Office politics be damned I'll always voice out and discuss things out openly. Now someone who claims to be my best friend is giving me the cold shoulder. Personally, it did not affect me so much because I'm quite neutral towards my colleagues. I have a good working relationship with everyone or so I thought but it has never reached the stage of becoming best friends. She's the one who claims I'm her best friend in her Facebook. And now the boss probably thinks I'm difficult to handle too. I'm worried about the effect it would have on future working arrangements. Work would be a challenge without cooperation. I'll have to look at the situation in this 1-2 weeks and see how things are going to be. In the meantime, I better take a look inside the crystal ball and see what my future holds for me.
I can continue working and get paid if I want to but I can't stand the thought that I have to roll my eyes so often or hold my stomach from getting upset when anybody talk behind someone's back. There are only 15 people in our unit and almost everybody talked about everybody behind their back. It is not a healthy culture. Very Asian and very unIslamic. That is one of the reason why I can't get close to anyone at the office because who knows what they might be saying behind my back. If I can't beat 'em, join 'em or I can take a different path altogether. We always have a choice. This might be the right time for me to seriously consider AND DO what's been on my mind for quite some time. Now, where's that crystal ball of mine again? (Crystal ball: next post!)
