if I said I Love You … What Would You Do?

Bitter

I am going to miss yet another team building because of my schedule. You see they always schedule team buildings on a Sunday and a Monday; this would be the first team building for our team and it’d be on the 18th and 19th but I cannot go because I have work and the vacation leave that I filed for [unpaid I might add] was not approved and for the life of me I cannot understand why it’s not approved.

What I was told was that the scheduler does not approve it and there’s nothing we can do … now that “reason” is not good enough, wanna know why? I have seen them place and remove schedules manually … so telling me it cannot be done is bullshit, they have to do better than that. Now you might say why not swap rest days so I can go.

I am currently working my 7th day in a row because of a swap and I gotta tell you I will not do it again ever. Joining the team building is enticing but if its at the expense of working 10 days straight then forget it; what ticks me off is that my team lead approved those dates that I filed for already but  the scheduler [may God rest his soul] rejected it.

Telling me I cannot go on leave because we are understaffed doesn’t make any sense, it’s not my fault we are understaffed, it’s not my fault people are leaving the account. I have seen them put a schedule when there’s none and remove it for these swaps am in right now … I cannot figure out why they disapproved what my team lead already approved of.

Now I am ranting here because I cannot tell them straight to their faces what I think … why? because I’d bet my soul on it that I’d hear the infamous line … “If you’re not happy with the way things are then leave”. Sad but true am not yet ready to leave … so here I am coming to work every day growing bitter and bitter by the minute.

They might have their reasons management wise but I as a minority  don’t get it … nor do I give a shit. I’m not asking to go on leave with pay … it’s without pay … let me reiterate without pay. Cripes!

Well … my friend said, Weng … you chose to stay so suck it up! So here I am ranting … thank you very much for reading and you have a nice day!
