People talk a lot about attitude, “mind your attitude! Mind your manner! Dress up properly! Be punctual! Be a team player!” really, I have to admit, some of and most of em’ are true and are needed to be follow in order to maintain a good reputation to others.
But, there is one attitude I couldn’t accept and for me this attitude shouldn’t exist anymore… it is the attitude of some of the higher rank or higher working officer or someone who simply think that they are at some higher point.
I’m not saying all, and I’m not pointing any fingers and surely I did not wish to disrespect any of the higher people above. But there is some… that have this kind of attitude. The attitude I’m talking about is the attitude of a person who is verbally abuse by their “mentor” or teachers, trainer, bosses, anyone that is higher than him, and then! That person will verbally abuse the people below him later on when he/she is at the higher level, even tho!! (Here’s the kicker).. even tho the persons below him/her is actually doing something right for the first time or wrong for the first time. (being wrong because he/she purposely didn’t being teach/told sufficiently so that the person has a chance to verbally abuse the person below him).
The same theory/thing that we heard of are with fatherhood or parenting skill. The saying is “Why your parent is being mean to you? Simply because their parent being mean to them.” Which is fine! because you are teaching your kids about the ups and downs about your life, the reward is you will be more cautious in life later on.
But, what annoy me off is a person like trainers, bosses, teachers etc. someone who you work for or someone who you seek knowledge from constantly abuse their power just because they once going through it too.
For me I look at it this way, You paid you employee to work! ‘Being scolding’ doesn’t shown in your employees pay check, BUT! if the person is wrong, slacking, lazy, or whatever that is wrong! I cant argue that person not to be scold, or shout at, By all means! Tore him a new one. What I don’t understand is the extra adjectives put by a person when they scolding someone. Words such as “useless”, “even monkey can do it”, “do you even think before you do this” ; and the use of even more aggressive verbal violent examples.
Gosh! I don’t even know where to start… let start with “useless”… if a person is useless the next thing that is going to happen to this person is to be fired, why? Useless! Why should one pay a useless person!. If you were still there after being called “useless”, then you know who’s the idiot. Please don’t tell me calling people “useless” is just to motivated people to do even better the next time, it just too pathetic. Its like ‘you really are crying but people see sand all over your face’.
Next, put similarity of your work to the work of an animal. “even a monkey can do it”… geez…come on laaaaa!! If it was really true, just hire the monkey you talk about. Don’t embaress yourself by saying stupid things like that. People will pity you because to think that you yourself were once being compare like that.
Because in my opinion people tent to think similarity that happen in their lives, like when you took a pencil to draw something, you will tent to think anything that you previously drawn, or remembering how your teacher or just think about drawings, then when you sort of capture the “how” then you would think about what picture you would draw, human brain think faster at a certain point, at some point you don’t even remember that you’re thinking about something because the information was fetch so quick. That’s why you felt so long to think about what you want to draw because it involve decision making.
One of the all time famous wording I encountered during the rage of a person that unsatisfied with my work is… “Do you even think before you do this?”… Oh My God!! You have got! to be kidding me. Do you realize if people say these rant to you there is not one good come back you could say rather than just say “yah…. Sure” then by all means necessary laugh your way out to the door. Is it even logical not to think before you do anything!? What is even mess up is the people that ask you ‘Do you even think before you do this?’. The truth is people who came up with this question is too exited to get angry. Again people will finally pity you thinking how you were once being scold this.
To wrap everything up, I would say: this is not the “TIME” anymore! To brag about how you were once abuse/scold by your superior! This is a new era! When people would just simply say! “This is wrong! Do it again/fix this” . “ This is good, keep it up”. People don’t want/don’t need/don’t ask for your approval after you verbally abuse them… not all people have huge passion and perseverance as you were, some just act like they have it just to survive the world today. Try not to make other people miserable just because you when through it too.Closing : These word are all mine and mine alone, I use the word “People” to symbolize people who are agreeing with my article.
