Incidents of injustice at work

I think it's a little disturbing how tolerant we have to be towards irresponsible ppl just for the sake of maintaining a "cordial" working relationship with another dept. This bad egg from another dept owed me something for a year... then when finance came and asked why we didn't incur the expenditure, after weeks of hounding bad egg finally responded with some smart reason as to why the piece of work was not done.... quoting high costs as an excuse... AND even that was so not the reason I had to take it as 'the explanation'... Well I guess I didn't have to take it if I really didn't want to, but deep down I knew if I didn't I prob would have a hard time getting this guy to cooperate with me next time... :( But yeah, feel so 心理不平衡!

Another somewhat disturbing person is fr pjt team... who has MIAed for the pjt, esp towards the 2nd half of pjt... And despite repeated emails/calls asking her to do assigned task; and to feedback if she had problems completing assigned things... I pretty much got ignored. Really dun understand why some ppl dun even have decency to tell me, Hey, I am too busy... I cannot cope; or simply 'Can you give me more time? I'll get to it as soon as I can". NOTHING heard. Then finally when pjt is ending then like agree to appear on day of briefing. And though assign her to brief apparently this lady will be on overseas leave all the way till weekend just b4 briefing. Win already lor. Thank goodness I have some really reliable folks in the team...

Bad day

This morning was just so bad that for the very first time at work I simply felt like sitting down at my desk to 痛痛快快地哭一场。。。It was just one of those why-all-the-difficult/tedious-issues-have-to-befall-my-town/sites days; one of those "your project team member tells you eh, the other team already bound their final report already" days.. And made infinitely worse by getting upset over not being able to manage time as well as experienced colleague; constantly comparing myself with competent individuals; refusing to really compromise on quality even when i'm at my wits' end... And then you can't help but feel so silly why want to be so miserable and stubborn.

Towards the end of the day when I talked to boss he shared some wise words (not his exact words) that I am well aware of but am terribly lousy at practising: Not to measure your self-worth using other ppls' standards. When can I master that...?
