A Tribute to "Disrespect"

I have a lot to say today because I just feel like blaring it all out like a loud speaker. Just in that kind of mood.

Just as I have said about Eugene being piss. Well, as today is day 1 from the scratch, I have resolute that I will not be affected by how Eugene feels or think about this whole think, ever again. Not that I don't care about him but there is a limit to this rubbish of getting overly upset over 4 set of car rims. The life we live is definitely larger than this rim issue and there is no need to be overwhelming emotionally charged up. After all, shit do happen.

And sometimes, I wish Eugene will learn to realized that it is MY car and I DO FEEL upset over my carelessness. I don't need someone to tell me off my face about the thing and start telling me what I can do or not do with my life, when I want to go park my car at which place or a snub that I go fix that bloody rims myself, just because those damn rims got scratch! Give me a break.

And, being angry with a person does not give anyone the right to say whatever they think and feel like saying to the face at that point of time. If anyone can say whatever they feel like saying, I have a LONNNG series of things in rebut to the entire whole situation in return. I would retaliate and create a huge fucking havoc out of just these few stupid rims. But, I just KEPT QUIET. Because it is just not so worth getting all charged up, being piss with someone and being UNHAPPY about it for the whole day.

Get charge up for bigger and meaningful reasons please. I don't think anyone should be smaller than this for Heaven's sake. And yes, I am piss about this because how can anyone be telling me off my face as if I did it in purpose? Yes, I know the trouble one needs to get through fixing it but does that warrant such outburst?

Being angry does NOT mean you have the right to disrespect people just because someone was careless.

I can't believe this. And that is the reason I am piss. Anyway, he was not nagging as he puts it, he was telling me off. Differentiate that please!!!

Anyway... I can stay as long numb as I can if Eugene continues the crap because I do not tolerate people who can't give me some basic respect just because I was careless. Period.

Talking about disrespect.

I used to know this person by the name of Josephine. Josephine Petola to be exact is her name {she has this resemblance of a bitter gout}. Yeah. Kill me and sue me for what I have got to say. But I honestly don't care. She is the mother of disrespect. She has this level of disrespect for anyone including God.

She is one person who can call me while Eugene was in the hospital just coming out from the operation theater and in a tonation of piss because of something she THOUGHT I did not do. She has the fucking cheek to call me up when I desperately needed time off to be with my family. She also has the cheek to tell me I do not have the right to call her a bitch. Joke of the century. Well, despite the many years this has happen, I still think you are a fucking bitch. The only competition you have is the person who kicked you out of Citi. I am so not worthy.

She is also the one person who will call me at 11pm in the middle of the night just because she thought of something about work and she thinks and believe I should be entertaining her unimportant and not urgently-at-all thoughts.

She is also the person who can tell me how bad a person is on my face but when she meets the person in person, she doesn't have a single ball to show it. {Sandy, if you are reading this, she is not your best friend stupid, she's just trying to be nice so she can get her things done, most of the time behind you, she just gloat and roll her eyes on you. And you stupidly think she like you. Haha...}

She is one person who always, always complaint about her salary and how lowly paid she is and will always ensure despite it all, if I get an adjustment, she must too because to her, I can never earn more than her {on that note Josephine, remember you are 10 years older than me and I am probably earning 3/4 of what you are earning now, so imagine by the time I reach 44...}

She is one person who always complaints her boss never pays her enough and is always expecting her to shoulder his shit. But she never, ever dare complain these rubbish in front of him.

She is one person who made everyone stay back till wee hours of the morning on the very last day of submission for some checking because she thinks that will do justice to the department and her BIG FAT SALARY.

She is one person who will just dilly dally her hours between 9am-6pm and only start work after 6pm, only to finish everything by 9pm-11pm AND she will be THE ONE who will e-mail to the boss to inform / update him about things 1 minute before she leaves that room of hers. She does it every single time she works pass 9pm. EVERY TIME. And yes, she made sure she cc everyone so people would know how hard she worked.

She is the one person who thinks no one knows what she does during her dilly dally time during office hours. Like bitching. Like finding out who is earning what. Like going for 3 hour lunches. Like going for 2 hours dinner along with a stroll in KLCC Suria before heading back to the office to really work. Like screwing people for some minuscule number someone missed hitting. Yeah. And she thinks she ought to be paid loads for doing that? Boy!

