Meeting Mr Ego

All this while, Mr Ego hasnt been very popular amongst the team. Ask why? Let me enlighten u...

For a simple reason, he is egoistic!!! Extreme case...

Not only that, he's also COCKY... thinks so highly of himself and feels he's on top of the world...

"Hey Man, Wake up your idea!!! There are many more up there, who are more capable and yet more importantly, more humble!!"

Here is a classic case:
*Email*
Date: 06.07.07
Me: "We have done ..... for this issue created by so and so... Mr Ego, pls raise the attached form for ..............."
Date: 11.07.07
Mr Ego: "I'm puzzled by your instruction... why do i need to ......?
Me: "This is as per instruction by xxx and the reason is due to ............. Should u require further clarifications, pls refer to xxx or xxx."
Mr Ego: "Kindly explain to me in Person"

My first reaction when i saw this was "HUH??? Isnt the email clear enough for understanding??" I did not take action on the email...

For a simple logical reason, if u cannot understand something, shouldnt u be the one taking initiative to ask instead of asking me to explain to u in person!!! Im the one who is PUZZLED now!!

The email was later further elaborated by another personnel involved and he finally replied:" ok, thanks." FYI, this personnel is also a middle-ranking officer.

Things then became crystal clear that Mr Ego was feeling mentally imbalance because this so-call "instruction" came from me, a small fry in the team!!

To think i have always been told that ranks dont matter as long as u are capable and do your work right... What did i get in the end for following orders from the top??

Being despise just because im are a small fry, a nobody in the organization... someone with no degree to show!!!

Yes, i do admit that i am a small fry but i dont think i want to allow myself to lose my pride and bow to such a person (so what if he is of higher rank, does it mean he has the privilege to do and say the wrongs things..

I insist my stand and if u are unhappy with me then we shall seek higher authorities for advice.

I shall not allow myself to be bullied ~Between giving in and fighting for my rights, i choose the latter~ We should not condone such behaviour & I believe the world is filled with more reasonable people than the unreasonables.

Though i managed to share this with TaT over the phone this afternoon, i was rather disappointed that he couldnt make it to meet me.

He has been working late these few nights and the record breaking timing was till 3am last night!!! *Goodness*

Let's hope tomorrow my "busy like a big boss" Bf has time for me... (i say this to myself every night but this week there are more disappointments)

We need to collect tickets for Jacky Cheung's Concert and also buy Clarence's birthday Gift (Din buy today coz i told Kel & Jen the model that i saw at IMM was nicer)
This weekend is too happening and there are many things that we need to prepare...

*******Do your best & let's hope u will have enough time and more importantly enough rest...Dont over-work wo!*******
