I did an appraisal with a staff who has pretty much issues on attitude. And I did not know it could drag on for a wonderful 1 hour, 45 mins. I amaze myself with the amount of words I could verbalise and I have to admit, I have deliberated the issues to him in precise details that I dare bet my car to it that the message was swimming pool water clear.
For a good 11 years of working, for once, I am glad I was put to manage a hoard of people back in my Collection days. It does wonders to my people skills to some extend though I am not professing that I am all perfect now.
I still need filing every now and then but I am glad to some extend that people like that bitch Josephine has thrown me into tough handling people situations that makes this appraisal seemed like a peanut in a peanut butter bottle!
All I need is a good understanding of the person I am about to handle. With that, I am assured I could definitely get messages across, no matter how thick the skull is, diplomatically, er, to some extend.
But say however I want, deep down, I don't fancy this part about working. I honestly don't enjoy 'governing' people. Yeah, I'm even not using the word 'managing' because I totally feel when we work in organizations with a huge manpower, it is no longer managing. It becomes governing...
I honestly still have the passion to work on my own and be managed. It's far easier and simple. Of course, less stress. To many extend, the weight is off the shoulder about the performance of your staff, their career advancement and work satisfaction. And many of times, it is about your own attitude as well.
So at the end of the day, sometimes, it amazes me how much some people would actually die to have people to manage. Maybe it is nice to tell other people there is so much and so much of people working under them. Maybe it's sort of an ego cooker thingy which makes one feel superior.
Honestly, it's pure BS. And most of the time, these are the BS-ters who makes the worst bosses. Because all they care about is how many staffs are under him/her. There is nothing else such imbecile would care.
And they think being a Boss is easy.
Anyway, enough about this. It took away lots of my time already just now, and now, it has taken some blog space too. Haha...
I just want to say, while it is the people that makes the world go around, but it is also the people that makes the mess out of everything. So, by end of the day, governing people is one of the hardest thing to do successfully. I don't think any guru has found the secret of it yet. So long we human remain 'macam-maccam', they will never...
