Teamwork

"Think about it, if people can do this to him, you will go through the same thing as he does, soon enough when you handle your own projects." As far as I could recall, my boss said something like this when she tried to pursuade us - the two juniors - in a sound and comforting way so thatwe wouldn't take it the wrong way for lending a hand to the team for an OT mission on non-working-Saturday.

The story behind was simple: some team members have done something that is not right to the job which is already in a worsening situation, and to help a team leader who is seriously in need of assistance is the goal of ours.

Despite so much my reluctance to back to work on Saturday, I couldn't agree more on what my boss has analysed to us. See, I wasn't the one who made the mistakes but I tried my bestest to sort the shit out. What's more I'm not the leader of that project. 

But, I am part of the team. 

Not in my position to judge how others have and have not taken on their responsibilities in the team, but seems like for the past few weeks all efforts of everyone are not tying up together to achieve the product of the team. Of course including myself, I would acknowledge. 

And I believe in karma. If I don't work as a team member, someday no one would treat my own team as a "team". What goes around, comes around. 

The secretaries

Start work today. Hopeful, motivated morning was ruined by the rants of the knows-it-all secretary shooting out on me. See, I am not paid to deal with all shits which I steadfast they're the faults of mine, or nothing to be complained about. And in fact, the way she tries to find every single possibility to say something loud and embarrass you is not pleasant at all. Though I am so done with her "words of wisdom" this morning, I comforted myself and thought that : hey, she is the best person to learn from. Who's in a better position to be the one we learn from to deal with the person whom you do not like/ disagree with? That person. Good time to sharpen my EQ. But I wonder are secretaries paid to be fussy at workplace?
