LiKE... SERiOUSLY?
04.17.09 (4:34 am)   [edit]
I can be considered a professional in my field of work, and probably an tiny expert amongst my circle of friends. What I think about in my field of expertise, can probably be a highly recommended notion to others outside the field. But somehow, it didn't quite make the mark today.

It's a classic scenario of people taking help for granted, seemingly undermining my efforts, in exchange for their timely completion of their projects. I can understand the anxiety, but being totally oblivious to their choice of words ("I want..." instead of "Could you PLEASE") really puts me off sometimes.

To make matters worse, I'm the aid in their horrific adventure to stardom in their work. Now that I know I've poorly positioned myself as a stepping stone with scant disregard, I wonder about a couple things:

1. will I then turn into this doubtful monster of a soul who takes nothing at face value, and scrutinizes the real needies the next time?
2. do people really take advantage whenever they can, thus creating a vacuum in the sincerity country?
3. how can we all improve without hesitation, and offer a hand without returns?

Today's episodes involved 3 women who seriously need to rethink the way they live and work. I'm just shocked that one can take up a challenge without proper planning, another can show up to make decisions completely worn and tired and making no head ways, and one other who simply can't wait to get her stuff done by compromising on quality and time.

The third case I have to elaborate: see, she came to me for help. I offered, and wanted to improve the work some more which would need a day extra. She was unwilling because she wanted to finish up on Saturday. Now, this piece of work would require normally a week to two, and I'm trying my best to do it over 2 days, plus an extra day to polish it up. I'm already working overtime here, but the attitude was like... mind-boggling. When I wanted to help her shine more, she's more concerned about when she can finish?!

My primary concern has always been my product. There isn't a point to just do it, and I'd rather put some heart in it. Secondary to that, my name is tagged to it. By shrinking the timeline, I won't be able to sweeten the work.

Here comes the best part: after I explained that I was trying to improve the work for an extra day, she replied with a sheepish remark, and tried making a compromise FOR me if I insisted! It was like... this is your work hello?! And I seemed to be more concerned here?!

Anyway, I'm not gonna bug myself over this. I just don't want to start treating people who really need the assistance henceforth with a skeptical eye.

Wouldn't you guys agree that our younger generation has lost that loving touch?
