Bring it on!

TGIF!! On the other hand, I'm so not looking forward to the weekend coz it would mean that after Sunday, it's doomsday. Bleh! Apart from the impending Monday blues, there's also gonna be a meeting. I hate meetings, especially those that you know are just for 'paper' purpose. The kind of meetings that keep telling you that "We work as a team, we support and encourage one another..." Yeah right! Except for the few people who I know are sincere, the speaker of such lines are usually the ones who find pleasure in making other people's working lives miserable.

Judging from how the last meeting went, I'm so not looking forward to this one. I know he's going to make me squirm in my seat again. But hey, you know what - I did not write my previous blog "Carpe Diem" for nothing. I'm gonna speak my mind and not let anyone make me feel small. Enough of letting people get away with making me feel worthless. If they are going to put me in the 'limelight' I'm just going to put on the sweetest smile I can muster and come up with an intelligent rebuttal. It's no use letting these type of people know how angry you are or how much their brainless comments have hurt you. The best way to deal with these people is to show them that you have more class than them. Words are after all, more powerful than swords..well, for certain circumstances of course. I've always believed that if you want respect, you gotta earn it so I'm not gonna bow down to these people just because they hold higher positions in the company. Even if they somewhat have a say in whether you'll receive the next increment but what's a few hundred dollars compared to your self worth? (Okay, maybe the few hundred dollars could buy me a gorgeous dress or a handbag or shoes!) Uhm, anyways..I'm just going to face the devil straight on.

Like what my colleague said, you gotta face these type of situations and people openly in order to feel good about yourself. Should never let anything bring you down emotionally. Besides, there are worse problems out there. And I have conquered some of the most toughest challenge life has to offer. So what's a sneaky boss compared to what I've gone through?! Well..I ain't gonna sit back no more and let someone have a field day at my expense. He's going to be in for a surprise. Hurtful, idiotic remarks aren't going to affect me very easily now so... bring it on! :D
