Encouragement
Encouragement is such a simple act. It could be verbal, or just a pat on a shoulder. I can be when you do a good job, or when you feel real down. It could come as an act after you feel so down and just this act of encouragement can make you feel way much better.
I made a blunder at work involving the management. At one hand I got a scolding mail from skinny. It’s not fully my fault, the printer people are really the one who made the mistake, but I must admit that I was careless for not checking. No argument here. But I believe that after getting “affect”, we got to do so “effect” (wonderful theory of huling) so I called up and make some arrangement, luckily this mistake is reversible. So I called Seafood, wanting to make some arrangement. I told him of the blunder and guess what he told me? What our wonderful caring we –take- care- of- our- staff seafood told me straight in my face?
"I dun care- it’s your problem. Not mine”
Wow great. So now its ALL my fault. I am not asking for him to praise me. But the least you can do is to not say such thing because it is not going to help. At least I have solved the problem. I came to you telling you the solution, not asking you FOR the solution. What a wonderful staff protecting management.
I can’t help but wonder that if one day the organization made some financial blunder (like NKF) , are they going to tell the accountant the same thing?
“I dun care- it’s your problem. Not mine”
When someone make a mistake, it’s a good chance for them to learn. I am not asking them to forget about the mistake, but at least not say such nonsense and push all the blame to the person. I can always argue back that they are the one who approved the draft! What do you mean when you said “it’s your problem. Not mine” Dun we all work for the same organization? My work comes under your work too! So what, when it comes to problems, its mine and when it comes to credit its…?
The least you can do is to tell me to be careful, and I will, I will really take note of such things next time. Now? Forget it, Now that I learn that these things are MY problem, no point that I put in so much effort knowing that they will not support me when I fall.
I showed my colleagues the mail. Encouragement is what I got. Really, I felt SOO Sooo sooo much better. The encouragement from rag was unforgettable. He said” Let this be a motivation for you for your interview.” Things instantly seem better. Wati also share with me her bad experience with Mgt that makes me feel not so alone after all. Watching a video with them makes me laugh and calmer. Things dun look so bad after all.
Now so why can’t the mgt be more like that?
Al least here, I know that when mistakes are made, lessons are learned. I am not that afraid to make these mistakes here, at least I know that if I really do, I dun get “I dun care- it’s your problem. Not mine” straight in my face.
Thanks colleagues. You guys are the nicest batch i ever worked with.
Thanks mgt. Lesson learnt.
