Between Honor and Money
The luxurious way of life in a call center is a temptation that any ordinary corporate employee like me just can't just resist. Free food, service laptops, cellphone allocations, profit sharing, bonuses, name it and you have it. These are just some of the perks that anyone in the supervisory and managerial level enjoys.
Now, it is being used to me as decoy to give in to my big BOSS alluring propositions. I have been involve in her new business venture (call center) eight months ago when it is just starting and looking for prospect clients and TEAM for its operations. I have rendered my technical and creative expertise, made its collateral and marketing need as it starts to make a name in the business.
I was attached to her publishing business and happens to handles multitasking jobs in the company from its technology aspects down to its creative operations. I always been involve in major projects that the company needs my expertise and proud to say that I render it in flying colors.
When his son came from abroad and started out two major projects (call center and digital library). I was then elevated from my current position and join them with this start-up ventures. Having to choose which one I should join is a major decision that I should make. They both needs me but the digital library project was two months ahead than the call center concept.
As the call center completed its initial infrastructure, the pressure again intensifies. Our digital library is about to launch on the web and the call center is about to starts its operation. I don't want to sound as if I am so precious but may be they have seen my capabilities and talents that they want to tap for their businesses. Now, I'm in dilemma, worried and have to made the final decision.
She gets mad when I rejected her for the 3rd time. She doesn't care if my current project will be affected or not. I'm like the walls in the office that at her command, will move into want directions she wishes. She has this type of management where her words are Gods to her employees. But not this time. I'm tired of it after 10 years in the company.
I want her to realized that this is not all about money. I love what I am doing, I love my job and have dedicated my life to her company through the years. Sad to say, I am not satisfied to what I received.
Now, my concentration is on the development of Digital Library envision by his son who is currently my present boss. Though the call center is his, still I just can't give in my big Boss request for immediately transfer and leaving my current project behind. I want my boss to know this, and I want him to know my decision when he arrives. He is always on a business trip that's why her mother usually takes control over us and make a decision against his will. I will have no face to show if ever I just pick my things and transferred to the next office at instant. He is the one who personally requested me to join him with this project and needless to say, I don't want him to get disappointed.
I still have a piece that I kept in me. Its about honor to the person whom I gave my word and I want to keep it. I have to respect both parties and they should understand. I can't divide myself and I can't promise them so many things. I am one and still I am one, I cannot do everything but I can do something. Now, tell me If I have done wrong.
