Today my story is about the social definitions of truth telling or opinion expressing. When things go critically wrong, and you just cant be bothered correcting it knowing that things won't chnage for what ever the reason. They say you are "not being corporative or proactive"
when you know that things go really wrong and you know what to do, but you fear because there are people who are more suitable and more likely (because they have authority) to do something about it and you back off. They say you are selfish. (be happy, you know what they dont)
You open up to your close friends and talk about the things that go wrong and to your surprise "DAMN friends feel the same way too". but they say you started bitching about it. (well its a skill of its own)
then you go to the top, express yourself (no comments on the outcome in most cases) and feel you did the right thing but when you return, they call you "back stabber" (yeah may be, but you had balls to do it)
and finally you decide to talk about it public in an open forum and they call you a "wannabe" (I love it)
You finally decide to give up and get the hell outtta the place, they'd thank you for your contribution, tell how much they are gonna miss you and the moment you walk out of the gate they tell each other
"poor thing, couldnt bear the presure and adopt to the environment"
What do YOU choose to be?
cheers