She is one person who will ask me to do the dirty job of firing people and I get screw because I don't see the reason if I can't get it done. And now that she no longer works with us, she pretends she is BEST friends with these people {she asked to fire}. Yeah, I know, she always believe, work and personal is 2 different thing. Well, going on the same philosophy, I was nice to you then because you were my boss so I had to respect that chair, at least. On a personal front however, you are absolutely a crap shit to me. No hard feelings, it is only work.

She is one person who will call a person back to the office at 9pm just because something is not correctly done. The problem with her is, just because she works after 6pm and she only gets to check her work after that, she expects all her staff to stay with her till that hour. So, this goes to say that just because she does not have a life it does not mean, she has to disrespect people's life.

She is one person who has built a small army of cronies for herself. Chris the Dork, used-to-be Vincent, Sara the big tits and wannabe, Maggie the SOL, Patrick the whim who would follow her everywhere she goes and everything she does. And mind you, they get the best of everything. As petty as using the company laptop as is it is theirs. Oh, some people can just get so small and hard-up over such trivial things. And as they have the world in their so-called hands, the tyrant in her will start demanding for pay spike every 6 months because someone in her army of cronies is threatening to leave.

She is one person who will shed crocodile tears for the army of cronies when they want to leave the bank in pursuit of a better salaried job claiming she will not ever be able to work without her armies. She badly needs them and beg for salary raise. And in turn, she knows if her staffs' salary gets adjusted, she will do eventually as there is no way the boss earns lesser or almost at the same par as her.

She is one person who was totally devastated when she realized when we all had the adjustment {and because it is to be fairness to all, the non-cronies like me got to benefit the adjustment} she lamented that the boss was not being fair to her because she had nothing!!!! Beat that!!!!

She is also one person who believes she is the boss and she won't get to the nitty gritty of things. She will say hell things to her staff because they are behind schedule and she will not lay a fingers on it to help because she says we are all paid to do a job and not giving her problems. Apparently, she said we are all paid to resolve issue and manage situations, not giving her problems instead.

She is one person who needs affirmation from HER OWN staff that she is good. IF she ever take over a job badly done, at the end of it all, she will make the staff say she is really good. Or she is smart after all. I mean this, literally. Beat that.

She is one person who will just take a pen and strike off the entire pages of your memo which you have taken the whole day to write with scribbles the many things which she wants to put it in and she writes all over the memo. She does not even take the time to run through the memo with you and tell you where you go wrong, she does the writing as and when she starts her work after 6pm and returns it via the out-tray.

She is one person who never has the time for you, unless is it nothing about work or there is an urgent need to revert by some more powerful department than hers.

She is one person who will ask you to do the work first and submit to her for 'approval' apparently. But in later years I realized it is not because I am paid to do the work, it is because she doesn't have the slightest idea how to do it!!! That then explains why she do most of the things by herself and she keeps preaching we are paid to work. And she probably thinks she is paid to just 'sign it.'

She is one person who will actually mix personal matter into work despite her attesting she does not. She has a dog named Tommy. Who helped her pay her bills, run errands for her, buy oranges for her. In return of being her dog, she actually gave him some bonus despite him being a very, very bad worker. While she asked me to fire people that she doesn't like, she never asked me to fire Tommy who is really, really a bad worker. He is just super inefficient. Ask me!

She is one person who will pretend she likes you and is thoughtful. She will depend on other people to remind her whose birthday is around the corner and she has totally no memory to remember anyone's. And when the day really comes, she will grab whatever she has in her closet which is extra and she will wrap it up later and give it to you pretending she has a thought to it.

Well... I have some more to go about this Josephine Leong but I no longer have the time to go on.

You know, when people say people will forget, it does not apply to me.

I will not forget about this entire episode about her. Not because I can't move on but as a reminder to me how to manage such people if I meet another of the same species. I also would like to be reminded that what I am today is because of her, she made me a better person. She made me realized how it is to be a good genuine person and a boss. She also reminded me that, the world is indeed round and what ever comes around does come around. Even round enough to remind me how atrociously rude with disrespect she has for me and the people around her. And because of her, she makes me appreciate how much of the goodness in other people. She reminded me all the time, that she is the benchmark of a bad person, so it is so easy to make comparison to a good and bad person. Last but not least, she has reminded me what kind of a character will be eligible to hell, as simple as that.

Thank God I won't be seeing her...
