November 11... just when i thought i was feeling better after the past 2 days of being in a gloomy mood, here comes another bad news. i became a victim of workplace politics!
a little rewind...there was a job opening in a certain department in our office. i thought it was my chance to at least somehow start a change in my career so i submitted a letter of intent before October, they said they needed to fill in the position urgently and that internal hiring would be prioritized. i was interviewed by the asst. manager, i took an exam and was told both were ok. i even got a very good recommendation from the asst. manager, but the final decision is up to their department manager.
it's been almost a month that i've waited. news came to me this afternoon that they wanted to see other applicants, with or without experience, even fresh graduates. my application was kept hanging all this time!!! i have my suspicions but i wont bother confirming them, it's useless.
i've had my hopes up but i kinda expected that they would turn down my application. But reality can hit you hard sometimes! and it did for me! after holding back myself from crying the past 2 days, i finally gave in and cried. i thought this week would end without me crying over something i feel bad about, i was very wrong. i was not as strong as i think. good thing i was alone in our office room when i cried, otherwise people might think im going crazy as they dont have any idea what's going on. i have not told anyone about this bad news yet.
