Read across an article in a chinese author's blog, and it inspires me to write this blog. To read the original article, please click here(
史上最牛女秘书的下场).
The story is about a secretary who critisize her boss, the CEO, through e-mail who blamed her for his own fault. She not only mail it to her boss, but cc to all the staff of the company and branches. This makes a hot issue. Though most of the people support her, but those who support her are not the one who will give her a job. At last, she ended up jobless.
So, the moral of the story is that there is time that we should certainly have to bring up our
dissatifactions. Especially in universities, some lecturers are actually 'begging' us to speak out.
Anyway i think that there are some times and some people that
we shouldn't do so. We must know and we must understand the consequences of every step we take before we dare to do that. Just like this case, she ended up with no job. Don't you think it is
not worth?
Everyone has a line; every game has its rules. If you want to be in the game, you must follow the rule, because this is the basic requirement to win the game.
Previously, i was someone who doesn't know how to say 'no'. I will do
everything that others ask me to do, as long as it is within my tolerance. But lately, i learned to say no. Juliana has made me understand that tolerance is not acceptance. Tolerate will not settle the problem which i think it's right also.
But i would say that sometimes tolerance is also important even if we do not accept something. Take the story as an example, do you think that a little bit tolerate can keep the job with her? Maybe the situation will be better if she did not cc the e-mail to all the staff, perhaps. I hope i am right.
