LIFE IS SHORT... APPRECIATE IT!!!

Today at work, there were 2 colleagues that adviced me to steady down during work... Don't stress myself too much and don't get angry easily... It's difficult because it's in my blood.... But i'll try... Thank you both so much, Miss E and Mr I... :)

But what made them say that to me it's because something happened at work last night... A lady colleague of mine (from another department), went berserk around the lobby area... She was playing the koi pond's water and under the rain, singing and shouting at the people around her... Then when the security arrived, she was being dragged away and ended up being brought away by an ambulance a few minutes after that....

And this morning someone told me that it happened since she was waiting for the train in Ampang Park LRT Station... She was yelling and shouting at all the passerby and even the wall also kena!!! After her ordeal in the LRT Station, she walked all the way back to hotel and continue around the lobby area... It sure had frightened the customers but it was just a short shocking moment... Other than getting to know when it happened and where she had started her "attack", we had also heard about what triggered it...

It's because she have been working for almost 10 years in this hotel, and have been hoping for a promotion... A few years ago before i joined this company, she had 2 months cross exposure in sales department... She enjoyed the working environment there and so, she requested for a transfer... But unfortunately, her then boss, did not approve her release... And like any normal employee's mindset, if your boss wouldn't let you go, that means you are really important to them and also to the organization... So she stayed and persevered.... Stayed extra long hours without complain, always do everything as quick and as neatly as possible.... After so many years had passed, an opportunity finally came forth... An exec position was posted out, just recently.... She was very happy and expecting that she would be the one that will be allocated to be in that position.... But unfortunately, that position was given away to a much newer male staff...

I guess it had not just broke her mentally, but also her heart.... I really would not know how to handle it if i'm her... You have spent so many years in this company and you're not being appreciated... This really bites.... Hy.... I guess this is life.... Nothing is fair...

FYI, she is now being strapped down on the bed in one of the hospitals in KL because her condition is quite serious...
