a big difference between 6:30AM and 7:00AM?


Hear me out! You know who you are.


I sent you the reply without any undertones. I sent the reply because I wanted you to send an accurate report without jeopardizing what exactly happened. Yes, we went past our meeting schedule but this is the only time that this happened. What's your problem with that? I am not a threat. I am not a deterrent to your dreams. I am not an obstacle that you need to remove out of your way. I do not gossip, I do not support office politics. So what if I am not friends with you? You can't expect me to be friends with people who stab your back. I hate to say this but you just used up the last straw of respect and admiration that I have for you. And definitely, this issue will be escalated to my manager. I will not stay mum and quiet and let you bully me. I am not here to steal the limelight from you. Let me just work. Let me work on my own. And don't dare malign me with your false pretenses. I have never talked against your back. I hate to say this but if it were not for me, would you have known that Dell was opening up a site here in the Philippines? Would you have applied in time to be part of the first batch?


And yeah, next time we cross paths, don't flash me with that plastic smile of yours. You know that you can't forever be on top. But don't drag me with you. Please? For crying out loud, give me my space and for the record I'm so through with you and your minions. You couldn't make me cry anymore. But don't worry, I won't wage war against you. It's not just me. If you can talk behind my back and think ill of me. Stop politics and work your ass out. Be mature enough and act like your age.


Today, I regret that you were ever considered a friend. I wish you could have reacted better. Stop bullying me!
