I guess what Jenny eventually did would speak volume about her power mad cum hungry character. She is also a person who does not play by the rules at all. Indeed, as some of my colleagues would say, she is a person with a thousand faces.
This year, the announcement for retrenchment was made some time in April. It was announced that due to restructuring issues, head office decided to close the Singapore office and that the agency would be transferred to another company. This company turned out to be an affiliate company of the head office. It was made known that the reason for downsizing was because the head office decided to pull out one service which meant that the work load would be halved. This turned out to be a fabrication and a lie. So for those of you wants to work with the Vietnamese, just make sure you are not being made their carrot head.
But during May & June, Jenny was secretly conducting interviews for people to replace me & Hokkien Peng. This is outright wickedness on Jenny`s part. There is not a chance in hell that Jenny can explain her way out of it. However, I do hope that she has the ability to bear the consequences of her wicked deeds when her day of retribution comes.
Does Jenny have what it takes to be in management? Well, read on and you judge for yourselves.
Basically, the whole office knew that the name list was drawn up by Jenny alone. But, Johnny Boy insisted that it was himself, Jenny and the Vietnamese rep were involved in this decision making. In the marketing department, there was the new Assistant Trade Manager who was newly employed just to take care of existing clients, no need to bring in new clients. There was Hokkien Peng who can`t write a proper sentence to save his life if it depended on it and myself, the diploma holder who was doing reports for the department. Bear in mind that Johnny Boy publicly declared that his old staff would be the priority. How did they fare as management? Well, I thought that in such situations, they would retain people who could multi task. But their decision reflects how they took matters very personal and used this opportunity to get back at others. Well, no surprises here then. They retained the Assistant Trade Manager and Hokkien Peng, and got rid of poor old me.
Jenny Jenny, how to be a Assistant GM like that? Already a grown up and yet behave like a kid. As for Johnny Boy, he claims to be a man of integrity, so how can he justify and condone Jenny`s secretly conducting interviews with the intention of replacing me & Hokkien Peng?
I do hope that the piece of thread on Jenny`s wrist is meant to ward off evil. If not, then she is only shaming and dishonoring what the thread is supposed to represent and symbolize.
Till date, Jenny firmly believes that she did not betray me. However, she does not deny that I did help her to get rid of Eric. So she still owes me a favor but looks like she does not intend to make good for it.
I guess in office politics, power can make one do very silly and shameless things. Jenny is of a mature age but she has such a dark and sinister side to her character.
As the saying goes, you will reap what you have sown.
