Terminated!!

My colleague comes into the IT room after meeting the big boss. “I was terminated!” he tells everybody. A sudden silent then followed by the phone ring, it was the big boss calling me to go to his room. “We have decided to purchase an off-the-shelf software package; we don’t need the extra manpower for the internal software development anymore.” The big boss said to me.

It is neither a shock nor a bad news to me. It gives out clues through out the clash between my manager and the big boss. However I felt relieves and the burden suddenly flew away, it is kind of relaxed that I have had never experienced before. The only surprise to me is my colleague involved in this incident too, but it is also understandable because I and he were hired by the manager.

The manager, a fifty odd year old chartered accountant holding the post Senior Financial Manager took over the IT department early this year. Practicing his years of working attitude in MNC and corporate, and implement standards and procedures into this small little traditional china man business.

A good initiative with a bad implementation has ruined my hope to deliver my knowledge and professionalism to the company as a system analysis. Perhaps, hiring me is one of the bad steps taken too. Hahaha…

P/S: 1st post in english for my banana frenz… :P
