Mind Your Manners

Thanks God I'm blessed with a rational mind, or else I would have picked up the phone and shouted loud & clear to a colleague now. He hasn't done his part of work, and yet claimed that my department is pushing the envelope on him. He could easily own up to the fact that he hasn't completed his work according to timeline set earlier, why waste time pointing fingers on others who are innocent? Really Kurang Ajar!

Same here. Someone tried to lecture me with the way I lead my life.

I do not broadcast my service to God. That's me. Take it or leave it! I am upset with these people.

Don't be upset. Yesterday Mrs Lim sent me meaningful slides, and those words taught me many useful tricks to live well and happy. For example, sometimes by adopting a different perspective, you see the world in a different light.

I was mad with that colleague yesterday morning, but I cooled down after a few hours when I was sitting in the salon straightening my hair & digesting his words, I realised how "kiddish" that professor is. He maligned others for his own wrong-doings, he couldn't see his own flaws and he'll stay in the same state forever aka no improvement.

Whereas for myself:
I spotted his mistake
I remind myself not to commit same mistake as his
I heard his criticism but not letting his words hurting me
He is in fact helping me to elevate my career ladder by not breaking the fragile steps like he did.

So now who's the winner!?
