A young and talent
individual who start his business after leaving his corporate job of
meager salary wrote following on day one of his business:
Today I am free to choose my place to sit and explore the
opportunities I always thought for, I thank to the people who motivated
me by making it difficult for me to do job by doing office politics to
extant of lowest level where I can’t think of to be. I thank them
because they made me think the out of box & be entrepreneur, today I
have no regrets of leaving the job though I lost a regular pay, I
admire my mentors who supported and trained me during my work days with
them, today I have no grudges with anyone who thought me as the obstacle
of their way high, I wish them all the very luck for their future.
While working for companies I have always given the desired time
dedication for the task assigned, however I really have not understand
where I lost, being not involved in office politics I have now feel was a
target for all non deliverable people, more to my surprise why the
people at higher management like to have such politics in the company
what they gain, you hire a person to manage the office politics or to
manage the work, why you guys don’t turn your ear deaf on complaints of
any individual which comes to you without sufficient proof.
Older employee who are seniors to the newly join individual could be
jealous of the new Manager who suddenly begins to question the works of
older team mates, and can make a blunt remarks or rumors which can
affect the job of this new employee without thinking of the family of
others who are dependent on earnings of this individual.
Guys we were all hired to work in one office for a company who helps us fed our family in return of our honesty and hard work.
Just to satisfy your small personal interest, you are ready make someone lose his / her job what satisfaction you get of this?
Everyone who is not involved in office politics is not always as
strong as I am to take a decision of business in short span of time.
Think of this fact many people even give up their life for your
personal interest cases of suicide due to office politics are increasing
in country.
Today I have given myself a target to create a place of work where stress will have no space to develop.
I have moved on with whatever you guys did to me. I forgive all for
your deeds which made me suffer and to part away with my job, and pray
that you will get forgiveness from you own soul by time you breathe your
last.
Thanks for taking your time to read this and if one person involved
in office politics changes his thought after my this note I will feel
have initiated one revolution to give my country a new way of working
professionals & better organizations.
Thanks
The above words have put me in to the deep thoughts that what al
stress working individuals are facing and have to undergo, why our
organizations are giving space for such stress and political atmosphere
why our HR can’t develop a program for making a great working
atmosphere. Why give a chance of comparison in same rank of employees.
When you expect growth employees also expect respect and growth at
individual level.
I would also like to share words of One Mr. Mukund whose post on LinkedIn goes like this,
“Friends, I am glad to inform you all that I quit Cadila
Pharmaceuticals yesterday. I chose self-esteem over job. This is the
company where the CMD, Rajiv Modi routinely abuses, humiliates and
misbehaves with his employees. No one can disagree with him. He openly
says, "Either get aligned to my thinking or leave tbe company." He calls
people to office at 10pm or 11pm for meetings which at times continue
well past mid night till 2 and then he would ask them to first send
minutes of the meeting before they leave for home. Now a days, his son
who is 15 year old, comes to office to review business performance. Am
glad to have opted out. I walked off a meeting a. Every single senior
officer of the company called me to say, "We are proud of you." Let's
spread the message so that no other person is misled to join this
unethical and toxic organisation.”
