Office Politics ...

Yesterday when I pick my wife from the office, the first remark she said was 'alamak tak ada aircond' ... dah lah kita tengah panas ni, (the car air cond is not working ... so we gets free sauna for now). Well after awhile as the car was moving and the wind gets in to cool the ambiance, she talks about what happen in a meeting. As someone who had been involved in human resources, administration and management for quite awhile, I realised that its all about office politics.
Its always a case of someone and or a group of colleague who actually feels threaten by what you do and finding ways to belittle you or finding fault on you. To me this are small people that tries to "blow your candle" in order to his or her candle to shine better. This happens all the time as long as you deal with people.
Thats why ... sometimes we meet people who are PHD (perasaan hasad dengki) without being confered by any Universities. Then again ... there are those who are actually with Phd that play office politics ... that means double PHD
This world are full of opportunities as long as one strive to do their best. Let your candle shine, because its the brightest of all. Be proud of what you do as long as you have given it your heart and soul.
To my dearest wife ... I know you have given your best so take pride and ignore those small people. Love you.
