this entry is full of F-word. read at your own pace.
week 19-25 October is a week full of shit and fucked up events.
and also full of wonderful surprises.
and a really nice one.
:)
lets see, the highlights of the fucked up events.
hurmm...
i misplaced an employment package for this candidate, and after a week of thinking its already in the GM's office, pending approval, it's actually in my tray (of course, underneath piles of other documents).
so, the SM of the receiving party called me, and upon learning the truth, said she just don't know what to say. of course, she's bloody mad. then she told me is this how we are going to potray ourself to the external candidates, when we promised them that the letter would be available for collection in 2 weeks time?
well, i know i'm guilty, and realising that, there's nothing to do but to acknowledge that i'm all guilty as charged. and will do my best to speed up the application process.
and on that day, secretly admiring the SM for not doing the typical Management-Thing: send emails to your superiors telling them how disappointed they are.
and i secretly thanking her (that SM is a lady), for not doing that.
imagine my horror, upon checking my email early in the next morning, and that E-Mail is there.
fuck.
so, rather than preparing the offer letter with feeling of grateful, up till this moment, i am full with hatred for this lady. please, let her be my future boss, so i could disappoint her further. by all means, should fate decided that i am to work for her, let it be. i'll be ready for that day.
remember when you think you're bringing me down, bitch? guess you did not manage to do it so.
well, to keep the story short, this tuesday i am gonna meet up with my bosses, to be penalised for what is happening. hey, i admit it's a stupid mistake. and i will not make any excuses.
except,
the SM asked me, is this how we are to potray the Company? slow process and everything?
but upon receiving phone call from the candidate herself, she told me that the SM told her that the HR is so slow (and things like that) blah blah blah.. talk about cohesiveness. talk about we are one. talk about potraying good image.
how is it our fault when you yourself bad-mouthed the organisation?
and you said that it is entirely our fault?
have anyone informed you, that only MY department could officially communicate with candidates on any employment offer? or you think you could be seen as "be proactive" in dealing with your soon-to-be-recruited candidate?
fuck you.
rather than trying to perform damage-control i.e giving good reasons to candidate, you decided to tell them "HR is slow yadda yadda yadda". now, tell me:
who promised them that the letter would be ready in 2 weeks time?
who gave them the not-so-good impression on the Company?
who thought that they have the Authority in contacting the candidate directly?
again, fuck you.
i lost my respect to you, when you click on that "send" button to my GM, my SM, and my manager, and oh, to your GM as well.
fuck you.
come to think of it, you are from department that does planning strategically. but the thing is, earlier this year, there is no indication of vacancies in your department. and now you are telling me that you need lots of people? is this part of your strategic plan?
fuck you as i am better off serving units that clearly indicates how many vacancies that need to be filled up.
again, this shit is happening mainly because it is my mistake. i admit it. i made a blunder.
but since ko raised other issues yg totally unrelated (how i actively participate in interview sessions, blah blah blah, yadda yadda yadda), i'd love to bring up unrelated issues as well.
the difference is, you wrote that fucking email to GMs and SMs (and i'll be getting some from my SM this Tuesday); and i wrote this fucking entry, for those who care to read.
and for the love of God,
i shall move on.
p/s: there goes my Mid Year Review. looks like i'm 4.
