Let's Get it On!
I feel like I'm in showbiz. And the issues that are happening in my (work) life will be shown on today's Chika Minute.
This isn't even an apology or an effort to explain myself.
Recently, I learned that some people has been telling lies about me and how I work. And the bad thing is, one of the people who I have always (tried) defending when people talk about her, lashed out on me as if like I am some stranger to her.
I am not afraid of these lies. Deep inside, I know that everything that happened the past months was an effort on my part to ensure that everything will go smoothly. I wilingly took responsibility of taking care of 46 agents since October of last year, until another supervisor was hired. It's only natural that I complain a bit, but despite my own complaints and the discomfort of having to spend all of my team at the office to catch up on all of my work, I went through this challenge with all confidence that I can muster. I always remind myself, that all the hardwork will pay off in time.
I guess some people don't see that - they only see themselves and their own successes. I always remember what our CEO told us on one meeting:
"Strategy without execution is hallucination. Execution without strategy is mindless activity."
I always remind myself that - they may find that the changes that is happening to their so-called "careers' is too big a change, but if these changes are for their own good, why should they react oh-so-violently against it?Only shows that they're not flexible and can't go out of their little comfort zones.
I am pissed. Super. Pissed.
I have treated them with utmost respect and this is what I get back in return. I can always give up, but I'm not that kind of person. I have principles and they're my guns. I have always been professional ever since I started working. (7 years of experience at that!). This is what my parents has taught me. This is who I am.
Like I always say, I will never look down on anybody unless I'm helping them up.
This little clip will go Live on the Buzz this Sunday. haha.
Ahhhh.. that crappy line that says: "This too shall pass" is so true!
For the meantime -- go on, keep lashing - what good will it give you? I say, let's get it on!

March 6, 2006
After talking to a lot of people about what's happening, I realized that, I have nothing to be afraid of (I wasn't afraid naman in the first place!), because I know that I have nothing to lose. Unlike other people, it's not my thing to step down - my parents taught me how to be patient and how to be mature about these things.
I am still pissed. But besides that, mostly dissappointed with the people. I did my best not to judge them - being a team lead, I have made it a point to always think positively of people who will be joining the team. Every person has something to offer, and that is the best way to create a good relationship with everyone. And then this happened.
I just decided to leave it all be-- just like what joan has commented below, deadma nalang. I won't worry anymore about it - life's too short. Papanget lang ako. Sabi nga nung isang kanta:
"I won't worry my life away..."
All I know is I am doing my job and I'm not stepping on other people's toes and I have always been honest with what I do.
bow.

It's really painful to hear other people say bad things about someone, as if they themselves haven't got any imperfections at all. But well, that's how crappy life is sometimes. :)
Cheer up!
My husband always tells me: "For as long as you know yourself and you're sure of what you're doing, what you're fighting for will surely prevail in the end. We all have our own chance of having the last laugh."
My ex, on the other hand, has this to say: "You can never put a good man down."
While my dad (oh di ba ang mga lalake sa buhay ko, hehe!) always bugged me with these words: "Puno ang mundo ng mga nakakainis na tao. And you have two choices: either patulan mo sila or wag na lang pansinin. I suggest you choose the latter. Mas madali na, iwas pa sa sakit ng ulo.
At eto naman ang masasabi ni Ches, ang pinakabagong pantas ng ating panahon: "Wag damdamin, mapapagod din mga yan sa kakakarir ng paninira sa yo. In the end, they'll realize na di naman pala sila sinuswelduhan sa pinaggagawa nila and therefore wala silang mapapala. On your part, you'll come out of it stronger, and syempre prettier!"
Pero kung di mo na kaya TL, daanin na lang sa sampalan yan. andito lang me if you need help. suportado kita! hehe!
...don't mind those people... they are nothing but trash...
"Forgive and forget." na sinuportahan naman ng "Forgiving is a process .... " sabi ni Kris Aquino.
Pero sa akin, "Mata sa mata, ngipin sa ngipin."
Now, choose.
Anonymous: Nakakatakot naman... papano yung Mata sa Mata eh.. di nga sila makatingin sa akin ng derecho?Hehe.
Ang akin lang, may araw rin sila!
Up...
e di ngipin sa ngipin na lang, ung walang toothbrush-an!! hehe!!!!
sa isang banda TL...
Tsismisan mo naman kami ng issue na yan. share naman dyan! hehe!
Again, this is an affirmation that we are not in heaven, therefore we are not dealing with saints and angels. Indeed, there are people out there who seem to have a mission to step on other people's toes to get what they want. People who are totally and outright reckless. No, I'll take that back. Call them RUTHLESS.. who think that they have a prerogative to judge people. On your post, you said that you are never giving up and that you intend to stick with your guns(principles). I couldnt agree with you more. Yet, tell me really, how must one handle this?, do you shut up and ignore them or do you declare an all out war? My advice would be NEITHER. For the simple reason that you are not like them, Yani. And please never wish to be one. On some of the comments here, some are suggesting an eye for an eye solution...Yet how do really intend to do that- Will you step down to the level of these "bloodthirsty hyaenas". I say NEVER. Do not let them get the better of you just because you are angry. I heard you are PISSED. I think you ought to be..But then again at the end of the day, what sets us apart from them is our CHARACTER. And definitely, you have a lot of that, Yani. We, and your family can attest to that. So please learn to choose and pick your own battles. Not this one. It's not even worth it. Believe me.
P.S.
So, you intend to grab the headlines from Kris-James-Hope..
For that alone, aside from the kindness that you have shown, you have my admiration. Count me in.
Keep the faith,
Joan here
