Disappointed: Politics at work
Disappointed, frustrated that what I felt earlier the moment I read an email from our HR manager. As I mentioned in my previous articles, I am working in a private company under Risk Management Department. So one of my JDs is to report through incident reports all noncompliance or fraud committed based on company code of conduct.
Just last week I sent a report to our legal group about my co- employee. That was FRAUD no doubt if I will, based on COC resolution would be termination. It was a multiple grounds. Yet I was surprised when I received an email this morning and I had read that he is NOT GUILTY.
Sounds like in the court? Well it came from our Legal department. Upon reading my mood really changed. I was so annoyed and at the same time disappointed. I made sure to attach sufficient supporting documents as evidence to support my written report but why this is the result? So I immediately called to our Group head.
You know what we find out? The admin hearing was not pursued as the head of our Legal department instructed to the one handling my report to a draft " NOT GUILTY " resolution.
The one liable came from the sales group and since he had a high sales his group head talked to the Legal group to have some "NEGOTIATIONS".
So imagined how I felt? In my almost five years of working this is the first time I received a result like this. Usually accountable persons are suspended or terminated. My efforts was completely wasted.
Indeed POLITICS at work! It was so sad how those who are in the highest positions "USED" their power. Tssk, just like in our justice system. If you are just NO ONE for sure you will be punished for the crime you committed. Those rich and influenceable people? Well they get away with it. Same happened in my work place. If HE is just an ordinary employee for sure he is terminated by now.
It saddened me that they only saw the "Sales Performance" but didn't think about how sure they were it was legit? Based on the report I received I know he is doing something to boost the sales. Well, I hope they won't encounter a problem.
DID I CONTEST?
No I did not though I wanted to. Of course I always do my job but I no longer wanted to stress myself as for sure I will end up doing some " STRESS eating". That is bad for my diet plan. Lol! but yeah I was indeed serious. So I just ended up working with a long face.
Oh not only that happened as earlier I place a bet in "Weteng" STL ( small town lottery ) whatever it is. I had three number combinations which was sent to me by my husband. See he is already working abroad but this active in weteng. Haha. Kidding, we only place a bet like once in a month or not even in a month. It is only when we feel the vibes like we are going to win today. For three numbers it was $5.84 or P300 in peso.
I was already eating my lunch when I received a chat message from my sister in law. She's the one whom I placed a bet with and I paid it via gcash. Did we WIN?
The message says " naku sayang 11x27 tinayaan niyo, 11x26 lumabas. P56k sana" ( the number we bet is 11x27 and the winning numbers were 11x26. The prize was $1089.63 !
Aysus! Another frustrations! Kasayang ba. That money was already enough to buy doors and tiles for our house. Argggh.
Haha, no choice that money is not for us. Gamble was never good anyway. Though if you are going to ask me if I will still place a bet? Hmmm, maybe next month. Or would you like to give me a winning number? Would like to have it in my comment section.
