The incident that left my dark side feeding for more as the survival instinct kicks in. Really dreaded that when it happens. Well basically the incident involves a colleague, a boss and a head of security.
The Characters:
The colleague - a person who does not know anything about office politics. With a company like mine, the harsh and cold environment makes the Katabatic winds in Antartica felt like a fan blowing on low setting.Best part is, he don't realize that, his inability to differentiate friends from foes and the ability to rub even the most patient person the wrong way causes his down fall.
The boss - middle aged snake that know too well the game of politics. His way with words are so darn good that he can practically make the execution of Saddam Hussein your fault and make you beg for forgiveness. If only Saddam have him as his attorney.
The head of security (HoS) - a fat pig that was wrongly placed at the place of power hence allowing him to have the authority to ruin some one's life with one word. Other than that, he is pretty useless. He is a true blue royal puppy.
The Story:
On one bright beautiful Wednesday, a lady passed a very important item to the colleague. It was a busy day since the colleague was busy finishing up his job so that he can quit on the start of next month. So without paying much attention to the item, the colleague some how misplaced it. *busy wussy*
After a week have passed, the owner of the item rang up the boss for the item and guess what? My colleague have no idea or what so ever where is the item placed. That causes a panic. After a round of searching, they could not find the item. *how now how now*
And being the not so bright person my colleague was, he opened his mouth and as he is trying to explain himself, he dig a much larger grave for himself. The boss just wait patiently for the time to come so that he could remove my colleague once and for all. *shhhhhhhhh*
Another week pass by and the owner is getting impatient, without any other choices, the HoS was called in and people that were involved with the item was interrogated one by one. Yes, as you can see by now, the grave is slightly bigger than before because it required talking skills which of course the colleague does not have. *dup dup dup dup*
After the interrogations, the boss and several others was lead to the security room to confirm their statement by matching them with the recordings caught on CCTV. To the amazement of all, the CCTV shows that after the item was left inside the room where the colleague was sitting, it did not left the room. *gasp*
The run another round of search and found the item nicely placed on a table in another room next to where the colleague was working. It was at such an obvious spot everyone was dumbfound how could they have missed it. *urh urh*
Well, case solved and the story ends here right? Noooooo WAy! Two hours later, the colleague was escorted out of the office building by several security guards quietly. I found out only much later when the colleague smsed me to say goodbye. And at that time I was about to mail out an invitation to the people in my department for a farewell party organized specially for this colleague. The irony... *bam*
Reason of dismiss? The HoS claimed that because he suspect the colleague hence the colleague have to leave the company within 24 hours (yeah rite, he just doesn't like my colleague cos of pass history), and instead of defending the colleague (cos other than being forgetful, wth did he do wrong to deserve such humiliation?) the boss just explained that it wasn't his call and there is nothing he can do. *me fuming with flame*
Sigh! The world still spins, I have to take up the colleague's role even he have not taught me everything yet. Ready or not, this is a do or die situation. Argh! I can't wait to get into the place of power so that I can teach these two egomaniac a lesson they will not forget. *evil laugh*
- The End -
Life still goes on, I'm signing off now, the dark side is calling...
