About a little girl

To avoid having to keep repeating the same old story, let me just put it down here...


I was new to the company... I joined my GM and his PA for lunch initially and formed a gang of 3...  It was nice of the GM to bring us out for lunch/ pick up & drop his PA on his way home/ exchanged with the PA when she ordered the wrong dish/ brought her for every single meeting big or small, formal or informal/ pinch the PA on her cheek... It was nice of the PA to make the GM tea everyday/ share the same drink every lunch/ suggest for places to have lunch/ give opinion on everything the GM buys/ buy things for the GM's kids/ make muffins for us...

I thought it was ok... it was demoralizing at times when you were so busy working your ass off and all they did was msn-ing/ walking in and out of the office/ leaving the office at 12 sharp to "run errands"/ leaving the office at 4pm for only-they-know what... Finally, people was sacked... one by one by the GM... I was told they werent performing... okay... the story began when the Corporate Manager was being asked to leave due to under performance... the whole team of 3 left together with him... new people was being employed and everything was in a mess and gets elevated to the CEO... 

Yes, it wasnt so simple btw the 2 of them... and all of them in this office... they were both married-respectively and they are both together... they thought it was such a good disguised but everyone sees and everyone knows... there is something wrong... very wrong with the GM... i was being approached and apparently not the only one... i couldnt care less as i should be fine as i am always out with him and his girlfriend right? so naive of me... i was thought to be involved for going lunch together, in a threesome?! even clients look at me differently when i go for meetings... am i his new pets? what about all those things that he told us about so and so saying she missed him/ loved him? and whoever is not performing? all just right the opposite! words come ard and go ard... he has a reputation of approaching girls and such in the office, outside the office. asking if so and so loves him (i was one of them, asked twice, rejected twice) and also twisting the fact!!! but i was new! how would i know?! and i m here for the work and not all these things...

now he was asked to step down... and the whole of Corporate Team was being brought back... and he disappeared for 2 weeks while the PA got sacked by the CEO... you'd though it was such an embarrassing scene... just right the opposite, they though nobody knew what was going on and all these happened just caused people were jealous of him & her, that we should sympathize them for having to step down and pack and go... i knew this day would come... why didnt you, even until today? i almost broke down during that period knowing what was going to happen sandwiched in the middle!!! i m on the fence and i'm just there for a living waiting for a better chance to go... 

sad to say, until today at this moment, they still thought nobody knew despite all my hints... it doesnt matter who, where and why anymore, does it? it is about learning from the mistake... which had fallen into deaf ears... i dont like this idea of bringing the whole team back, with increments and promotions... you might wonder what happened to those brought in as their replacement now that they are back... beats me... play on and i m out of here...
